WoW Forever Trainers

Say what you play and what you want to learn: a weapon skill, class spells, a profession, riding. The finder lists the trainers with their zone, coordinates and a link that opens the spot on the map.

Classic Era source (cmangos/classic-db): every trainer, place, cost and level here is Classic Era data. Forever may have moved, added or removed trainers, and its client has no trainer table to check against. Which weapons a class can use is read from the Forever beta client (build 1.60.1.70291).

WoW Forever weapon trainers by capital city

Classic Era has 8 weapon masters in 6 capital cities, teaching 14 weapon skills between them. No city teaches everything: Polearms is the scarce one, taught by 2 masters only, from level 20 for 1 g. Each name opens the spot on the WoW Forever world map.

Wands and shields are not in the table: no weapon master teaches them in the database. Whether a class can use a weapon at all, and from what level each weapon type is worth carrying, is on each class’s weapon page, for example WoW Forever Warrior weapons or WoW Forever Rogue weapons (Rogues can use one-handed axes in Forever).

What the trainer finder covers

530 trainers and stable masters in 40 zones and cities of Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms:

  • Classic Era, not Forever. The Forever client has no trainer table: trainer menus and prices live on the server. Nothing here says a trainer is or isn’t in Forever; none of the 530 is named in the client’s own creature table, which holds only pets and mounts.
  • Profession ranks are shown by the skill range a trainer unlocks, with the level and skill the database asks for. The top range, 225–300, is taught by 59 trainers. 20 more teach recipes only.
  • Costs are the database’s base prices. In Classic Era a reputation discount with the trainer’s faction lowers them.
  • Riding trainers are tied to one race each in the database. Each one’s rows are the spells Apprentice Riding (33388), Journeyman Riding (33391), with the cost and level its card shows: database values, not checked against a Classic Era client. Forever’s own riding levels and gold are on the WoW Forever mounts page and come first.
  • Coordinates are the zone map’s own, computed from each spawn point with the bounds of the Forever client’s map. That client’s maps of Stormwind City, Mulgore, Redridge Mountains have other bounds than Classic Era’s, so a Classic Era addon or guide gives other numbers there; those cards show both.
  • Not covered: trainers inside dungeons and other instances (44 database rows without a spawn point on the two continents), Forever’s new zones such as Zephras Isle, and any trainer for the Skyborne.
  • Flight masters are not trainers: they are on the world map with every flight path.

After the trainer

  • Getting there: “Route to …” on a card opens the travel planner on the WoW Forever map with the trainer’s zone as the destination.
  • Professions: recipes, skill ranges and leveling routes are in the WoW Forever professions guide.
  • Riding: what each mount needs is on the WoW Forever mounts page.
  • Rare spawns: the rare mobs of each zone, their drops and the ones a Hunter can tame are in the WoW Forever rare spawns finder.
  • Hunters: pet families, diets and abilities are on the WoW Forever Hunter page.
  • The example view, Polearms for a Human Warrior, lists Woo Ping in Stormwind City at 63.9, 69.1 (1 in all).

Still unconfirmed

  • Whether each Classic Era trainer still stands in the same place in Forever
  • Forever’s training costs and level requirements
  • Who trains the Skyborne, and who teaches Rogues one-handed axes
  • Trainers in Forever’s new zones
