Much like [[Grim]], Evocators are capable of levitation and are nimble on the battlefield, seemingly swimming through the air. Its main method of attack is firing bolts of Arc energy from its orbs. If a Guardian gets too close to melee them, they can use their orb as a melee weapon. Occasionally, they will thrust their orb upward to create an Arc storm, sending bolts of Arc Energy that can partially track Guardians. They can also slam their orb on the ground to create a pulse capable of temporarily blinding any Guardians looking directly at them. However, their orb also acts as a precision spot that deals more damage to it compared to the rest of its body.

However, the most notable thing about Evocators is their support capabilities. They can empower their allies through Voltic Empowerment to boost their speed and attack. The effect is doubled for enemies with Arc Weapons and Abilities such as most [[Fallen]], [[Hive]] [[Thrall]] and [[Wizard]]s and [[Scorn]] [[Abomination]]s. This will be indicated to the player when they begin to draw energy from their orb into their other hand which they will crush, dispersing the energy to all enemies in the vicinity. This can be interrupted by either a powerful shot to an Evocator's orb or certain Guardian abilities that [[Void|suppress]], [[Stasis|freeze]] or [[Strand|suspend]].
