激怒威能 图标激怒威能 for a slightly noticeable Damage increase at a cost of supplementary boons. Recommended if not running multiple familiar utilities.

Instead of Fire Trait Line, you can run Water Trait Line, for increased Health pool and some added Healing, at a somewhat minor Damage loss.

While we don't recommend swapping off of 海盗女王古物 图标海盗女王古物, if you do not have it unlocked, or perhaps need more survivability, it can be replaced with:

Janthir Wilds Relics:

  • 克达之爪古物 图标克达之爪古物 for 7% Damage after using Defiance Break, of which you have plenty.
  • 悲伤古物 图标悲伤古物 turns your elite skill into a powerful panic button.

Secrets of the Obscure Relics:

Core Game Relics:

  • 雄鹰古物 图标雄鹰古物 flat 10% Damage to enemies under 50% Health
  • 潜行者古物 图标潜行者古物 is an easy to maintain Damage buff.
  • 流水古物 图标流水古物 grants Condition Removal when you use your Heal skill.
  • 骑兵古物 图标骑兵古物 grants you Aegis, Quickness, Swiftness, Resistance and Might when you hit an enemy with your mount engage skill. (Hint: the Skyscale engage skill will leave a pulsing field that will give boons on every strike!).

Rotation & Extras

Attunements can be swapped while casting skills. Use this to save time and perform the Loop faster.

Key Concepts

Evoker unlocks to 元素唤醒 图标元素唤醒, allowing you to summon an elemental Familiar.

Each Familiar provides a basic skill and an empowered version, and reduces the Cooldown of its associated element to 1.5 seconds (similar to 清新气流 图标清新气流).

This build centers on Earth Attunement, using 钙化之触 图标钙化之触 + 震地冲击 图标震地冲击.

It maintains 4 seconds of Alacrity per use through 魔宠祝福 图标魔宠祝福, as well as Quickness through 海盗女王古物 图标海盗女王古物

Calcify Mechanics Summary

钙化之触 图标钙化之触 is instant-cast and consumes 6 charges, which are generated by using weapon skills.

  • Skills in 大地协调 图标大地协调 grant 2 charges each
  • Skills in other attunements grant 1 charge each

After casting 钙化之触 图标钙化之触 3 times, 震地冲击 图标震地冲击 becomes available.

Use 目盲之光 图标目盲之光 in 空气协调 图标空气协调 to gain an extra charge and 冰霜光环 图标冰霜光环 in 流水协调 图标流水协调 for 1 charge

Aim to cast 钙化之触 图标钙化之触 off Cooldown (see warning below)

Bug Notice

Casting 钙化之触 图标钙化之触 too quickly can interrupt an ongoing 震地冲击 图标震地冲击

If interrupted, that 钙化之触 图标钙化之触 will not give you an Empowered charge toward your next 震地冲击 图标震地冲击
