Forever against Classic Era
- Rank 1: 132 healing for 50 mana in Forever instead of 132 for 50 in Classic Era (spell power share 0.700 instead of 0.700).
- Rank 2: 235 healing for 90 mana in Forever instead of 235 for 90 in Classic Era (spell power share 1.000 instead of 1.000).
- Rank 3: 385 healing for 155 mana in Forever instead of 385 for 155 in Classic Era (spell power share 1.000 instead of 1.000).
How it's worked out
- From the client, for each rank: base damage or healing and its range (SpellEffect base points and variance), the extra per level up to the rank's max level, the spell power share (coefficient), mana cost, cast time, duration, global cooldown and cooldown.
- No downrank penalty in the Forever client. Classic Era's client puts a penalty for spells learned before level 20 inside the coefficient (Shadow Bolt rank 1: 0.14); Forever's client gives the full share (0.486), for 80 low-level ranks across the classes. Anything else would be on Blizzard's servers, so the calculator shows Classic's rules only as Speculation.
- Speculation: crits count only on direct hits, at 150%, as in Classic; the example gear (1.5 spell power per level) is not client data.
