You seem to think that a Class from 3 expansions ago should be getting money spent on them. Evokers are the new Buzz Lightyear and as such WILL be getting all the attention.
Itâs interesting, with how they moved away from support classes/specs in the past. I wonder if they want to experiment with it, see how it is received and whether it works in current WoW, and then perhaps add an often requested support class later on, the bard.
Iâm very curious how itâll play out.

Seems like a really cool idea is being brewed up here. Canât wait to see what will come out as an end-product.
Hopefully the devs will get plenty of coffee and cookies to keep them going at this one

Yea but DH are cool and Evokers are lame.
Holy crap thats gonna be a nightmare to balanceâŚimagine even more modifiers in pvp for some classesâŚ
I dont think its a good idea.

I know this sucks as an answer, but in a way Iâm so fed up with maximum efficiency, comparable numbers, many classes being pretty much clones by now with all the tweaking and pruning. Personally Iâd love it if theyâd dare to say: weâre going to focus on fun, on immersion, on classes having a distinct feel and character again, and things may end up somewhat imbalanced. Sorry not sorry.
Itâll never happen, itâd mean too many unhappy people and I do get the unhappiness. But that mindset has gutted something from the game which I personally loved.

They had it ready at launch most likely, but wanted to tie itâs release to story content in the game
Give DH to more races⌠Blood elves are lame.
Iâm surprised they havenât done that yet. Popular classes should get attention and DH is popular⌠right
Precisely the crappy attitude they should try to break.
The game should be about teams overcoming objectives, not another PI type whine because you didnât get it or someone got more.

well tbh⌠they managed it with things such as Shaman with the quantity of Utility and More that they stack on. Its balancable, the problem is if its Competitive in DPS its going to be a Mandatory pick.
I mean warlocks have upheld that for a long time, so its nothing new to the game. but yeah⌠this defintly would be Easy to make Overpowered or Underpowered if theyâre leaning into support features too much.
as much as i can say sure this is going to be Awkward to balance and will have issuesâŚ
no, WoW should never be balanced around âHow hard its to log on a 3rd party siteâ. unique, Class Fantasy and Classes froma Enjoyment standpoint should be above whats âMetaâ or âLogsâ.

Seriously, WTH @blizz⌠?
This Augmentation spec is definetly not heal, and donât seem to be able to tank.
So the Augmentation will take a place of DPS.
In raid OK, it will improve a decent number of allies.
But in MM+, it wonât heal, it wonât tank, and it wonât DPSâŚ
Instead of doing fancy stuff, you should think about a real range spec Unholy > Necromancer for the Death Knight and new customization for undead pets (but no, you put 20 & 30 feet to the Paladin Ret 
), give some range for both spec of the Evoker, give a third Fell caster spec to the Demon HunterâŚ
eeeh.
Theyâve Not stated its going to bring Lower Numbers, nor the % of Addition itâll add.
If this class is going to add 20% Increased DPS to every player. Sure maybe its DPS is going to be low. but if its adding 7% DPS to players⌠Uâll see its Likely just never going to be a bleeding Edge DPS And be among the mid packers.
it really depends, on how wild they go with numbers in regards to DPS added to players.
Just because u decided this cant work, Doesnt mean it wont. and tbh, Its better then another Standarde DPS / Tank / Healer as a Concept, its New. it may lead to something And could possibly change up the game abit if it sees success.
If it Doesnt, it dies til a major patch and gets Reworked.
I just want a bard and play musicâŚ
⌠or a proper necromancer.
⌠Or undead druids.
Yez-- YESSSS~

You donât even know their toolkit or talent tree but already decided they wonât be dpsing enough to be worth it.

Think about the support Shadow Priest of Burning Crusade⌠it was âmehâ support, didnât last long, and now itâs just a big caster DPS 
Yeah because they function on the exact same premise, right? 
If this augmentation spec produces decent DPS + buff other, whatâs the point of Devastation?
Other classes need more reworks or new specs, but instead they dump us a support and augment spec, who canât go roam quests & Expedition because they donât have group to buffâŚ
Lot of people expected a black dragonflight Tank spec to bring more resistance for this squishy class⌠and we get a spec who will need people around to be effective, but still squishy.
Dumb AF. While there is a Paladin Ret with more range than both Devastation and Unholy
Playerbase: âBlizzard the game is stale u need to try something newâ
Blizzard: âHey weâre trying something newâ
People like Rotigus âwhine whine rabble rabbleâ

Whatâs the point of 3 dps spec in hunter, mage, rogue if people are always going for the meta one anyway?
It is another dps spec like many others but, with a different way to produce their output.
Plus again you know some skill but the entire skill tree is basically unknown yet, you cannot have an idea of how the spec is gonna work all around.
The class was designed with 3 spec in mind already, its basically delayed cause of lore. No other class was hurt cause of this spec.
You donât need a tank spec to add more resistance. Plus ye tank would have been cool but i am gonna have fun like this as well.
