Read before you plan
- Weapons, levels and stats are read from the WoW Forever client, build 1.60.1.70888, on November 10, 2026; this is the recorded client snapshot; later patches may change these values. Blizzard’s October 8 beta build (1.60.1.70291) lowered various dungeon quest rewards from Rare to Uncommon with new stats; they are listed here with their new quality and stats. The rewards of the new Gelkis and Magram quests in Desolace, which the same notes say were retuned, read the same in that client as before, so their numbers here have not changed.
- Where a weapon drops, who sells it and which quest gives it are Classic Era sources from cmangos/classic-db: Forever may move or drop some of them. Crafted weapons use the Forever client’s own recipes.
- World drops and Forever-new weapons with no announced source start hidden: one is luck, the other can’t be planned yet. Their chips show them; “New in Forever only” turns the second on.
- Weapons that need an honor rank or a reputation standing start hidden too and say what they need on their card: the requirement is read from the item rows. Forever’s own rank rewards are on the PvP rank rewards page, and a rank requirement on a Classic weapon may not carry over.
- What each reputation standing unlocks, weapons included: WoW Forever reputations.
- Casters are measured by Intellect, Spirit, Stamina and spell power on the weapon, feral Druids by Strength, Agility and Stamina: forms don’t use weapon damage.
- Every weapon and armor piece of the client under one search, with the ones this planner hides: WoW Forever item database.
- Where to train a weapon skill your class can use but doesn’t start with: the weapon masters of every capital are on WoW Forever trainers (Classic Era source).
