Evoker Features

Evocation Savant

Level 3

The gold and time you spend to copy evocation spells into your spellbook is halved.

Potent Cantrip

Level 3

When a creature succeeds on a saving throw against your cantrip, the creature takes half the cantrip's damage (if any) but suffers no additional effect from the cantrip.

Sculpt Spells

Level 6

When you cast an evocation spell that affects other creatures you can see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 + the spell's level. The chosen creatures automatically succeed on their saving throws against the spell and take no damage if they would normally take half damage on a successful save.

Empowered Evocation

Level 10

You can add your Intelligence modifier to one damage roll of any wizard evocation spell you cast.

Overchannel

Level 14

When you cast a wizard spell of 1st through 5th level that deals damage, you can deal maximum damage with that spell. The first time you use this feature, you take no ill effects. Each additional time before you finish a long rest, you take 2d12 necrotic damage per spell level immediately after casting. This damage ignores resistance and immunity.
