Warlock changes in WoW Forever: every spell and talent vs Classic
Rotations & Guide · PvE · PvP · Builds · Abilities · Talent Calculator · Macros · Changes vs Classic
Every Warlock change in the WoW Forever beta client (build 1.60.1.70170) compared with Classic Era 1.15.9.69722: 18 new talents, 32 new or changed spells, 33 changed talents, 12 Classic spells and talents removed, 16 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.

New Warlock spells in Forever
Portal of Summoning New
New in Forever: was a Season of Discovery spell; learned later (vs its Season of Discovery version).
- New in Forever: not a Classic Era ability. It keeps its Season of Discovery spell ID, and Forever teaches it at level 60, so the comparison is with that Season of Discovery version.
- Learned later. Forever: level 60 instead of level 1.
- Ranks with a Season of Discovery spell ID are compared with that SoD version from the Classic Era client, not original Classic.
