Below, we will break down your overall priorities depending on the form of content you find yourself doing.

• Cast Dream Breath at max rank when dealing with heavy damage.
• Cast Spiritbloom at max rank when dealing with heavy damage.
• Keep Reversion active on your party members.
• Use Echo for minor spot healing and to keep those targets healthy through by using the Echo buff on another spell like Verdant Embrace, Reversion, or Dream Breath.
• Use Verdant Embrace for quick burst single-target healing. Try to use as much as possible and on targets in the most need of large healing.
• Spam Living Flame only if the situation is desperate.

• Use Verdant Embrace before casting Dream Breath or Living Flame to get the bonus healing increase from Call of Ysera.
• Cast Dream Breath at Rank 1. Empower and cast it as frequently as you can.
• Cast Echo as much as possible.
• Cast Temporal Anomaly whenever you need to get a lot of out echoes out at once.
• Consume Echo with Reversion.
• Use Spiritbloom when multiple people need large burst healing.

• Use Verdant Embrace before casting Dream Breath or Living Flame to get the bonus healing increase from Call of Ysera.
• Cast Dream Breath at Rank 1. Empower and cast it as frequently as you can.
• Cast Emerald Blossom as much as possible.
• Between each Emerald Blossom cast, use Living Flame on an enemy to conserve Mana and to also make use of the Ancient Flame talent.
• Cast Fire Breath at max rank followed by Living Flame to proc Leaping Flames.
• Cast Spiritbloom to help heal AoE damage.

When casting Dream Breath, you would naturally assume that a higher empower means more healing, but this is not the case. This ability always does the same amount of total healing, regardless of empower level. What changes depending on the empower level is how much of that healing is upfront vs. how much comes in the form of a HoT. Higher upfront healing can result in more overhealing, meaning that you will benefit more from the high-duration HoT provided by Rank 1. Rank 2 is a nice balance between upfront healing and the HoT effect that could be good situationally.

As a Preservation Evoker, you have several healing cooldowns. You should use them as we explain below:

• Dream Flight is extremely powerful. This ability will cause you to fly into the air and heal every one of your allies in a line in front of you. This heals for a very high amount, but you need to line the ability up to hit everyone. While it can be difficult to position, the more allies you can hit, the more powerful it will be.
• Rewind is the most reactive healing button that Preservation Evoker has. This ability causes your allies to heal for 50% of the damage they have taken in the last 5 seconds. You can use this ability as soon as your party gets hit by a hard mechanic or something goes wrong in the dungeon that you were not prepared for. Using this ability as much as possible for difficult moments will greatly reduce the overall amount of healing that you need to do during a dungeon.
• Tip the Scales will allow you to cast either Spiritbloom or Dream Breath instantly and at max rank. This can be used similarly to rewind. When you do not expect damage or a mistake happens, using this to instantly cast one of your extremely powerful channel abilities can help you recover from very tough situations.
• Zephyr will allow you to reduce the damage taken from AoE effects by 20% for your entire party. While not every mechanic may fall into this damage reduction, using it for hard-hitting AoE moments will make tough situations much more manageable. Even if you are not sure what will do AoE damage, press the ability and keep it on cooldown to ensure that you are reducing your group's damage intake.
• Preservation Evoker is fairly squishy, and while you do not have great defensive options for this, never forget that Time Dilation can be used on yourself to help reduce your damage taken and keep you alive in moments that would otherwise kill you. While you should not solely use this ability on yourself, as it is equally useful in keeping your party and tank alive, it is an option to consider when times are tough, and you find yourself out of defensive cooldowns.
