I think this is probably the most important point for me. One spec should not be allowed to sabotage tools that players have used for nearly 2 decades at this point. It’s just not defensible in any way, and Blizzard has failed to make log hooks work even soon to be a year after the spec was first put on PTR. I’d even include in-game meters in this, as those are what the vast majority of players will actually be using because it’s just lower effort than logs.
Just to give an example of how silly Aug log hooks are right now, here’s a log of an Aug who is not even inside the raid being attributed (a tiny bit of) damage: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/jR3J8c1MKXtmBbfP#fight=23&type=damage-done
I’ve given examples of how Aug could be fixed in a rework over in the Oracle feedback thread (basically everything said about Oracle applies to Aug as well): Feedback: Oracle in The War Within - #27 by Tradu-laughing-skull
Another thing about Evoker as a whole: Empower spells feel incredibly bad to play with, with the inability to queue into or out of them properly, and the inconsistency in what happens when you cancel a cast part way through. This was by far the biggest turnoff for me, having done the starting zone twice, leveled to 70 once and then done 2 +15s on tournament realm for the banner.
It’s taking all the worst parts of both regular casts and channels, and not really succeeding in making you situationally use different Empower levels either. So please leave them as an Evoker-only thing, so I can just not play that class and not have to worry about them spreading to classes I actually enjoy.
