Build 1.60.1.70374: two level-60 sets lock to one class, and a big Rare-to-Uncommon sweep

Warrior and Shaman talent tree paintings from the WoW Forever client

· ForeverDB

The October 15 beta build adds 38 items and changes 177 more. The "of Glory" plate set now lists Warrior and the Spiritcaller mail set now lists Shaman, a new Violet Sorcerer's cloth set appears at level 30, and dozens of world-drop items drop from Rare to Uncommon.

Beta client build 1.60.1.70374 landed on October 15, after the previous build 1.60.1.70291. Kaivax posted that the beta went down for maintenance on October 14. No spells were added or removed in the files (two spell rows changed), but the item files moved a lot: 38 items added, 177 changed and one set changed. The headline changes are two level-60 armour sets that now name a single class, a fresh Violet Sorcerer's cloth set at level 30, and a wide sweep of world-drop items dropping from Rare to Uncommon.

From the game files. This is what the beta client's data says changed in build 1.60.1.70374 (since 1.60.1.70291), compared by ForeverDB. It shows the files, not how things play: the server can change numbers the client doesn't show.

The short version

  • The eight-piece "of Glory" plate set now lists Warrior instead of any class, and the eight-piece Spiritcaller mail set now lists Shaman (both item level 61, requires level 60, above the beta cap).
  • A new Violet Sorcerer's Vestments cloth set appears at level 30, with five new Violet Sorcerer's pieces in the files.
  • Dozens of world-drop items dropped from Rare to Uncommon, with lower armour and lower stats.
  • The 24-piece Al'Aketh set now binds when equipped instead of when picked up.
  • A row of level 35 weapons picked up a 'requires level 35' line and new damage and item level values.
  • Many caster items traded Spirit for Spell Power or Intellect.
