Preservation Evoker made easy! A Quick Beginners Guide!

[@Majotsukai]

Lord, I needed to see this. I didn't know what the hell I was doing! Thanks for posting this!

[@Bidzil91]

This was really inspirational. I was thinking of giving up on preservation evoker but I’m gonna try some of these tips. Thanks!!!! ❤

[@valiantvincent2621]

loved this breakdown, it was an easy breakdown but very informative and still covering lots of aspects. great stuff!

[@GravityDAD]

I want to level an alt hero - mainly for low m+ and LFR - - evoker is sooo intimidating.. id love to level one up through timewalking but im nervous for some reason

[@FSDraconis]

I just spent this past week leveling up as preservation in Time walking dungeons. Then continued to practice it. I have felt like something was lacking with using the starter build versus the tier set. Looking to keep at it and try to keep doing better.

[@danmarshall4812]

thanks for this, really appreciate it as someone looking at this spec for the first time.

[@murmer88]

I have chosen to get out of my comfort zone and heal this xpack just lvled preso and this was a vary great video

[@heat15sw]

nice video, i heal mythic raids but still dont feel like i know the class. this helps alot

[@loganmanagh2268]

Thanks Bowser, very helpful.

[@SilentKME]

What all applies echo? I find I can get 2 out before I have to regen my essence when I would like to get more out for better faster healing. I know temporal does but getting people to stand together in a m+ is impossible. I'm finding this class difficult

[@Bowserthehealer]

It’s def a hard class at first, so give yourself some credit. And the answer is two fold. You use both TA and Echo to get the whole party. And sometimes you need to tell people to move on. My most recent video is about positioning. And it’s so very important for preservation! Go give it a watch, I promise it should help’

[@SilentKME]

@@Bowserthehealer thank you!!

[@Cooliesftw]

Super helpful guide

[@MalikenGD]

Any reason in your combo around 10 min you aren't using verdant embrace somewhere to buff the dream breath? Also, what's the rule when it comes to when to charge dream breath / fire breath or when to just use base rank of them?

[@Bowserthehealer]

Dream breath is based on feel. Do you need to cover more instant damage that was dealt because more is coming? Or is it fine if they recover slower? And there are sometimes where lvl 2 and 3 would both be fine, and its all preference. There isn't too exact a science, if you wanna be a robot whenever you can faster cast dream breath to get back to doing damage thats technically optimal. Fire breath, its all about how long the mob is living and if you aren't worried about damage. If the pack shouldnt do any insane damage, just full charge so you can leaping flames (living flame after fire breath) to hit a whole 4-5 targets. If you want healing, always charge for pack life. Low key tyrannical? lots more 3's. High key? lvl 1 or 2 might be all you need. But even on high high keys I'm full charging if I know the damage isn't a huge deal. You didn't want the whole video if you're asking me about verdant embrace =P. I left it out of the beginner build. Asking a new player to think about an additional interaction is adding an extra step that I can remove with a different build. We just take 30% more dream breath healing. I want them to have verdant for any cleave or quick 1 player heals they might need. At top level play I don't even take anything to augment dream breath because the base value does what I need. Its great in pugs and great for new players to boost dream breath's value in the talent tree. But again im not telling someone to use verdant just for a dream breath boost. Thats not base kit mind you, you do need to talent into it. Less thinky = better for new players to the class. And you can rock this build into the 20's if you have good DPS.

[@Matt-ri3ce]

Idk if youll see this, but is this build still good? The import is out of date atm.

[@Bowserthehealer]

Thank you! My most recent full guide does have it. But also because no talents have truly changed, you can copy it off screen visually and it will be accurate. A new beginner guide will be on the way soon!

[@Telokis]

Hello and thank you for the video, it's very helpful! There is a part I don't understand about the opener, though: Why do you put Echoes on your teammates before the Fire Breath? Does the healing from Life-Giver's Flame benefit from Echo in any way? Or is it simply to setup future heals with absolutely no link to the Fire Breath itself?

[@Bowserthehealer]

So a few moves don’t proc echo. The big cooldowns don’t, damaging living flame doesn’t, and yeah flame breath healing does nothing. I imagine it’s because it’s a passive and not an ability. Can you imagine how annoying it would be if you had a mechanic coming up and your echo was stolen by a tick of flame breath? RIP team on a raid wide T.T

[@Telokis]

@@Bowserthehealer Ok thank you, yeah. The way it was brought up in the video made me think those things were related but it's not the case, you simply want Echo on everyone and Fire Breath on enemies, no particular link between those two! Thanks for clarifying!

[@TheCooderix]

@@Telokis He absolutely thought they were related and was just wrong, so not sure why he's telling you otherwise. He even mentions "You're getting a ton of healing from fire breath..." when talking about the amount of dot healing.

[@Joemter]

What about the hardcore talents and rotations? for high keys?

[@Bowserthehealer]

You aren't the first to suggest it, but know its on my list! After my Grand Finals analysis of the MDI I plan to do that and go over the 4 dungeons from DF for next season!

[@Joemter]

@@Bowserthehealer that would be absolutely amazing, btw i loved your video man keep up the good work

[@straycatt37]

Really loved this. I'm so intimidated by healing but I really love how presevoker feels. It's just hard to keep straight oh do this heal, then this heal, then this heal for synergies and then what to do in reactions to certain abilities....I guess it's just practice but not knowing how to practice makes it hard!

[@Bowserthehealer]

I have gone over this in my new guide! But go do low keys like 2-5. Push your own key and simply say you are new! Nothing wrong with that. Even heroics are a fantastic way to start!

[@GriffyGrifff]

i have a hard time understanding the large stun juring sanguine week...

[@Bowserthehealer]

This isn’t week specific, but it’s pretty obvious stuns are great until the end of life for a pack. So it should be easy to understand that at the opening of a pack you would use your oppressing roar combo. I can make a guide, but only the player can learn to not stun enemies on top of sanguine lmao

[@GriffyGrifff]

@@Bowserthehealer i totally get you!!! thank you man. as a fellow prevoker thank you !!

[@xilllllix]

perfect for me, thanks!

[@mikeoldes5150]

Finding it tough to play my Evoker with the range limits imposed on a B level HPS healer. mw monk is pumping l, resto Druid is S tier and shaman is killing it.

[@texaskeeton1772]

Yeap, evokers can't even have a single season before they get gutted, but resto druid can be king for several xpacs 😂

[@fedesotilpazzo91]

they nerfed temporal anomaly it doesnt work like that anymore so wtf are you talking about?

[@Bowserthehealer]

You either didnt watch the whole video, or didnt listen. You can still use TA for all its normal uses. But reversion and lifebind now properly scale through it. So reduced effectiveness. Hence why you only use reversion to farm tier set instant living flames, and to utilize grace period. its far more effective to use dream breaths, verdant embrace (as a heal), and Spirit Blossom/Emerald Blossoms with it. TA is goated, and make sure to pay attention next time. I do outline all of this.

[@cottoncandy3577]

Great video, but I have to say you should've used Lilistrasza for the Thumbnail! The little whelp in Ruby Life Pools with the Duck toy on her head. (ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥

[@Bowserthehealer]

I’ll remember this!

[@SavageW0lf]

Wonderful video, it does help. Would we be able to get an updated talent build?

[@GreatBransonHomes]

😱🤯🤯🤯

[@notkipli]

Great video once again! I'm always picking up such great tips and tricks from you and I really appreciate your channel so much. As I'm hitting harder stuff these days myself, I would also love a video on more advanced tips for 20+ keys.

[@Bowserthehealer]

Oh that could be fun! Great suggestion! And I'm always happy to help!

[@Hrakuun]

What plater profile are u using? Since youre able to see healthbars of party along with enemies?

[@Bowserthehealer]

I have an interface video with it linked, although no idea if its still working on this patch? But you can not normally get those ally health bars in content such as M+ and Raid. WoW defaults you to generic bars. When im running around town though they are up

[@Hrakuun]

@@Bowserthehealer i think i have the profile based on your video, however i cant get those friendly bars, unless i use default plater profile (shift+v only shows bigger names) :/ its super usefull on evoker

[@DroidX1337]

I think this would be great guide written up in your style...

[@kristofferleo6946]

This i very informative thank you, can i use it for raids also?
