Tier Sets
Midnight Season 1 Tier Set Bonuses:
- (2) Set Bonus: Eruption damage increased by 15% and it extends Ebon Might by an additional 0.3 sec.
- (4) Set Bonus: While Ebon Might is active, empower spells deal 20% more damage and cool down 20% faster.
Tier Set Discussion:
Our tier set for this tier helps extend our Ebon Might, both from the 2 set and the faster cooldown on our empower spells from the 4 set. With a large amount of our damage being from keeping uptime on our Apex Talent, these extensions are very powerful. Gameplay with the 4 set feels much smoother as well, which is an added bonus!

Trinkets
Trinkets for Augmentation are a bit different from other “normal” dps specs. Depending on the damage profile of the classes you want to buff, different trinkets can perform better or worse.
On-use trinkets
Wraps Of Cosmic Madness - Since we are a haste heavy spec this season. This Trinket has the potential to do a lot of damage over a short amount of time.
Emberwing Feather - Giving us a large boost of haste for 15 seconds is great with our cooldown. The chance to reduce a different secondary stat is not ideal, but an excellent on use option from dungeons.
Passive trinkets
Shadow Of The Empyrean Requiem - Great trinket that will do passive damage over the course of a fight. And during execute range of 35% health, the haste proc is absolutely absurd. By far our best trinket.
Gaze Of The Alnseer - Good trinket from raid that can proc intellect. Stacks can overlap and give you a large amount of intellect.
Locus-Walker's Ribbon - Great trinket for longer fights, it will give you an Intellect proc which will get more powerful over the course of combat.
Embellishments
The most efficient combination to go for early on is crafting a 2 handed weapon (Aln'hara Cane) with a Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt on it.
Your 2nd embellishment will be Devouring Banding. Feel free to pick what is your lowest item level item slot for the biggest upgrade for this as long as you are okay recrafting later in the season.
As soon as you get your hands on a good myth track one handed weapon & offhand or two handed weapon, as well as have spare crests for it. You should craft a 2nd Devouring Banding embellishment.
