Rogue changes in WoW Forever: every spell and talent vs Classic
Rotations & Guide · PvE · PvP · Builds · Abilities · Talent Calculator · Macros · Changes vs Classic
Every Rogue change in the WoW Forever beta client (build 1.60.1.70170) compared with Classic Era 1.15.9.69722: 9 new talents, 10 new or changed spells, 34 changed talents, 4 Classic spells and talents removed, 10 Season of Discovery leftovers. Each spell lists every rank's damage or healing, spell power coefficient, cost, cast time, range and duration in both clients, written as "Forever instead of Classic". Classic Era is only the baseline: every Forever number comes from the Forever client's own data. Ranks learned above the beta's level cap (30) are in the client but can't be reached yet.

- A Subtlety talent in Classic Era (tier 2, 2 ranks). Forever's talent trees don't have it.
Classic Era (Rank 2): Reduces the chance you are critically hit by melee and ranged attacks by 2% and increases the threat reduction of your Feint ability by 20%.
Season of Discovery leftovers
Speculation: these 10 Season of Discovery spells are still in the Forever client files, but no Forever trainer, quest or talent teaches them, so they are probably unused.
