Augmentation Evokers are the third Evoker specialization added to World of Warcraft in Patch 10.1.5. Unlike other specs in WoW, which can be strictly classified as DPS, tanks, or healers, Augmentation is a “support” DPS spec that empowers its allies. But you surely must be wondering if you can bring more than one Augmentation Evoker to your run if their buffs stack.

Augmentation Evoker combines the power of Black and Bronze Dragonflight to deal damage and amplify the abilities of nearby allies. It’s safe to assume their damage will be on the lower side, but they will make it all up with buffs for their allies.

No matter if you’re a raid leader and you’re trying to fit in Augmentation Evokers in your raid comp, or you enjoy Mythic+ dungeons and you see this new spec continuously applying for your runs, it’s important to know if Augmentation Evokers’ buffs stack so you can optimize your comps. 

Augmentation Evokers’ buffs stack in Dragonflight

If you were unsure about bringing more than one Augmentation Evoker to your Mythic+ runs and raid nights, I can definitely say you don’t have any reason to worry because Augmentation Evokers’ buffs stack in Dragonflight.

Initially, their buffs could stack infinitely and some players even went to the extent of bringing 22 Augmentation Evokers to Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible with only two true DPS specs. Unholy Death Knights, fueled by Augmentation Evokers’ buff, reached 13 million DPS.

Now one player can be affected by “a maximum of four each of the Ebon Might, Prescience, and Shifting Sands effects.” This means you can still bring more than one Augmentation Evoker to an instance, but your limit should be four Augmentation Evokers if you don’t want to waste your group slots.

In a nutshell, all Augmentation Evokers’ buffs will stack, and in a raid setting, the buffs will be automated in a way to avoid overlapping and they will empower the allies who don’t have the buff. Remember, each player can be only buffed by four separate Augmentation Evokers, and bringing more than this would just be wasting raid slots.
