Every rank at level 30 with 45 spell power

Rank	Damage per cast	Mana	Damage per mana	DPS	Mana lasts
Rank 1 (level 14)	40 (38–42)	75	0.54	27	30 s
Rank 2 (level 22)	64 (62–67)	120	0.54	43	19 s
Rank 3 (level 30)	100 (97–104)	185	0.54	67	12 s

DPS counts the global cooldown. Mana lasts: casting only that rank from 1,500 mana.

Rank 1: 40 damage for 75 mana in Forever instead of 41 for 75 in Classic Era (spell power share 0.143 instead of 0.111).
Rank 2: 64 damage for 120 mana in Forever instead of 69 for 120 in Classic Era (spell power share 0.143 instead of 0.143).
Rank 3: 100 damage for 185 mana in Forever instead of 107 for 185 in Classic Era (spell power share 0.143 instead of 0.143).

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.
