Evoker - Hot hammer power dps

Relics

Runes

General

• Maintain Circular Projectiles before entering combat by cycling attunements.
• Enter fights slightly after the initial engage to maximize pressure on grouped enemies.
• Prioritize fighting on nodes with multiple targets to maximize AoE Burning value.

Burst Combo

• Activate Hare's Agility to trigger Chain Lightning effects.
• Follow with Hammer 2 and Hammer 4 to stack Might and Burning.
• Apply Bleeding through Earth skills to further increase total damage.
• Use Fox's Fury as a follow-up burst once Might is established.

Elite Usage

• Use Elemental Procession on multiple enemies or to assist allies.
• Follow up in Earth attunement with Hammer 5 to provide Regeneration and area control.
• Water Hammer 5 can be used situationally for additional sustain.

Sustain

• Signet of Restoration provides constant healing while casting.
• Familiar skills add supplemental sustain.
• Swap to Earth when under heavy Power pressure.

Condition Management

• Cleanse conditions through attunement swapping and Water Hammer 5.
• Burning Fire provides passive condition removal.
• Use defensive utilities when under heavy condition pressure.

Chain Lightning Synergy

• Burning is applied through multiple Chain Lightning interactions from:
  • Hare's Agility
  • Elemental Procession
  • Familiar skills
• Damage scales with Might, Evoker traits, and Sigil of Smoldering.

Pros

• Very high AoE burning pressure
• Strong teamfight presence
• Good hybrid scaling

Cons

• Vulnerable to heavy CC
• Very limited mobility

• Heavy crowd control can interrupt your burst windows.
• Kiting and mobility reduce your ability to maintain pressure.

• This my first build. Got over 500K dmg in gold and silver 3-4 times now.
