What's new in WoW Forever
World of Warcraft: Forever is Blizzard's third version of WoW, next to the modern game and Classic. It goes back to the vanilla era and adds three new zones, more than 1,000 quests, nine dungeons, two raids and a new race, the Skyborne. Blizzard announced it at BlizzCon 2026; the beta ran from September 17 to October 23 and the game launches November 4, 2026.
Talents keep the Classic frame of three trees per class and 51 points from level 10 to 60. The talents inside those trees changed far more than the frame did. Compared with the Classic Era client, the Forever trees in the calculator show:

The rest of the site: a guide for every class and race, each new dungeon, raid and zone, professions, what the beta client holds, and the launch details.
What changes for every class in WoW Forever: 115 new talents, 14 new 31-point talents, raid buffs made baseline, merged hit and crit, and each class’s headline changes.
Every WoW Forever race compared with Classic: reworked racials, removed resistances, the Skyborne race and all 56 race/class combos, including Undead Paladins.
All 9 new WoW Forever dungeons in level order, from Hall of Thanes (13–18) to Shaper’s Terrace (58–60), with the new zones: where they are and who they're for.
WoW Forever raids open Dec 9: the 10-player Barrow Deeps, 20-player Hyjal Summit and 40-player Onyxia’s Lair. Tier sets, bosses, loot and the 2027 raid roadmap.
The four new WoW Forever zones: Zephras Isle, the Riverglades, Shen’dralas and Mount Hyjal. Their stories, levels, factions, dungeons and raids, plus the new ship routes.
WoW Forever professions keep the Classic system and add 600+ recipes: what changes, food that gives experience, a free gathering profession, the profession window and Legacy points.
What the WoW Forever beta client adds over Classic Era, counted from its own tables: 4,832 new items, 5,166 new spells, new honor sets and set bonuses, with how we count.
WoW Classic Forever news, one topic per article: what Blizzard and the beta have shown, what it means for you, what is still unknown, and every source with its date. Plus a weekly recap.
51, the same as Classic. The first point comes at level 10, then one per level up to 60.
When does the WoW Forever beta start?
Blizzard has the beta starting September 17, 2026 (level cap 20 at first, then 30) and launch on November 4, 2026. The talents here are read from the Forever beta client, build 1.60.1.70450, and rebuilt when a new beta build changes them.
Are these the final Forever talents?
Probably not all of them. They come from the Forever beta client, and Blizzard can still change talents in later beta builds and before launch, so treat builds made here as early planning.
How different are Forever talents from Classic?
The three trees and 51 points carry over. Inside them, 115 of the 465 talents are new and 14 of the 27 trees have a new 31-point talent. Tooltips mark every talent that is new in Forever or changed from Classic.
Do share links expire?
No. The link holds your class, pick order and level cap in a short code, and nothing is stored on a server. When the talent trees change, an older link still opens: points in talents the trees no longer have are dropped, and the calculator tells you.
Does replay change my build?
Never. Replay only shows the first N points in order; the build itself is untouched. Clicking any talent or "Full build" leaves replay.
Why do some tooltips have a note after the text?
The note says where that rank's text comes from when it isn't simply the game data. Numbers that depend on your character are shown for a level 60 reference character, and a rank the client can't fill in keeps its text from the BlizzCon demo. The talent data section explains how the data is checked.
Is this an official Blizzard tool?
No. It's a fan-made calculator, not affiliated with or endorsed by Blizzard Entertainment.
