Devastation Evoker Stat Priority

Versatility > Mastery > Haste > Critical Strike

Versatility will be our most important stat. You want to focus on getting as much of it as you can, up to at least 25%. This will happen automatically through PvP gearing, as most of the items you will end up using will have Versatility on them.

After that, you’ll be focusing on Mastery. This stat makes our throughput stronger, and increases our damage on targets that have more health than us.

Followed by Mastery, Haste is a solid addition to our character as it reduces our global cooldown, and increases the ticks of Fire Breath for more Burnout procs. Additionally, Haste increases our casting speed, including our empowered spells.

Lastly, Critical Strike does not synergize with our toolkit, making it our weakest stat.

When it comes to trinkets, the offensive option is the Forged Gladiator’s Insignia of Alacrity. Using this trinket provides us with a static buff to our Haste, while consistently proccing some primary stat to make our sustain damage more impactful.

You will then need a Forged Gladiator’s Medallion to break out of CC every 2 minutes.

Best Devastation Evoker Gems

Core Gems: Cognitive Bloodstone + Versatile Onyx

In The War Within, you will use a Vicious Jeweler’s Setting to add sockets to your Helmet, Neck, Bracers, Belt and Rings. Two sockets can be added to the Neck and Rings.

As Versatility and Mastery are your best secondary stats, you will want to both gem and enchant it wherever possible.

For your new unique PvP-specific gem, we highly recommend the Cognitive Bloodstone, which acts almost identical to the Precognition Embellishment from Dragonflight.

For all gem slots, we will use Versatile Onyx. This will provide us a hefty amount of Mastery, while weaving in some Versatility as a minor boost to our stat priority.
