This is a great spell, and use it as much as you can.
You can often get most if not all your mana back in a couple of seconds - it's like having a new life.

Note you can use this in combat, so is very effective in long boss raids when you have no more mana, and there is still a lot of hp left in the enemy. Do not use this while being attacked, because it is channelled - you will lose the effect in a matter of about a second, wasting the 4 min cooldown.(##RESPBREAK##)2##DELIM##Koper##DELIM##

In the expansion pack you can evo+invis, which is very useful. This loses combat, and gives you back all your mana.
Note that this will take about 15 seconds for full effect, however. You must not be attacked during this period.

One thing I am disappointed about this spell is the fact that once you get considerable amount more of mana than a mages base mana at max level (60, or 70 soon) - Evocation will only fill up about half of the mana bar. I wish they would make a rank 2 of this spell - it's possible to see this in future expansion patches.

Massive props to blizzard for untalenting this spell :)

One BIG question.. Spellhaste.. Effects channeled spells in patch.. what will happen to this.. will it go faster.. but not since it needs the time (For the mana ticks) to go off... will it become useless... or has blizzard thought a head and made it either not effect evoc.. or made it speed up your regen?

As of patch 2.3, Evocation, as shown by the new tooltip, restores 15% per 2 seconds for a total of 60%, 75% with ~~4/5~~ (taytck30692 is correct, it's the 2/5) T6 bonus.

For posterity, here was the previous tooltip:

While channeling this spell, your mana regeneration is active and increased by 1500%. Lasts 8 seconds.

I read an intereting cast sequence about using evocation in combat,

0.0 sec /cast evocation
0.0 sec /equip xxx intellect/spirit staff
8.0 sec ...evocation ends...
8.0 sec /cast fireball
8.5 sec /equip yyy spell dmg staff
10. sec...1.5 sec gcd doesnt affect you...
11. sec ...fireball goes off based on your spell dmg staff...

Commento di t1gg3r

so can you get a better return on mana if you spec with spirit gear or not. Unclear in topic

Commento di 104961

t1gg3r, you could before. but they changed it recently so now it's a set percentage. spirit no longer raises the mana regen.

Commento di 88768

People are also forgetting that you get an extra 2 mana regen procs because mana regen stops once you use mana. 8 secs plus waiting 2 secs, or cast a spell with with a 2 sec + cast.

Commento di 24122

switching weapons during the cast will interrupt the spell casting so it wouldn't work to negate the GCD on switching :(

Commento di Thottbot

it looks wicked sick too, like a mana tornado

Commento di Thottbot

evocation is best for instances, ofc. u dont need it if u want to spend thousands of golds for mana potions, but evocation gave u almost all of your mana back so u r more useful for raid

Commento di Thottbot

Ure forgetting that mage's can make mana stones. so they dont need to spend money on mana potions.

Commento di Thottbot

Instead of this for your level 20 Talent spell, you get Arcane Resiliance, which increases your armor by 50% of your intellect :)

Commento di Thottbot

You said in 1.11 it would be a trainable talent what does this mean? Is it like rank 1,then 2 then 3 etc? or what is it

Commento di Thottbot

Since Patch 1.11, after the Mage Review, Evocation is now a purchasable skill from your Mage Trainer at level 20. This means you do NOT have to use Talent points to achieve it. Instead, where Evocation used to be, Blizzard put a totally crap skill there instead, fair trade off i'd say.

The same also goes for Arcane Explosion which would come down from a 1.5sec cast to a instant cast when you used 5 talent points in the skill. This is also a default instant attack ability learned from your trainer at level 14.

Evocation has 1 and only 1 rank, Arcane Explosion has 6.

This,

The best NON - DAMAGING
Spell in the game.

Every 2 seconds, Mages regenerate Spirit/4 + 12.5 mana. If you want to know how much mana that is per 5 seconds, so you can compare it with mana/5 bonuses from gear or buffs, take the number and multiply by 2.5 (which is 5/2). However, this Spirit-based mana regen only works outside the 5-second rule (that is, only if the Mage hasn't used any mana in 5 seconds).

Gear and buffs with mana/5, though, work all the time, whether the Mage is inside the 5-second rule or not. Also, the Arcane Meditation talent and the Mage Armor spell can give a Mage access to some of his/her Spirit-based mana regen while inside the 5-second rule as well.

However, Evocation only amplifies the Mage's Spirit-based mana regeneration. Mana/5 gear and buffs will not improve your Evocation; only Spirit gear and buffs will. Evocation immediately turns on the Mage's Spirit-based regeneration whether he/she is inside the 5-second rule or not, and makes it 1500% more effective.

That's a 1500% bonus, which is in addition to the original 100% regeneration, so the Mage gets 16 times the normal Spirit-based regen every 2 seconds. Since Evocation lasts 8 seconds (4 ticks of regen), it restores mana equal to the regular Spirit amount times 16 times 4. In other words,

Mana from Evoc = 64*(Spirit/4 + 12.5)

This is, for example, 4000 mana for a Mage with 200 Spirit. Every point of Spirit means 16 more points of mana that Evocation will restore.

If you want Evocation to be able to restore your Mage's full mana bar from 0, take his/her total mana, divide by 64, subtract 12.5, and multiply the result by 4 -- that's the total Spirit your Mage will need to have if you want that to be possible.

Spirit required = 4*(Mana/64 - 12.5)

it´s good to use this whid mana sheld.

Commento di Thottbot

This is delicious to interrupt. :D

Commento di Thottbot

The mage community on the WoW forums is talking about how "broken" this spell is. This is because fire raiding mages who have 8k mana, barely get 1/3 of their mana back from using this spell. So, until you hit outland, this is going to be an AWESOME spell, but when you get an obscene amount of mana, it really wont be that exciting anymore. My friend is a typical 70 mage. No epics or 100g enchants, and she still doesnt even get 1/2 her mana from this. Maybe blizz will make a rank 2 or something for our raiding buddies :D

At that point, its no longer about the mana regen... It's all about the shiny light

i love this spell

NEW TO PATCH 2.3=

Thanks to blizzard finally listening to the mage community there is a light at the end of the tunnel for this spell. Instead of this spell being spirit/regeneration based and certain mages getting benefits over others, it will now be total mana pool.

15% of your total mana will be regenerated every 2 seconds for a total of 8 seconds (4 ticks, 60% of all mana). This is a fantastic change considering most mages did not stack spirit and even a select few would swap out their weapon/wand for spirit. Now raiding mages don't have to take a break to re-equip items. It should effectively double what many get currently.

Personally, this will bring me about 6400 mana back with raid buffs and i'm excited! As far as the spell itself goes, it should be used in emergencies but having an amazing spell just sitting there being unused is stupid. Use it!

Commento di Thottbot

I'm wondering, though - isn't this going to make Evocation far LESS effective for lower-level Mages?

I know my roommate, at 53, had a low amount of Spirit but was able to regen almost her entire mana pool by popping Evocation. Now, she's only going to hit 60%.

Hrm, guess there's no way to make everyone happy on this one.

Commento di Thottbot

in 2.3 spirit is not so necessary to mages anymore :) thats very good, because it regenerated like 3 or 4k mana to me pre 2.3 which really sucked..

Commento di Thottbot

how do i get it?

Commento di Thottbot

this was nerfed in recent patches so now evocation only regens 60% of mana :( im sad b/c i used to regen all of my mana in 1 evo because i had high spirit

Commento di Allakhazam

How do i get the "evocation" spell?

plz help if u can. THX

Commento di Allakhazam

Can someone tell me what is the cooldown time on this spell ?

Commento di Allakhazam

How can i get that spell? Its not on the list?

Watch your timing when using Evocation. Unlike Retail where mana regeneration is smooth, Spirit regen ticks occur every 2 seconds in Classic. Evocation only "activates" regen while casting if you have 0% spirit-based mana regen while casting normally (ex. using Ice Armor and no points in Arcane Meditation). It does not reset the timer on your regen ticks!

This makes it possible with bad timing to end up losing a tick of Evocation, or 25% of its value.

A good trick for longer raid boss fights is to have a spare weapon with heavy spirit, such as Will of Arlokk or Dancing Sliver. Swap to them before you cast Evocation and then swap back to your regular weapon after. The mana regen will be substantially better.
