On this page, we list the best gems, enchants, flasks, potions, and food you can get for your Devastation Evoker, based on your stat priority. We also give budget alternatives. This page is updated for World of Warcraft Patch 12.0.5.
Recommended Gems
The best stats for Devastation Evoker is Crit and Haste, so that is what we will be gemming for.
You should use
Powerful Eversong Diamond in one socket. Then, you
should ensure you have one gem of each type in other sockets to max out the
Critical damage effect, ideally
Flawless Quick Garnet,
Flawless Deadly Peridot,
Flawless Deadly Amethyst, and
Flawless Deadly Lapis. Fill in the
remaining sockets with
Flawless Quick Garnet.

You should be using
Thalassian Phoenix Oil at all times.

Optimal Consumables
Consumables such as Flasks, Food, Potions, even Oils can increase your power by a noticeable margin and are worth utilizing anytime you are doing challenging content. If gold isn't a concern, you can choose to always use them!
Flask
You should use one of these two flasks depending on what your lower stat is.
Flask of the Blood Knights - If you need more Haste
Flask of the Shattered Sun - If you have very low Crit
Combat Potion
The combat potion that we will be using throughout Midnight is
Potion of Recklessness.
This potion grants a large boost to your highest secondary stat but reduces your lowest.
Something to be aware of: If you have 0 Versatility, the negative aspect of this potion
will not occur.
Food Buff
As a Devastation Evoker you will want to use the best primary stat food
available to you. Currently this would be the
Silvermoon Parade feast
if available. If the feast is not available, or if the secondary stat feast is
placed, then you should use
Royal Roast personal food.
Augment Rune
You should use an Augment Rune if you can afford it during Progression, especially when you get close to a kill. It provides a sizeable boost to Intellect. We do not recommend using at all times, as they are often quite expensive. Using the current best rune is approximately a 1% DPS gain. For Season 1 the following Augment Rune is available:
Void-Touched Augment Rune
