World of Warcraft: Forever · launches November 4, 2026

Plan your Forever character from the game's own numbers.

Forever isn't Classic: talents, abilities, coefficients and racials were reworked, and item stats changed. wowfu reads the Forever client data (build 1.60.1.70374) and simulates damage, healing and tanking for every class and race — and tells you exactly what isn't known yet.

What's in this build

  • 9 classes · 467 talents · 392 abilities
  • 10 races incl. Skyborne (High Order & Windshaper)
  • 10,471 items with Forever stats of 15,768
  • 33 dungeons, 3 raids · raids open December 9
  • 28 simulated specs

Loot tables for Forever aren't published yet; dungeon drops are provisional until they are.
