Evoker

Dracthyr Evokers were made to use the magic of all five dragonflights. They fight from a moderate range, burning foes with breath attacks or keeping allies alive, and their draconic mobility lets them dart in and out of a fight or fly over the battlefield. Hover and Deep Breath are among their signature abilities.

Evokers are a race-and-class pair, so they also get two combat racials no one else has: Wing Buffet and Tail Swipe. They do not have their own class crest and use the Dracthyr crest instead.

Empower is an ability type only evokers use. You hold the button down to charge the spell, and the longer you charge it, the stronger the effect; a gauge shows the charge level, as with Dream Breath. A spell can stay at full charge for up to three seconds, after which it fires on its own.

Alongside mana, evokers use Essence as their class resource.

Augmentation arrived in patch 10.1.5 (2023), the first new spec ever made for a class that already existed, and it is described as the game's only support spec. The hero talent trees are Chronowarden (Augmentation and Preservation), Flameshaper (Devastation and Preservation) and Scalecommander (Augmentation and Devastation). See Specializations.

Evokers start at level 10 in their own starting zone, the Forbidden Reach, apart from every other race and class. As with pandaren, you choose Alliance or Horde there rather than on the character creation screen, and the talent tree only opens near the end of the starting quests.
