WoW Forever Talents and Talent Calculator
WoW Forever keeps Classic's three talent trees per class and 51 points (the first at level 10), but rewrites much of what is in them: of 465 talents across the nine classes, 113 are new and273 work differently from Classic; only 79 are unchanged. Pick a class to plan a build; new and changed talents are marked, and every build gets a link you can share or turn into a guide.
