FAQ
- How many talent points do you get in WoW: Forever?
- 51 at level 60: the first point arrives at level 10 and one more comes with every level after that. A row opens after 5 points per row in the same tree, so the 31-point talent at the bottom of a tree takes 30 points above it. The Talented Legacy perk gives talent points up to 5 levels earlier, but the total stays at 51.
- What are the 31-point Paladin talents in WoW: Forever?
- Holy: Light's Vigil; Protection: Shieldsworn; Retribution: Unsealed Wrath.
- What are the milestone talents in WoW: Forever?
- Each tree has one-point talents at 11, 16, 21 and 31 points. The 16-point row is new in Forever, so every tree now has four of these milestones. This calculator marks each talent with the points it needs.
- Where does this calculator take its talent data from?
- From the WoW: Forever game client itself (build 1.60.1.70790): talent names, positions, ranks, prerequisites and the tooltip text of every rank come from the client's tables, with server hotfixes applied to the numbers that have moved since. Blizzard can still change talents, and a large tuning pass is planned once there is data from players past level 30.
- Can you change talents in WoW: Forever?
- Yes, at a class trainer in a major city, and that includes Legacy talents. The price climbs quickly and resets once per week. Dual specialization becomes available at level 40.
- How do I share a build?
- The page address updates as you spend points. Press "Copy link" and send it: whoever opens it sees the same build. Left-click (or tap +) adds a point, right-click (or tap −) removes one, Shift-click fills or clears the talent.
