Augmentation Evoker is an incredibly polarizing "support" DPS specialization. Augmentation's damage contribution in logs is excellent on top of providing by far the most valuable M+ utilty in the game. It did recently receive a pretty hefty nerf in M+, focused primarily on damage contribution. With this being the case, we still think it is likely that the spec will occupy a pretty significant meta game position.
The utility provided by Augmentation is unmatched by one singular DPS specialization. On the mob control front,
Upheaval,
Tail Swipe, and
Wing Buffet are very good. The survivability provided by Augmentation is where a lot of the power comes from though.
Aspects' Favor is incredibly broken with how much HP you gain from this on a really short CD.
Zephyr is great versus AOE spells,
Twin Guardian gives quite good coverage to those who are lacking cds in a pinch, and
Shifting Sands passively grants versatility. Augmentation also allows incredible compositional flexibility with the presence of
Fury of the Aspects.
Playing with this spec allows your survivability to increase by 1-2 key levels over another spec. In a season that is so heavily reliant on strong defensives, this spec helps cover a LOT of weaknesses. On top of this, the buffing of tanks and healer power makes dungeons feel a lot easier.
