WoW: The War Within Scalecommander Evoker Hero Talents guide

Warcraft: War Within Evoker (Hero Talents guide)

The Evoker is the newest class in World of Warcraft, and it’s had numerous ups and downs. With now jumping into everything that The War Within expansion has to offer, the class has received some exciting new powers via the upcoming Hero Talents system.

Hero Talents have been introduced as a significant part of this expansion, and they are designed to complement existing systems. Hero Talents are available to every class and tied to existing specs, with the idea of adding further viability and build customization.

Each class has three Hero Talent trees in total, with players able to pick between two, depending on which spec they have built into. Two classes do not follow this format, with the Druid able to access four and the Demon Hunter only able to access two.

One of the upcoming talent sets is the Scalecommander Evoker, which players can use if they are playing Augmentation or Devastation specs. Here’s everything you need to know.

All Hero Talent trees follow the same format, with a Keystone Talent at the beginning and a Capstone Talent at the end. For Scalecommander Evoker, the complete list of Hero Talents on offer is as follows:
