SixtySpec

New Abilities in WoW Forever

Forever changes more than talents. Comparing every class spellbook in the beta client with Classic Era, 62 abilities are new, 49 changed (ranks, levels, or no longer needing a talent) and 13 are gone. Several old talents are now simply trained.

Learn levels are the client's minimum spell level (SpellLevels), not confirmed trainer levels: trainer lists live on Blizzard's servers. Data from beta build 1.60.1.70205 compared with Classic Era build 1.15.9.70003.

About the data

Class abilities come from the class skill lines in the client (SkillLineAbility, SpellLevels and spell tooltips) via wago.tools. Talent-learned abilities are included and marked. Matching with Classic Era is by name, so a renamed ability can show up as both new and removed. Last updated 2026-10-02.
