Rotation & Extras

Key Concepts

Heal Evoker is a Secondary Support focused on providing Healing, Condition Cleanses, and Auras to allies.

Evoker's unique mechanic is the Familiar. As our F5 skill, we will be using 溅射冲击 图标溅射冲击 to massively Heal allies at critical moments, while also getting a passive Heal increase buff due to 魔宠威勇 图标魔宠威勇. Familiar's passive skill has no Cooldown, but you must obtain six charges to use it :

  • Using any weapon skill will grants one charge.
  • Using weapon skills matching the Familiar's attunement grants two charges instead.
  • Activating this skill three times grants access to 洪水倾泻 图标洪水倾泻, an empowered version of the Familiar's passive skill.

Heal Evoker generates Might, Regeneration and Protection but also can fill in Stability when needed.

Using Blast Finishers in Combo Fields will Cleanse Conditions from allies thanks to 金刚石肤 图标金刚石肤, but also largely Heal them due to 卡拉科萨古物 图标卡拉科萨古物. It is vital to rotate our Blast Finishers Cooldowns efficiently.

Your main goal is to rotate through your Attunements to refill your Familiar's skill as much as possible, maintain Aura uptime alongside boons, Condition Cleanses, provide burst Healing and defensive utility to your group when needed.

Lastly, you can also Revive any Downed allies with 复元雕文 图标复元雕文.

Boons and Supporting Allies

Buffing

If your Commander asks for Fire Combo Fields, start your fights on Fire Attunement and place 熔岩喷泉 图标熔岩喷泉 on your squad, followed by any of the Combo Blasts of your kit.

During the fights, you should use 狐狸怒火 图标狐狸怒火 off Cooldown to provide Might and Fury.

洪水倾泻 图标洪水倾泻 is one of your strongest Cooldown, providing a massive burst of Healing and Condition Cleanse. You gain access to that skill after charging three times your Familiar's Passive, 溅射冲击 图标溅射冲击. 复苏回春 图标复苏回春 helps speeding up that process by instantly refilling once our passive skill.

Air Attunement brings the very powerful Crowd Control 静电力场 图标静电力场 with its high Range and 10 targets cap; Earth Attunement also has access to one with 大地动荡 图标大地动荡.

Earth Attunement combo 磁力光环 图标磁力光环逆向转化大地 图标逆向转化大地 must be used whenever its possible for extra Stability to our party.

元素队列 图标元素队列 is your elite skill, granting Resistance to allies while casting every Familiar's Active skills. You should use it to get another 洪水倾泻 图标洪水倾泻 off, but also for the decent Crowd Control from 震地冲击 图标震地冲击.

Healing

A big part of your Healing comes from 卡拉科萨古物 图标卡拉科萨古物 which Heals when performing a Blast Finisher in a Combo Field. Water Attunement will greatly help us aswell with to get massive huge Heal bursts.

Cleansing Conditions

A big part of your Condition Cleanse comes from 金刚石肤 图标金刚石肤 when performing a Blast Finisher in a Combo Field, but we still have various sources to deal with heavy pressure :
