What's new on ForeverDB
New pages, tools and features on ForeverDB, and updates to its data from the WoW Forever client, newest first. For what's new in the game itself, see What's new in Forever; for Blizzard's news, News. Get the newsletter to hear about it by email.
November 2026
- Library books: where the other 27 are, as leads : Players have looted 13 of the 40 library books in Forever. For 27 of the rest, the library books page now shows where other sites say they are (zone, coordinates and what the spot looks like), marked as leads: nobody with the ForeverDB addon has confirmed them. The 13 spots our players found match those sites' coordinates, so the leads look reliable. Eight of the level 60 books are handed in to the Mage trainers, not the librarians. Loot one with the addon and the page shows it as seen by players.
- ForeverDB addon 0.60.3: routes show on the map again, and they're the quick route : Calculated routes for trips and gathering loops were only being drawn on Blizzard's own map, which ForeverDB's map covers, so they vanished. They show on ForeverDB's map again. Routes are now the quick route by default: the shortest walk, with a warning where it passes danger. Safest and Balanced are still choices in Settings.
- ForeverDB addon 0.60.2: the quest route is back, and a cleaner map : The quest plan's route is back on ForeverDB's map: a gold line from step to step, now also from one zone into the next. The map starts with only the quests and your quest plan; the other layers (flight masters, dungeons, services, gathering, rares and the rest) are off until you switch them on under Layers.
- ForeverDB addon 0.60.1: a search box at the top of the window : The ForeverDB window now has a search box at the top of every page. Type an item, a quest or a question such as "when can I dual wield" and press Enter.
- ForeverDB addon 0.60.0: ask Search in your own words : The addon's Search now answers plain questions: "when can I dual wield", "can I wear plate", "when do I get Whirlwind", "mortal strike" or "what is the level cap". You get your class's level (and the other classes'), when the trainer teaches a spell, how many points a talent needs, or ForeverDB's FAQ answer. It also finds quests by name, and "best weapon" lists your best-in-slot weapons.
- ForeverDB addon 0.59.2: the Helper's next dungeon card shows the dungeon : The Helper's Today page showed an empty box where your next dungeon's picture should be. It now shows the dungeon's loading-screen art, as the Dungeons page does.
- ForeverDB addon 0.59.1: the quest plan includes quests the NPC is offering you : The quest plan could leave out a quest the NPC in front of you was offering, such as Rorian the Dayseeker's Elemental Unrest on Zephras Isle, because it read "players were offered it after Harmony in Balance" as a rule. When the game offers you a quest, the plan now counts it as available, and that kind of order no longer hides a quest when the earlier one isn't for your character.
- Dungeon maps show packs and patrols : The dungeon maps now show every pack of mobs, coloured by how dangerous it is, and the paths patrols walk. Click a pack to see what's in it, what the mobs do and suggested marks. The positions and abilities come from Classic's data and are labelled that way; what an ability does is read from the Forever client.
- Quest chains as diagrams, on the site and in the addon : Every quest page now draws its chain: the quests before it, the ones after it, and the quests you can only do while it's in your log, beside it in the order you do them, so a step like Proving Allegiance's candle can't be missed. A note above the diagram says what to do before the objectives. In the ForeverDB addon (0.59.0), the Quest chain button on a quest's guide shows the same diagram with your progress: done, in your log, available or not yet. Quests with known gaps in our data carry a mark, and /quest-issues lists every gap, the quests most players do first.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.9: quest items get their names, and 162 more quests show where to go : Some quests' item objectives were noted without the item's name, because the game shows "0/1" with no name until the item is loaded: A Moon-Kissed Blade's four items came through blank. The addon now reads the quest log again a few seconds after you accept a quest. The quest map areas players' games reported now count as objective spots too, so 162 more quests show where their objectives are.
- DPS simulator: the same boss fight as the other WoW Forever sims : At level 60 the simulator now runs a 3-minute fight against a level 63 boss with raid buffs and the raid's armour debuffs (Sunder Armor, Curse of Recklessness, Faerie Fire), with pre-raid gear for every spec, the setup the other WoW Forever simulators rank with. Before, casters wore raid gear and melee didn't, and the boss kept all its armour, which put Shadow Priest on top. It also has Bloodthirst, Mortal Strike, Whirlwind and Flurry for Warriors, Instant Poison for Rogues, Ferocious Bite for Feral, Shadowform for Shadow, and Bestial Wrath and Frenzy for Beast Mastery. Its order now agrees with the other sims about as well as they agree with each other. The other sims' rankings on /dps-rankings are re-read every week.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.8: the quest plan keeps the steps a quest doesn't list : Some quests need steps their objectives don't mention. Proving Allegiance only says to kill Lillith Nefara, but she only comes when you take a Candle of Beckoning from the Crate of Candles and use it at her table, so the plan sent you to the hand-in without the candle. Quests like this now get those steps in order before their own work.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.7: the arrow goes to the work, not the hand-in NPC : For some quests the game's own quest marker sits on the hand-in NPC instead of where the work is, so the arrow took you to the NPC before you had the items. When that happens and ForeverDB knows where the work is, the arrow now goes there.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.6: the quest plan does the work first, and hand-ins show on the map : The quest plan could send you straight to a hand-in without the items the quest asks for, when the game hadn't passed on the quest's objectives yet: it now uses ForeverDB's own objectives for that quest. And finished quests' hand-ins could be missing from the world map, even for Classic quests such as Hungry!: ForeverDB's hand-in location now shows there whenever Blizzard's map doesn't mark it.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.5: the first weather numbers : WoW Forever's weather is new, and the game now tells addons whether it's clear, raining, snowing or a sandstorm. The addon adds the weather in your zone (the zone, the kind of weather, how strong and the minute) to the anonymous game facts it already notes, so we can learn how often each zone gets what. Nothing changes on screen, and the "Note anonymous game facts" setting switches it off.
- Auction house: market movements, deals and what to farm : The auction house page now shows how the market is moving: each category (herbs, ore, cloth, potions and more) against its usual prices, the biggest risers and fallers since the day before or against the last week, deals listed well under their usual price, the gathering materials worth the most to farm, and a 7-day line for the most traded items. Pick a whole region's auction houses or just your own, and look up any item to see its prices everywhere and its chart. Prices from one player's scans are marked "not confirmed".
- DPS and HPS rankings, updated every day : A new page ranks every damage spec at level 60 by its simulated DPS, worked out by our DPS simulator on WoW Forever's own game data, with what changed since yesterday, in the last week and in the last month, and a line over time for each spec. Players' DPS and HPS by class from uploaded combat logs join it as more logs come in.
- Name generator: first and second names for every race : The new name generator makes full WoW Forever names, both parts of the two-name system, for any race (Skyborne included), male or female, from the game's own name lists or new names in your race's style. Pick a class and the second names lean towards its words. Logged in, you can keep one family name on every character, and keep the names you like. Every name is checked against the game's name rules, and there's a box to check a name you thought of yourself.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.4: the quest guide gets straight to the quest : The addon's quest guide no longer opens with a paragraph explaining what it is every time: the quest starts right under the search box.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.3: Find me on the map, and no more "Kill" on talk objectives : The map has a Find me button beside Layers: it moves the map to you and pulses a gold ring round your arrow, so you can spot yourself between the quest icons. The quest plan also stopped putting "Kill" in front of objectives that aren't kills ("Kill 4 Deathguards motivated", "Kill 1 Speak to ..."): those keep the game's own words now.
- Camping 101 quests: the missing step is in the guides now : Camping 101: Cooking only completes once you click Train at the cook (Apprentice Cooking, 1 silver), and the profession Camping 101 quests need that profession at skill 20 before the trainer takes them. The quest pages and the ForeverDB addon 0.58.2 now show that step, with your own skill in game, and the camp item each profession's quest teaches.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.1: run through the raid plan before a boss, and see it on your minimap : The raid leader or an assistant presses "Go through the plan with the raid" and every raid member's plan window opens big on that boss, then follows the leader step by step until the pull. Inside the raid, the step's markers, notes and routes also show on the game's own minimap, where it gives your position. Notes on the plan show when you point at them, and the window has an Expand button.
- ForeverDB addon 0.58.0: the raid plan mini map : Your raid leader's drawn plan for each boss, in a small window over the raid's map: the boss, the step and its note. When the raid leader or an assistant moves to the next step, every raid member's window follows. The plans come with the raid code from your guild's event, or straight from the leader's ForeverDB.
- Raid plans and Raid night live for guilds : Raid leaders can now draw their own plan for every boss on the raid's real map, in guild tools under Raid plans: freehand routes, curved arrows, circles measured in yards, areas, raid markers, roles and players, in steps with a note each and a written guide. Pin notes on the map or on any drawing, like comments in a spreadsheet: a small red flag, and the note shows when you point at it. Press Show to the raid and every member's map follows the step. The guild page's Raid night live page now shows that plan live in a mini map, and a live log board from a raider's Live logging: kills, wipes, deaths and the meters while the fight is on.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.26: the map shows what the game shows over the NPC : Where you hand in a quest you haven't finished is now a grey question mark on the map and the minimap; yellow means ready to hand in, as in the game's own markers. The quest plan's numbered steps follow the same rule, a follow-up that isn't open yet has a greyed exclamation mark, and a hand-in or pick-up the plan already numbers isn't drawn a second time.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.25: no more follow-up quests under "Pick up on the way" too early : The Leveling window listed quests you couldn't take yet under "Pick up on the way", such as Infiltrating the Cult while The Criminal Element was still in your log. A follow-up now shows there only once you've handed in the quest before it.
- How to run it: written guides for 7 raids and 19 dungeons : Molten Core, Onyxia, Blackwing Lair, Zul'Gurub, both Ahn'Qiraj raids, Naxxramas and 19 dungeons now have a written guide on their page: what to bring, who you need, how to get in, and for every boss the plan step by step with separate tips for tanks, healers and damage dealers and what usually wipes groups. They're based on how Classic plays and say so; when players' logs show Forever changed a fight, the boss cards say so first. The map now sits at the top of every dungeon page, and a guild's next raid and raid nights link straight to the guide.
- Guild pages: a new Cinematic look, raid groups and performance reports : Guild pages have a new layout to pick, Cinematic: a full-width header with your raid week in each visitor's own time, raid progress with every boss, your raid groups with who plays what and the open seats, your members with their portraits, and your guild's Group on Social. Guild tools have a Performance tab: your raid nights from the combat logs members upload, everyone's ranking per boss, attendance against sign-ups, by raid group. Linked Discord servers get a summary after each raid night, and the bot has a new /performance command.
- Social replaces the forum: friends, guild Groups and sharing : The forum is now Social. Post a few words without a title, add pictures, a poll or a #tag, and comment right under any post. Add friends and choose who sees each post: everyone, your friends, or your guild's Group (every guild with a guild page has one). Share a post to your feed, your friends, your Group or straight to one friend. Your player page now shows your guild, your posts, likes and friends. Old forum links still work.
- Guild pages fill in from your Discord : Link your guild's Discord server in guild tools and its guild page shows how many members it has and how many are online, its next scheduled event and a Join button, refreshed every few hours. Officers also get a reminder to claim their guild's short address, yourguild.foreverdb.net.
- Short stories by players, with votes and comments : Write a story set in WoW Forever and share it at Lore, Short stories: a proper editor with headings, bold and italic, quotes and lists, and a cover picture if you like. Readers vote for their favourites and comment. The first one is ours: The Quiet Wind, about two Skyborne who go looking for the vanished wind.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.23: names for the creatures ForeverDB only knew by number : Drops from 182 of Forever's new creatures showed as "NPC" and a number. The addon now notes a creature's name when you see it (never a player's), so their item pages name them. Seven recipes Forever gave a new spell number now show what changed instead of New.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.22: the map noise fixed at its real cause, and quests that aren't for you : The coloured noise and purple blocks on the world map were our fault: the way we packed the addon damaged 11 of the map's 16 overview pictures. They're packed byte for byte now. The leveling guide also stops sending you to holiday quests, quests for the other faction and Classic quests nobody has seen in Forever, and it learns the side of Forever's new quest givers as players meet them.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.21: the map noise on NVIDIA cards, second fix : Some players with NVIDIA graphics cards still saw coloured noise and purple blocks on the world map. Map art the game hadn't finished loading was shown anyway after 8 seconds; now it shows only once it has loaded, with the overview in its place until then.
- Guild tools: Discord roles for your guild, ranks and teams : Officers can choose which of their Discord server's roles go to every verified member, to each guild rank and to each team (guild tools, Settings, Discord roles). Members get them in Discord with /roles or a Get my guild roles button the officers post; after that the roles follow their rank, and go when they leave. The bot only ever changes those roles. It needs its Manage Roles permission: guild tools say when it's missing.
- Guild pages: who's live on Twitch and YouTube : Streams on a guild's page now show when they're live: a LIVE badge with the viewers and title, live screens first, and Live now at the top of the page. A YouTube channel or @handle can go on a stream screen and plays whatever the channel has live. When one of the guild's streamers goes live, its Discord channel gets one post (officers can turn that off in guild tools, Settings). Live status is checked every two minutes.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.20: the last of the profession guides : Fixed: the leveling guide sending you to quests your faction, class or race can't get: what players see at quest givers (no names) now tells every ForeverDB player's guide which of Forever's new quests are for whom. Recipes that are Season of Discovery leftovers, retired or above the level cap are labelled Speculation, with the reason. The Consumables page works for any level and shows each consumable's next upgrade. Herbalism, Mining and Skinning show every skill range at a glance: what to gather and the best zones for each.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.19: the website's profession guides in the game : Fixed: coloured noise and purple blocks on the zoomed-out world map, seen mostly on NVIDIA cards (ForeverDB's far-view map pictures were missing their two smallest sizes). Everything the site's profession guides have is now in the addon. Recipes: search, a skill range, New in Forever and Changed in Forever, and what Forever changed from Classic, the effect, the tools and station, the trainer's cost and where to learn each one, with the arrow to the nearest vendor or trainer. The Professions page: what every herb, ore, leather and fish is for and the guides' tips, skinning beasts by zone, fishing in any zone with players' catches, the disenchanting table, every crafted best in slot, the other faction's route, and Which professions suit me? (best for your class, and the quiz). On the map, Fishing alone now shows fishing pools, and the spots players fished in Forever.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.18: Fishing on the Professions page : A player on CurseForge couldn't find Fishing on the addon's Professions page: it wasn't there. Now it is. For your skill it lists the zones to fish in from ForeverDB's fishing guide, about how many casts land a fish there, what the water gives and its pools, with Show on map and an arrow to a pool spot. It also covers the zone you're in, and where to train each rank (Expert Fishing is a book from Old Man Heming in Booty Bay). Zone skill, catches and pools are Classic data until players record them in Forever. The site's fishing guide has the full maps: foreverdb.net/profession/fishing.
- Guild tools: tasks : Guild tools have a Tasks tab for the jobs that keep a guild going, like restocking the guild bank or farming resistance gear. Officers give a task to anyone, a team or one member, with a due time. Members take the open ones and mark theirs done. Tasks can repeat every day, week, two weeks or four weeks, remind the guild's Discord channel before they're due, and pay the guild's points (DKP) when they're done; with points, an officer checks the task off first.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.17: the game's drawn city maps, if you want them : ForeverDB's world map can lay Blizzard's own drawn maps over the six capitals: Stormwind, Orgrimmar, Ironforge, Thunder Bluff, Darnassus and Undercity. Ironforge and Undercity then show the city instead of the hills above it. It starts off, so the map looks as before; turn it on under the map's Layers button (Drawn city maps) or in ForeverDB's settings, Map.
- Guild tools: news, a forum, a wiki, picture albums, and points with awards : Two new tabs in guild tools. Community has guild news (a public post also shows on your guild's own site, in Guild updates and in a new News block for your pages), a members-only forum with categories, pinned and locked threads and polls, a wiki that keeps every earlier version, and picture albums every member can add to. Points is DKP-style: award an event's attendance in one click, charge items from the loot log, apply decay and undo any change; make your own awards with game icons and see leaderboards for points, attendance, loot and awards. The Guild Master chooses which ranks moderate the forum and which give points.
- Guild tools: teams, wishlists and a roster audit : Guilds can now split into teams: raid teams, PvP premades or a weekly dungeon group, with each member's role and whether they're core, on trial or on the bench. Events can belong to a team, the calendar can show one team, and the event page lists only that team's members who haven't signed up. The new Wishlist tab lets every member rank the items they want, picked from a raid's loot by boss; the loot council sees who wants each item beside their attendance and recent loot, and an item ticks itself off when the loot log shows they won it. Officers also get an Audit view on the Roster tab: every sharing member's spec, item level, empty slots, enchants, snapshot age, attendance and teams in one table, with a CSV download.
- Guild recruiting: your own application form, officer votes and notes, a chat with applicants, and a guild finder : Officers can now write their guild's own application questions (short or long answers, choices, yes or no, each optional or required). On each application they vote, keep notes only officers see, chat with the applicant before inviting them, and accept, decline or take them on as a trial. Applicants see the officers' messages under Your recruiting and can write back. Recruitment posts show how quickly a guild replies and when its officers last checked. And /guilds has a guild finder: search by name, region, faction, play style and the class a guild wants.
- Guild pages: a page editor, extra pages and your own pictures : Guild Masters and officers can now build their guild's page from blocks in the new Page editor tab of guild tools: headings, text with bold and lists, quotes, rules, questions and answers, pictures and galleries, YouTube videos, a Twitch player, streamers, buttons, links, contacts and the sections ForeverDB fills in itself (members, progress, raid schedule, recruiting, records). Each block can be full width, half or a third, and you drag or move them into place with a live preview. A guild can add up to six more pages, such as Rules or Raid info, each with its own tab and address. Pictures you upload show once they've been checked, usually within a quarter of an hour.
- ForeverDB Uploader 2.13.0 and the Bot Hunt leaderboard : The Uploader can now send the summary from Bot Hunt, a new addon that turns catching bots into a game: you report likely bots, earn points and ranks, and see how many get removed on your realm. Suspects are only ever scrambled codes, never names, and the leaderboard only shows hunters who choose to be on it. The addon itself is coming soon on CurseForge and Wago.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.16: no more noise on the world map : Some players saw noise and solid purple or black squares over the world map until they zoomed in. ForeverDB's map showed each piece of map art before the game had loaded it; now each piece waits until it's ready, and the softer overview shows underneath meanwhile. The same goes for Unexplored areas on a zone's map.
- ForeverDB addon 0.57.15: no more quests the giver won't give you : The leveling guide kept sending some players to pick up a quest the quest giver doesn't offer their class, such as "Welcome to Shen'dar Village", which a Rogue never gets from Constable Aonda. Now, when you talk to a quest giver, any quest they don't offer you drops out of the guide and the map for that character.
- Guild tools in Discord: reserves, loot, attendance, roster, announcements and invites : The ForeverDB bot now does the rest of guild tools from Discord, on the same data as the site: /reserve add, remove and list for soft reserves, /loot for the loot log, /attendance, and for officers /roster, /announce (pinned in guild tools and posted in the guild's channel) and /invite. Announcements made on the site are posted in the guild's linked channel by the bot too. The calendar, sign-ups, /event and /raid already worked both ways.
- Guild page themes: make your guild's site your own : Guild Masters and officers can now choose their guild's look in the Guild page tab: eight themes (Classic, Ironforge, Stormwind, Orgrimmar, Darnassus, Undercity, Thunder Bluff and Northrend), their own accent colour, the background art, classic serif headings, square or rounded corners, a tall or compact banner and the order of the sections, with a live preview. The guild's page, its own address and its guild tools all wear it. /guilds now has screenshots of it all.
- Guild Master and officer tools, members-only guild pages and invite links : Guild tools have a new Officers tab: who's been offline for two weeks or more, who joined or left this week, who isn't on ForeverDB yet, waiting applications and the next week's raids that are short of tanks or healers. Officers can pin an announcement for every member (and post it to Discord), keep private notes on members, and see a log of every change and who made it. The Guild Master chooses what each rank can do. A guild's page can now be members-only, and an invite link lets new members join the calendar and sign-ups without the addon. The full roster is now for the Guild Master and officers only.
- Guild pages in the menu : Guild pages now has its own place in the menu, where Forum was (the forum is still under News). It shows what a guild gets on ForeverDB, free: its own address, a page that recruits, and a calendar with sign-ups, reminders, roster, loot log and attendance for members. There's an example, the three steps to set it up and the guilds that already have their page.
- Guild pages are now the guild's own site: tabs for the calendar and guild tools : A guild's page and its tools now share one row of tabs: Overview, Calendar, Roster, Loot log, Attendance and You, plus Applications, Guild page and Settings for officers. ForeverDB's own menu folds into a panel on the left, so the page is all about the guild. On a guild's short address (yourguild.foreverdb.net) members log in and use the calendar without leaving it.
- Your guild's own address: yourguild.foreverdb.net : Guild Masters and officers can now claim a short address for their guild's page, such as ashen-vanguard.foreverdb.net. Pick it in guild tools, on the Guild page tab: 3 to 30 letters, numbers and hyphens, first come, first served, one per guild. The address opens the guild's page, and every other link on it takes visitors to foreverdb.net.
- Live logs: a stream overlay, a Discord board and a watch page with the fight map : Log your dungeons and raids live with nothing to install. Start Live logging on Replay in Chrome or Edge, and each pull shows up on a see-through overlay for OBS or Streamlabs, as one message in your Discord raid channel that updates after every pull, and on a private watch page behind an access code. The watch page and the overlay also show the fight while it's going on: the meters so far and, on the watch page, the last 15 seconds on the map.
- This week in Forever: a new roundup every Friday : The week's most important news and its most-watched clips, on one page. Press Play them all to watch the clips back to back. They're the creators' own videos, playing in YouTube's player, so the creators keep the views. A new issue comes out every Friday evening, and earlier weeks stay on the page.
- Trainers page: Forever's own class trainers are in : We checked Blizzard's November 5 hotfixes against the site. The Trainers page only listed Classic's trainers, so Forever's own were missing, including Zephras Isle's and the Forsaken's Paladin trainers. They're in now, with where players saw them, and the addon's nearest trainer tip gets them with its next data update. The races page also has Blizzard's new rule for Plainsrunning in battlegrounds.
- ForeverDB 0.57.0: a better check for gold spam and bots : The addon's bot check now keeps looking at players who stay on screen, spots gold adverts in seven more languages, and counts a long message sent word for word by three or more players, whatever it says. It also reads emotes, the subject of letters from strangers and the names in their guild and chat channel invites. Every install can now add its day's numbers to the gold-seller tracker, not only players with the Uploader. Names, messages and websites stay out of that. Update on CurseForge or Wago, or from the addon page.
- ForeverDB 0.56.2: a new waypoint arrow and tooltips that say what's true : The addon's waypoint arrow is new: a solid 3D arrow with one head and a square tail, green when you're heading for the spot, yellow when it's to the side and red when it's behind you. In the Leveling window the level ring is smooth, the compass arrow turns towards your step, and you can drag the window from anywhere on it. Vendor tooltips now count everything a vendor sells, rewards from Forever quests no longer say "(Classic)", the loot browser shows the same chances as the dungeon pages, and all the herb and ore spots players found are in. Update on CurseForge or Wago, or from the addon page.
- We checked all our data against the game and fixed what was wrong : We went through every part of the site's data and checked it against the WoW Forever client and Blizzard's posts: items, spells and talents, quests and NPCs, dungeons and best in slot, professions, the world map, change tracking, the simulator, the API and the written guides. We found 112 mistakes and fixed them, from Hunter spells showing a cast time of -1000 sec to Season of Discovery gear in the best in slot lists and class guides that still recommended removed abilities. Every one is on the corrections log with what was wrong, why and what we changed. The addon's fixes are in version 0.56.2.
- Blizzard's first launch hotfixes are on the site : The hotfixes Blizzard pushed after launch are now in our data, and they raise tanks' threat: Defensive Stance now increases all threat by 80% (it was 30%), Defiance adds 7, 13 and 20% in Defensive Stance with a shield (it was 5, 10 and 15%), and Bear Form's built-in threat bonus went from 50% to 115%. They also change 51 items and add the temporary portals near the boat and zeppelin docks. A problem on our side kept them off the site on 5 November; the corrections log explains why and what we changed so it doesn't happen again.
- API and Discord bot: patch notes, buffs and nerfs, and Merchant's Favor : The ForeverDB API has four new endpoints: every client build we've compared (/api/v1/builds), everything one build changed in the game files (/api/v1/builds/latest, filtered by class, type or change), every class buff and nerf (/api/v1/buffs-nerfs), and Merchant's Favor's crates and vendors (/api/v1/merchants-favor). Spells now come with their school, cast time, range, cooldown, cost and level: the API listed them but left them empty. In Discord, the bot's answers name the live game build instead of calling it a beta build, and /help lists /botchannel.
- ForeverDB 0.56.1: the Leveling window becomes a leveling guide : The addon's Leveling window now reads like a leveling guide: your zone and how much of your plan is left there, what to do now with a segmented bar for every objective, a compass and the quest creatures around you, the quests you can do in the same place, and tips between quests: spells to learn at your nearest trainer, supplies and bag space, herbs and ore on your way that give a skill point, the beasts to skin and what you can craft from your bags. It follows what you do instead of a fixed order, and the Your way buttons choose whether it includes gathering, crafting, dungeon quests and grinding. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- ForeverDB 0.56.0: the Leveling window becomes a leveling guide and your quest list : The addon's Leveling window shows the step you're on in large letters with a progress bar for each objective, where it is and when you're there, quests you can finish on your way to it, the next steps, and every quest you have in the order to do them, with who takes the finished ones. It can replace Blizzard's quest tracker if you tick the box at its foot. The quest plan now hands in and picks up what's right where you stand before moving on, and the Settings page shows each feature's main switch first. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- ForeverDB 0.55.2: a Feedback page, and every class's builds for build 70790 : Report a bug, an idea or wrong data from inside the game: the new Feedback page in the ForeverDB window saves it and the ForeverDB Uploader (2.12.0) sends it to the team, with the zone, class and level but never your character's name. The page also has the website's contact form ready to copy. The talent builds and rotation cards for all nine classes now follow build 70790's talent changes, which reshuffled Rogue, Shaman and Warrior most. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago; the Uploader updates itself.
- Tools and calculators: every tool on one page : Every tool on ForeverDB now has one page: the talent calculator, gear planner, DPS simulator, best in slot, leveling route, world map, Legacy and downrank calculators, the raid planner, the backstory writer and the rest, grouped by what you want to do, each with one line saying what it answers, and a box to find one. Searching for "tools", "calculator", "simulator" or "planner" finds it too, and every entry in the menu's lists now has its icon.
- The items list, rebuilt: what's new, where it drops and what you can get first : The items page opens on the items you can actually get, with where each one comes from: what players' ForeverDB addon saw in Forever first, then Classic sources, then new items nobody has found yet, with raid loot further down. The numbers at the top (new in Forever, changed from Classic, seen by players, new item sets) are filters, there's a dungeon-loot picker and a bar for the items Blizzard is hiding, and the filters are labelled: name (a stat or an item ID works too), required level, item level, class, In Forever, rarity, slot and stat, with a category tree and counts beside the list. We also fixed 2,440 items, such as level 39 dungeon loot, that were wrongly marked Speculation as if they were above the level cap.
- The world map: the game's own icons, smaller, and sized to the zoom : The map's pins are now the game's own icons instead of coloured dots: the Classic minimap's tracking icons for flight masters, innkeepers, repair, stable masters, bankers, auction houses and mailboxes, and the minimap's map icons for dungeons, raids, cities, towns, graveyards, boats, rares and quests, with the Find Herbs and Find Minerals icons for herbs and ore. They're smaller, stay small when you're zoomed out and grow as you zoom in, and herbs, ore, quest givers, repair and graveyards wait until you're closer in, so the map isn't covered.
- ForeverDB 0.55.1: New in this update, in the game : A new page in the ForeverDB window lists everything the latest WoW Forever update added, your class first, each tagged New with the update's date, plus what was renamed, removed and changed, the same as foreverdb.net/new. Those spells and items say so on their tooltips too. It also brings build 70790's data: loot, items, search names and the Helper's gear and dungeons. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- New in this update: everything the latest game update added : A new page under Changes lists every class ability, talent, spell and item the latest WoW Forever update added, what it renamed and removed, and how much changed, each linking to its page. Wherever those things live on ForeverDB (class abilities, the talent calculator, spells and items) they now carry a New badge with the update's date, in its own colour so it isn't mixed up with New in Forever. For build 70790: Shank, three new talents and new Rogue spells, and Totemic Projection renamed Totemic Call.
- A backstory writer for roleplayers : Pick your character's race and class, a home, your ruleset, a tone and a length, say what you're aiming for (your idea for the character, personality, what drives them, a secret or flaw, how you'll play them), and get a backstory that fits WoW Forever's Year 1, with three roleplay hooks other players can pick up. No AI: ForeverDB's own generator puts it together from nearly 600 story parts we wrote for every race, class and tone, weaves in your words, and names a quest giver from your homeland out of our lore library of 5,544 entries. Write another version mixes it differently. Free, no limit, nothing you type is kept. English only for now.
- PvP guides: battlegrounds, Honor and ranks, world PvP, and Roleplay-PvP : Four new guides. The PvP beginner's guide has every battleground and its levels, Honor and Rank Points, what each of the 14 ranks unlocks, and the blue and epic gear with its Emboldened Seals. Battleground strategies covers roles, openings and calls for Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, the new Darkspear Islands and Alterac Valley. World PvP covers the PvP rulesets, staying alive and fighting back. The RP-PvP guide covers fighting in character, town raids and the customs RP-PvP players keep.
October 2026
- ForeverDB 0.50.0: the rotation assistant rebuilt : The rotation assistant now follows what Forever lets addons see. Each spell is typed from the client's data: buffs and totems are kept up instead of spammed, with one seal, curse, aspect or stance at a time. Finishers wait for your spec's combo points, interrupts for your target to cast, taunts for a mob to leave you in a group. It skips spells your target can't take, like Exorcism on a beast or Frost on a water elemental. Tested against 142 game situations. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- ForeverDB 0.49.0: the Leveling window : A small panel to keep on screen while you level, in the place of Questie's tracker: your level and experience to go, your own pace (XP an hour and when the next level comes), how long your level takes ForeverDB players, the best zone for you now with a Take me there button, and the next steps of your quest plan with each quest's objectives and progress. Click a step for the arrow. Drag it, fold it or close it; it never writes in chat. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- ForeverDB 0.48.0: the leveling route in the game : Where to go next, on the ForeverDB window's Travel page, now counts where ForeverDB players at your level and faction really got the most XP an hour, and says how long your level takes them and what the fastest quarter does. The quest planner uses players' typical quest times too. The numbers fill in from launch day as players level with the addon, the same as foreverdb.net/leveling-route. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- The leveling route: where to go at each level, from how players really level : foreverdb.net/leveling-route shows, for Alliance and Horde, the zones to level in at each level and the quests worth doing. ForeverDB 0.47.0 times each of your levels, the zones you spend it in and the order you hand your quests in (only while you play, under a random code per character: never a name, realm or where you are), so from launch the page shows the zones that really give the most XP an hour, how long each level takes and what the fastest players do. Until then it shows the zones whose level range suits each level. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- Roleplaying and Roleplay-PvP: everything Blizzard has said so far : The rulesets page and the RP guide now cover Roleplay-PvP (coming at launch on 4 November, and planned for name reservation from 27 October), the game's own description of both RP rulesets, faction balance, what's shared across rulesets and the language setting. Blizzard hasn't published naming or behaviour rules for the RP rulesets yet; we'll add them the day it does.
- Launch guide: name reservation times, the 3-name limit and the first raids : The launch pages are up to date with Blizzard's latest posts: Early Name Reservation opens on 27 October (18:00 CET, 1:00 p.m. PDT, 07:00 on 28 October in Korea and Taiwan) and runs to 3 November, for up to three characters across all rulesets. Also: the beta closed on 23 October, the RP-PvP ruleset, raids opening on 9 December, and installing the game before launch. In English and Spanish.
- Spanish pages: Blizzard is Blizzard again : The Spanish pages often called Blizzard the company "Ventisca", the Spanish name of the Mage spell Blizzard, because our translation word list used the spell's name. 1,392 mentions now say Blizzard; where a text means the Mage spell, it still says Ventisca. Details on the corrections log.
- ForeverDB 0.46.0: ready for two-part names, and your finds without the Uploader : WoW Forever characters have a first name and a second name, and two players can share a first name. The addon now reads both: armory pages show and link the full name, and raid plans, ready checks, recipe sharing, the Helper's group sync and guild loot recognise players by their full name. Also new: if you don't run the ForeverDB Uploader, what vendors sell, what trainers teach, gathering spots, rares, flight times, quest rewards and the items you loot now reach foreverdb.net through other ForeverDB players, like the anonymous game facts. Never names or chat. Update the addon on CurseForge or Wago.
- Population: the most played classes and races : New page: which classes and races WoW Forever players pick, Alliance against Horde, class and race pairs and levels, for every region and realm. It counts the players ForeverDB addons see in game (ForeverDB 0.45.0 and later): each player once, under a scrambled code, never by name. Counting starts when the servers open on 4 November; until then it shows the beta's characters that players uploaded. Turn it off in the addon under Settings > Recording.
- Share articles in one click : Every ForeverDB article now has a small share bar at the top and the bottom: Reddit, Facebook, X, Bluesky, WhatsApp, email and copy link, plus your phone's own share menu. They're plain links, with no tracking scripts from those sites.
- Discord bot: patch notes for every new build : The ForeverDB Discord bot now posts each new game build's patch notes to your news channel: what changed for each class, with links to the abilities and talents, ForeverDB's article about the build when there is one, and the full changelog. Channels that already get new finds in the game files get them too, and /news subscribe has a new builds option. Type /patchnotes to post the newest build's changes in any channel, or pick an older build. Thanks to the player who asked for it.
- The WoW Forever live client: build 70532 datamined : ForeverDB now reads the WoW Forever release client (build 70532) instead of the beta. Every spell, talent, class ability and item the live client changed since the last beta build (70450) now carries a "Changed in the live client" note on its page with the beta value next to the new one, and nothing was taken off the site: Arcane Wrath, which is a Mage talent now instead of a trainer ability, stays listed on the Mage page, marked. The biggest changes: Champion of the Light (Retribution) is back to up to 20% of your Intellect per rank, Mage Frostbite and Permafrost swap places, Arcane Wrath becomes a talent, Frost Blast's spell power coefficient drops from 0.343 to 0.271, Winter's Chill is reworked, Amplify Curse gets its 20% Curse of Exhaustion back, and every pushback talent now reads "chance to not lose casting time". 44 items the release client still keeps hidden show their beta details, labelled, until a player finds them in game. The servers open again in about two weeks, and the hotfixes Blizzard pushes then will be picked up automatically.
- Rogue poisons on the Rogue page, and vendors' reputation factions : New: a Poisons tab on the Rogue page with every poison in the Forever client, the level you learn it, its reagents and skill colours, and the price at Forever's rogue trainers (what players' addons saw, before reputation discounts). It also lists the rogue trainers and poison suppliers, and how to learn Poisons at level 20 (Klaven's Tower for the Alliance, Hinott's Assistance for the Horde). Lethargy Root is still on Classic's supplier lists, but nothing in the Forever client uses it. Vendors in our developer API now say which faction's reputation discounts their prices. And four holiday recipes that only came from Lunar Festival quests (Festival Dress, Festival Suit, Firework and Cluster Launcher) now name that quest, labelled: the quests aren't in the Forever client yet.
- Recipe sources: every drop, trainers by title, retired items left out : Recipes now count every mob, chest and world drop that teaches them, not just the first four (the API lists them all). Next to the trainers players saw teach a recipe, the trainers with the same title as one players saw teach it are listed, marked inferred: Forever's trainers with one title teach one list (every Journeyman Blacksmith up to skill 75, every Expert up to 150). Items the game client itself names as retired ("OLD", "Deprecated") are no longer given as a recipe's source. Guardian Cloak was listed as learnable at skill 125 from a retired pattern, and is now learned at 160 from Pattern: Guardian Cloak. Same-name copies of a recipe are linked, and Season of Discovery leftovers are marked. Items that are still hidden in the game now have a basic page in our developer API.
- Profession trainers: Forever's own prices and trainers : Recipe prices at profession trainers now come from what players' ForeverDB addons saw at Forever's trainers, at full price (each player's reputation and Bartering discount taken off). Before, many showed a discounted price or Classic's. Forever's new trainer recipes, such as the blue Gemmed Copper Boots, Officer's Belt and Gilded Slippers, now list every trainer players saw teach them, with where they stand, and Forever's own trainers on Zephras Isle are on the trainer lists. Limited-supply recipes that were sold out when a player saw the vendor are listed again, labelled Classic data. And the loot from Blizzard's last-day beta celebration (copies of Molten Core gear dropping from starter mobs) is kept out of drop rates and sources, since it won't be in the game at launch.
- Addon 0.44.0: the New player guide and players' fastest routes : The ForeverDB addon now has a New player guide for your first 10 levels. It opens on your own starting area and shows only the next two or three things to do, then your route with quests ticked as you finish them, every place you'll look for (your class trainer, food, repairs, the inn, profession trainers) with an Arrow and a Map pin, your class quests and the best professions for your class. ForeverDB players on the same realm also share, inside the game, the order they hand quests in and how long each step took, so the guide can show the fastest route players have found (once 3 or more have shared). Only quest numbers and times are shared, never names or where you are. Also fixed: the dungeon helper's doubled button, tooltip and gear finder upgrade percentages that didn't match, and a boss shown as an NPC number.
- The ForeverDB Uploader for Linux : Playing WoW Forever on Linux with Lutris, Steam (Proton), Bottles, Heroic or Wine? The ForeverDB Uploader now runs on Linux too. One line in a terminal installs it for your user (no sudo). It finds the game in your Wine prefix, installs and updates the ForeverDB addons and their data, and uploads what the addon records after you play, in the background if you like. The addon pages also explain the other ways to install on Linux: by hand, or with the Wago app, WowUp or the CurseForge app.
- Beginner guides for every starting area, race and class (levels 1 to 10) : New guides for your first 10 levels: one for each starting area (Northshire Valley, Coldridge Valley, Shadowglen, Deathknell, the Valley of Trials, Camp Narache and Zephras Isle), one for each of the ten races, and one for every race and class, 56 in all. Each starts with what you need right now: where you appear, your first quest giver and your class trainer. Then where everything is (food, repairs, the inn, the mailbox, profession trainers, the spirit healer), with a map pin and the walk there, and the quests in a good order. Spots come from what players recorded in WoW Forever; Classic's data fills the gaps and is marked. Pick your race and class on the guides page, and see which professions suit your class.
- Addon 0.43.0: Merchant's Favor, library books, recipe sharing, enchants and sets, leylines : The ForeverDB addon's new pages: everything sold for Merchant's Favor at the Crossroads and in Redridge (costs, your balance, the recipes you don't know yet, how to earn Favor), a library books tracker, who knows a recipe among your characters and your guild (and other ForeverDB players who choose to answer), the best enchant for every slot and who can make it, item set buttons for your class, a search over all settings, and leylines and convergences: Skyborne players who use Read Leyline or Skysight put them on ForeverDB's maps.
- Leylines and convergences on the maps : A new layer on the world map and the 3D explorer shows leylines and elemental convergences, found by Skyborne players with the ForeverDB addon: when Read Leyline or Skysight gives its 15-minute buff, the spot is recorded. One player's find shows as not confirmed until a second player finds it too.
- The developer API in German and French : Add lang=de or lang=fr (next to lang=es and lang=es-MX) to any API request for the game's own German or French names: items, spells, recipes, item sets, classes, factions and zones, with the English kept alongside.
- Addon 0.42.0 in Spanish : The ForeverDB addon and the ForeverDB Helper now speak Spanish: every window, setting, tooltip line, message and panel, and ForeverDB's item, spell, zone, dungeon, profession and other names in the game's own Spanish (esES, or esMX in a Latin American game). Settings > General has Language / Idioma: Automatic (your game's language, or Windows' with the Uploader 2.9.0), English or Español. In a Spanish game the profession helper and Take me there now recognise your professions and flight paths too.
- Uploader 2.9.0 : The Uploader tells the addon your Windows language, so the addon's Automatic language setting can pick Spanish even when the game itself is in English.
- The developer API in Spanish : Add lang=es (Spain) or lang=es-MX (Latin America) to any API request for the game's own Spanish names: items, spells and recipes, item sets and their bonuses, classes, factions, zones, and spell and item-effect text. The English name stays next to it, and searches find Spanish names too. A guild's crafting-order bot asked for it.
- Addon 0.41.0: Data collection only : For players who only want to help with data: one switch at the top of the ForeverDB addon's Settings (also in Options > AddOns, and offered in the first-run setup) turns off everything you see or that acts in the game (tooltips, map pins, the quest arrow, panels, pop-ups, chat lines, the minimap button, auto repair and selling) and keeps recording drops, quests, vendors, disenchants and the rest for the Uploader. Switch it off and your settings come back exactly as they were. A ForeverRecipes developer asked for it.
- Disenchanting, vendor stacks, recipe and quest data in the API : Green armor no longer shows the weapon disenchant table (armor gives mostly dust, weapons mostly essence), and items the game won't let you disenchant (Lesser Magic Wand and others) show none. The developer API now gives vendor stack sizes and the price per item (Spring Water: 25 copper for 5), Merchant's Favor costs on recipe vendors, each recipe's category, every trainer, smelting's sources, and who starts and ends each quest, with where they stand.
- Drop chances with two decimals : Drop chances below 1% now show two decimals everywhere (item pages, dungeon and rare loot, best in slot, fishing, the Discord bot and Ask), so a rare recipe reads 0.02% instead of 0.0%. A player asked for it. The addon shows them too from version 0.40.0.
- Vendor prices without discounts : Players see vendor prices after their own reputation discount and the Bartering Legacy perk, so ForeverDB showed whichever price the last player paid. Item pages and vendors now show the vendor's full price.
- Disenchant odds and Merchant's Favor costs : Every uncommon, rare and epic weapon and armor page now says what disenchanting it gives, with the chance and how many, and the Enchanting guide has the full table: Classic's tables for now, replaced by what players measure in WoW Forever as it comes in (addon 0.40.0 with Uploader 2.8.0 records it). Vendors that charge Merchant's Favor or items show those costs under Sold by. In the API too: /api/v1/disenchant.
- API: where every recipe is learned : The developer API's profession answers now say where each recipe is learned: the trainers and vendors for each faction with where they stand, the vendor's price and whether stock is limited, the quests and drops that give it, and whether players saw each one in WoW Forever or it's Classic data.
- Gathering leveling guides: Herbalism, Mining, Skinning and Fishing : Each gathering profession now has a 1 to 300 guide: what to gather at every skill and the best zones for it, the ranks and the levels they need, what every herb, ore, leather and fish is used for, what it sells for on your side's auction house, Forever's own recipes for the profession, and tips. Every leveling guide is now also on each profession's page.
- ForeverDB API: professions, gathering, battlegrounds and changes seen in game : The developer API now has every profession with its recipes and trainers, the gathering data for Herbalism, Mining, Skinning and Fishing, every battleground, and the changes players saw in game stamped Verified or Not confirmed. The documentation lists them all.
- Changes seen in game : Every difference players' ForeverDB addons saw in WoW Forever compared with the game files (vendor and sell prices, quest XP and money, creature levels, item stats) is now on one page, each stamped Verified or Not confirmed, newest first.
- Battleground pages and addon 0.39.0: the battleground helper : Every battleground in WoW Forever has its own page: Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin, Alterac Valley and the new Darkspear Islands (with Blizzard's rules: first to 2000 points), plus Battle for Gilneas, Battle for Blackrock and Mak'gora Arena from the game client. Each shows how to win, its objectives on the map, and win rates by faction and match length from ForeverDB players. In game, the ForeverDB addon 0.39.0 shows a battleground panel with the score, which team is on pace to win, objective countdowns and flag carriers by class.
- PvP tracker: leaderboards and live world PvP : A new PvP page: leaderboards for PvP rank, honorable kills, this week's honor and kills, and battleground wins by realm, faction and class, plus a PvP tab on public armory characters. World PvP shows open-world fights and world battles on your realm as they happen, on the page and on the map, and where the fighting was over the last 30 days. Never a player's name: only how many, where and when.
- Addon 0.38.0: World PvP and battle alerts : The ForeverDB addon shares open-world fights between ForeverDB players (counts and a map spot, never names) and shows them on a World PvP page and your map, with a pop-up when a world battle breaks out near you. Your PvP rank, honor and battleground record now go with your character to ForeverDB. The ForeverDB Discord bot can post world battles to a channel too: /live subscribe with battles set to yes.
- ForeverDB API for developers : Build your own site, bot or tool on ForeverDB's WoW Forever data: items, spells, quests, vendors, dungeons, classes, item sets, our articles and Blizzard's posts, as JSON with an API key. Read the documentation and ask for access on the API page.
- Community forum : Talk WoW Forever with other players: post questions, stories, screenshots and polls on boards for classes, dungeons and raids, guilds and groups, and help. Link an item, spell or quest and it shows with its tooltip, and post as one of your characters with your guild. It's in the menu as Forum.
- Addon 0.37.0: Pet & supplies and best in slot in Search : The ForeverDB addon now keeps an eye on what runs out while you quest: your Hunter pet's happiness and the food in your bags it will eat (with a Feed Pet button), ammo, class reagents, bag space and gear about to break, each with the nearest vendor or repairer on your map. Search "bis" in the addon for your best gear in every slot for your class and spec. Also new: a Hunter pets page to find beasts to tame, and search across the addon's pages, settings, items and NPCs.
- Uploader 2.6.0 updates itself : From version 2.6.0 the ForeverDB Uploader installs its own updates: click Update and restart when a new version is out, and it downloads it, checks it and reopens. Download 2.6.0 once by hand; after that, updates are one click.
- Coach: the three things to change in a pull : Open a pull on the Replay page or in a shared report and pick the new Coach tab. It compares what a player did with ForeverDB's DPS simulator for the same class, spec, level, gear and fight length, and ranks the three changes worth the most DPS: casting gaps, damage over time and buffs that fell off, cooldowns left unused, abilities cast too rarely, running out of mana, missing consumables and deaths, each with a number and links to the exact moments in the replay. It is rules only, no AI, and the DPS numbers are estimates from the simulator. A log opened in your browser gives the full coach (your own casts and buffs stay in your browser); an uploaded report has damage, healing and deaths only. Moments can be linked: a report address with ?pull=1&t=42 opens that pull at 42 seconds.
- Talent calculator: no more refused clicks at the level cap : When your points run out below level 60, clicking a talent that could take a point now adds it and plans one level further, instead of refusing the click. The level and the points line follow, and crossing the beta cap says so by the talent. Tier and prerequisite rules still explain themselves.
- Tier lists: every list at a glance : Under each tier list, one table shows every spec's tier on all five lists (levelling, dungeon DPS, tanks, healers and PvP), so you can compare a spec without switching lists.
- Fewer clicks that do nothing : Cards for gear in the class guides, consumables, mounts, professions and boss abilities now open wherever you click them; tabs and filters that are already showing, and table headers that don't sort, no longer look clickable; server and maintenance posts show the server status right on the post; Items has quick picks and no longer opens on level 80 raid recipes; and on iPhone and iPad an item or spell link opens on the first tap.
- Road to 60 on armory pages : Characters you send with the ForeverDB addon now have a Journey tab: a timeline of every 5 levels with the day each was reached and how long it took since the level before, the first time ForeverDB saw the character, when each profession was learned and crossed 75, 150, 225 and 300, the first epic item, Legacy challenges and reputations. It is built only from what your uploads already sent. Copy its link to share it. The dated milestones show to others only when your milestone settings allow it; your own page always shows them. Open it from your characters on your profile.
- Auction prices over time on item pages : Item pages with auction house prices now draw the price over time: the median and the lowest buyout each day, for each realm and faction, from players' auction scans with the ForeverDB addon. A day nobody scanned shows as a gap, and an item seen on only one day says so.
- Our addon is called ForeverDB : Another addon called "Forever Companion" has come out, so the site now calls ours the ForeverDB addon everywhere, and the Companion is the part of it that helps while you play. Both pages also say how big it is, what stays packed until you use it and how to switch off what you don't use, and the beta page answers whether addon settings carry over to launch (Blizzard hasn't said; back up your WTF folder).
- Battlegrounds on the replay page : A combat log written in a battleground or arena now gives one pull for the whole match, named after the map, from the moment you enter to the moment you leave. Watch it back from above with your side's players by name and the other team only as Enemy 1, Enemy 2 and so on, with their faction, race and class: never their names. The meters count damage done to enemy players, healing, killing blows and damage taken, and a list shows which enemies you met. Fights against enemy players in the open world and duels get their own kinds too. All of these stay out of the PvE rankings, boss logs and dungeon statistics. Until the Companion's next update, which turns logging on in battlegrounds and arenas by itself, type /combatlog yourself before the match.
- Sign up for dungeon and raid groups : Group finder posts looking for players can now take sign-ups. The leader sets places per role (1 tank, 1 healer and 3 DPS for a dungeon, or a 10, 20 or 40-player raid) and an optional start time. Press Sign up as Tank, Healer or DPS and pick your character. When a role is full you go on the waitlist and move up when a place frees. The leader sees who signed up and accepts or declines each player; everyone else sees only the counts and classes. The same buttons are on group finder posts in Discord.
- Raid night in Discord: /raid : Officers can post the raid's comp as a picture with its buff gaps (/raid comp), the boss assignments as a Method Raid Tools note (/raid assign) and a roll-call with Ready, Not ready and Late buttons (/raid ready). Everyone can check their own gear (/raid gear), see their group and jobs (/raid me) and copy the raid code for the Companion (/raid code). The Companion's raid tools that read the code come in its next update.
- Raid calendar in Discord, synced with the site : Officers can create, edit and cancel raids from Discord with /event create, and members see the next two weeks with /calendar. Events can also show in your server's Events tab and in a calendar message the bot keeps up to date. Changes on the site reach Discord at once; changes made in Discord reach the site within a few minutes.
- Contributor XP and levels : Sharing game data now earns XP for what it adds, from a new quest to a revealed hidden item, plus corrections, tips and answers. Levels go from 1 to 60, with a new title every 10 levels and a Contributor badge. Upload XP is capped at 600 a day. If you share without an account, your XP waits until you make one.
- Discord cards look like the game's tooltips : /item and /spell in Discord now show the tooltip as a picture in the game's style, with real sources under it. The /discord page shows real replies, and you can try any name there.
- Screenshots in reports : You can attach up to 3 screenshots when you report a problem. They're saved again without hidden data such as location, only the ForeverDB team sees them, and they're deleted with your message.
- Hidden items tracker : Blizzard hid the stats of 12,597 WoW Forever items until someone finds them. foreverdb.net/hidden-items shows how many are revealed, the newest reveals, and how the addon and Uploader help reveal the rest.
- Server status now checks the realm too : The status page used to check only Blizzard's login server, which stays up while the realm restarts, so a restart showed as Up. It now also checks the beta realm's four game servers every minute, and the big box at the top shows whichever check is down. When many players press "I can't play right now" at the same time, the ForeverDB team gets an alert.
- The corrections log: every mistake we fix, in public : foreverdb.net/corrections lists every mistake players report on ForeverDB and every one we find ourselves, newest first: what was wrong, what we changed, who reported it, and how long the fix took, with how many are still open. A page we corrected says so, with the date. When you report a correction we can answer you under it as the ForeverDB team, and a "Wrong or missing data" message from the contact form can go on the log too if you leave its box ticked (only your report and the page, never your name or email). The first entry: Righteous Fury, thanks to a player's correction.
- The team's note shows under confirmed corrections : When we confirm or fix a correction you sent, the ForeverDB team's note (what was wrong and what we changed) now shows right under your correction, with a Confirmed or Fixed badge, instead of only when you hover over it.
- ForeverDB addon 0.27.0: the quest guide beside the map, safe routes and gathering spots : The full ForeverDB quest guide now sits in a pane beside the Map & Quest Log: the quest text, every step with an Arrow button, rewards against your gear, the chain, players' tips, and your own notes and saved spots (kept for all your characters; foreverdb.net shows a spot once two players save it, and a note only if you share it as a tip). The arrow is a 3D arrow that turns on the ground as you turn, and it no longer points in a straight line over mountains: it follows a walking route built from the WoW Forever client's own terrain, going round mobs well above your level, elites and enemy towns, drawn on the world map and the minimap. Herbs, ore, fishing pools and beasts to skin for your professions show on the maps as small item icons, with switches in the map's own filter menu, and a Routes & gathering page leads you round a gathering loop. New too: a short welcome the first time you log in, a quiet notice when a newer ForeverDB is out, and a privacy fix: the addon puts your character's name back to $N in the quest text it records. Mobs and gathering spawns are Classic data until players see them in Forever, and are labelled that way.
- Righteous Fury is a trainer ability, and the Protection tank builds use it : A player pointed out that Paladins can train Righteous Fury, and they were right: the client teaches it at level 16 (60% more threat from your Holy attacks for 30 min), but our data picked a leftover Season of Discovery copy of the spell and called it untrainable. The Paladin guides, builds and ability write-ups now tell tanks to use it, and the level 30 tank build takes Improved Righteous Fury (up to 6% less damage taken while it is on) instead of One-Handed Weapon Specialization. The same fix lists Tame Beast (level 10, from the Hunter quest) and the Druid's Frenzied Regeneration (level 36) correctly.
- Class quiz: which class should I play? : Not sure which class to pick? Answer twelve quick questions, one at a time and each skippable (your role, how you like to fight, leveling, PvP, buttons, pets, resource, look, faction, race, gold and getting into groups), and get the three classes and specs that suit you, why each fits, and the two best races for each with what their racials do in the Forever client, including the new race and class combinations and the Skyborne. Share your result with a link; the page shows how every point adds up and which parts are our judgement.
- Your BattleTag's number stays private everywhere : ForeverDB now shows only the name part of a BattleTag, never the #number: on tips, questions, presets, tier lists, combat logs and player pages, in emails, in the Discord bot and in your own account menu. Two players with the same name are told apart by their player page's link. The privacy policy also now says what the addon records as public game data (like Warcraft Logs and Raider.IO do), how to ask us to hide your character, and the personal data we never collect.
- Popular builds: what Forever players actually run : Each class's Builds tab and the talent calculator now show the talent builds players run in WoW Forever, from the talents the ForeverDB addon uploads: the top three builds per spec for levels 10-19, 20-29 and the level cap, how many players run each, and how often each talent is picked. Load one into the calculator with one click, or turn on "Show what players pick" to see pick rates on the trees. A build is listed only once two different players run it, one player can't fill the list, and no names are shown.
- Best in slot: the top three per slot, and the best enchant : Best in slot now shows the best item for each slot and the next two, with how far behind each is ("-4% vs best") and where it comes from. Filter by source: crafted, quest, dungeon, raid, world drop, vendor, PvP, or only items seen in Forever. Each slot also gets the best enchant, armor kit, scope or other enhancement in the Forever client for your spec and level, with an easier one when the best is hard to get.
- Share game data without an account : You can now send what the ForeverDB addon records without logging in: drop your file on the Send page, or let the ForeverDB Uploader (2.1.1 and later) send it when it isn't linked to an account; it asks first. Only game data goes: quests, drops, vendors, trainers and gathering spots, never your armory or your talent builds. What anonymous uploads say reaches the pages once an account or a second player confirms it. Logging in still gets you credit, your armory and syncing. Uploader 2.1.2 also sends the quest notes you chose to share as tips.
- A page about your free account before you log in : Log in now opens a short page first: what a free ForeverDB account adds, how the Battle.net login works (we get your account ID and BattleTag, never your password), what the addon and the Uploader collect, what we never collect, and how to delete your account. Tick "Skip this page next time I log in" to go straight to Battle.net.
- Hide my character, and less leaves your PC : You can now hide your own characters (one that's in public combat logs, or came only from a share code, is checked by an admin first): they show as "Hidden player" or are left out of the armory, character search, combat logs, rankings, guild rosters, loot logs and player pages. The upload box on the site now reads your ForeverDB file in your browser and sends only what the Uploader would; chat lines, private notes and spam-bot suspects never leave your PC. Character pages only list characters seen in public reports.
- Faster item search and easier browsing : The items list filters as you type without stalling, keeps its page in the link, and "Back to results" on an item takes you back to the same filters, page and scroll. Class pages have a switcher to another class on the same tab, dungeon pages list other dungeons for the same levels, profession pages switch professions, and whole rows (racials, spell ranks, guide steps) open when you click them. A tier list nobody has rated enough yet opens on forum opinion.
- Talent calculator: instant clicks and a − button : Talent points now go in at once. A maxed or locked talent shakes and the line above the trees says why; a small − takes a point back (always shown on phones), and Backspace or Delete removes one. In the gear planner, empty slots say "Pick an item", Show upgrades says how many it found, and the "Include speculative items" box works again.
- One addon download: ForeverDB with the Helper inside : The ForeverDB download now holds both folders, ForeverDB and ForeverDB Helper, so one install gets you the quest guide, arrow and recording as well as the dungeon and goals organizer. The Addons page and the home page now show them as one addon.
- ForeverDB addon 0.26.0: the full quest guide in the game : The ForeverDB addon has a new Quest guide page: foreverdb.net's quest guide in the game, for the quests up to the level cap and every quest seen in Forever. It opens on the quest you track, or pick any quest in your log or search for one. You get the quest text, every step with an Arrow button, where to hand it in, the rewards (money, experience, and the items you choose from compared with what you wear for your spec), the quest chain and, as players add them, the best tips from the quest's page. Each fact says whether it comes from the game, was seen in Forever, or is Classic data. Open it with the new Full guide button on the guide beside the quest log, or by clicking a quest on the Quests page.
- ForeverDB addon 0.25.1: quest pages filled in from what players see : The ForeverDB addon now records more about each quest as you play: who gives it and where, who takes it back, the objectives and how many, where the game's own quest map shows them, the rewards (with counts, and per class when they differ), the money and experience, and which quest it follows. Upload your file as usual and new WoW Forever quests get their giver, hand-in, objective areas and rewards on their quest pages, labelled "Seen in Forever" with how many players saw it. When players' reports differ, what most of them saw is shown. Your character's name is never saved or uploaded.
- ForeverDB addon 0.25.0: works with Blizzard's quest tracker, with a quest guide : The ForeverDB addon now works with the game's own quest tracker and quest log. Click a quest anywhere (the tracker, the quest log or a quest marker on the map) and ForeverDB's arrow points there, moving on to the next objective and the hand-in as you go. Blizzard's tracker shows how far each quest is, and opening a quest in the Map & Quest Log shows a ForeverDB guide beside it: where to go, what to kill or collect, the best reward for your spec, experience and the quest chain. New Forever quests use the game's own map spot until ForeverDB learns them. Free on CurseForge and on ForeverDB.
- Profession quiz: which two professions suit how you play : Can't decide which professions to take? Answer six quick questions (what you want, gathering or crafting, play time, PvE or PvP, your class, and whether you'd buy materials) and the best pair shows as you answer, with a runner-up. Each pick comes with reasons from the Forever client: best-in-slot gear for your class at the level cap, Forever's camp features, consumables and new recipes, and which gatherer supplies which crafter. You can share your result with a link, and the page shows how every point adds up.
- Player pages and a Following feed : Turn on your own player page on your profile: one page with your public characters (only the ones you tick), your tips and answers, your tier lists and your characters' milestones, such as every fifth level, profession tiers, Exalted and a first epic. It's off until you switch it on, shows your BattleTag's name without the number, and has no free text. Logged-in players can follow a page, or a single character its owner lets them follow, and see what's new on their private feed. Nobody sees who follows whom. You can also now delete your account yourself, at the bottom of your profile.
- ForeverDB addon on Wago too, and each version's changes : Besides CurseForge, the ForeverDB addon is now on Wago, with buttons for both in the header and on the addon pages. The addon page also lists what's new in each version, the same text as on CurseForge.
- Questions: ask anything, and an FAQ that grows from what you ask : A new Questions page for anything that isn't about one item or quest. Type your question and it first shows the answers that already exist, then gives you ForeverDB's instant answer from the game data, then lets you ask other players under a topic (classes, leveling, dungeons, professions, PvP, addons, launch). Questions players keep asking become FAQ entries with one clear answer and its sources, checked again on every new beta build, and they show on the pages they're about too.
- The ForeverDB Discord bot is live : Add the free ForeverDB bot to your Discord server: item, spell, quest, NPC, dungeon, boss, mount and talent cards, Ask ForeverDB with /ask, armory characters, and ForeverDB news, the group finder and your guild calendar in a channel. A new step-by-step guide shows how to add it and set it up.
- Stats explained: what each stat does for your class : How much crit does a Shaman get from Agility? A new page answers it for every class and level from 1 to 60: Agility per 1% crit, Intellect per 1% spell crit, attack power per Strength and Agility, health per Stamina, mana per Intellect, armor and block value, with a calculator for your own stats. The numbers come from a table only the Forever client has (Classic keeps them on the server). Ask ForeverDB answers these questions too.
- The Uploader now updates the ForeverDB Helper addon too : ForeverDB Uploader 1.9.1 keeps the ForeverDB Helper addon up to date as well as the Companion, and it now does so even if you only use the Helper. It only updates addons you already have installed, checks every download, and never goes back to an older version.
- Auction house prices : The Companion addon (0.24.0) now scans your auction house when you open it: each item's lowest and typical price on your tooltips, what your bags are worth, and a search, on its new Auction house page. Shared with ForeverDB (prices and quantities only, never who sells), everyone's scans make a new page with the most traded items, the biggest price changes and what's worth crafting to sell, an Auction house block on item pages with a price history, and real material costs in the profession leveling guides.
- Launch hub, live server status and a beta error checker : Everything about WoW Forever's launch on 4 November in one place, with a countdown in your time zone and answers to the common questions (release date, getting into the beta, names, editions, rulesets, the level 30 build, which class, race and profession). The status page checks Blizzard's login server every minute and shows Blizzard's maintenance notices; press "I can't play right now" to see if others can't either. Stuck on a loading screen? Drop your game's Connection.log on the beta errors page and it tells you what happened, without the file leaving your browser.
- Profession leveling guides and gathering maps : A leveling guide for every crafting profession: what to make at each skill and how many, a full shopping list, where to learn each recipe and when to train the next rank, worked out from WoW Forever's own recipes and skill colours (set your current skill and it starts from there). Plus herb and ore maps with the best zones for your skill, where to skin by level, where to learn every recipe on item pages, and crafted gear that's best in slot.
- The Uploader is optional : You no longer need the Windows app to share what the addons record. Pick your WoW folder once on your profile page and send with one click (Edge and Chrome), drag the folder onto the page in any browser, or copy a code from the ForeverDB Helper addon and paste it on foreverdb.net/send. The Uploader still does it all automatically if you like.
- Real Forever drop rates and clear times on dungeon pages : With the ForeverDB Helper addon and the Uploader, players' runs now feed the dungeon pages: drop rates seen in Forever (each kill counted once, however many in the group recorded it), clear times, kill times and wipes per boss, and the items players want most. Numbers only appear once there are enough runs, and they always say how many. Nothing with a name is ever sent; turn sharing off in the Helper's settings.
- One PvP weighting for guides and best in slot : The class PvP guides and the best-in-slot pages now use the same stat weights, and the guides' gear lists come straight from the best-in-slot picks. Alliance and Horde PvP rewards pair up properly, and you're no longer told to wear two items that share a limit (like two Battleground runes).
- Best in slot at any level, PvE and PvP : Pick your class and spec to see the best item for every slot at any level, with the next two picks, where each one comes from (which boss and how often, quest, recipe, vendor, PvP rank) and how easy it is to get. Switch to PvP for gear weighted for fighting players. Open the set in the gear planner or compare it with your own character.
- Forever's scrolls, and where to find them : All 38 of WoW Forever's new and changed scrolls (weapon imbues, familiars, Confuse Beast, Scroll of the Saber and more) with what they do. Nobody has recorded where they come from yet: loot or buy one with the Companion or Helper addon and it shows up here for everyone.
- New addon: ForeverDB Helper : Your dungeons, wishlist, goals, notes and runs in one window in the game. Plan a run boss by boss with abilities, tips for your role and the loot; star the items you want and it tells you when one drops, even for someone else in your group; set goals whose tasks tick themselves; keep notes your group can see; and every run is timed with your best time. Free, for any interface.
- The Windows app is now called ForeverDB Uploader : The free Windows app that keeps the Companion addon and its data up to date and uploads what the addon records (and your armory) is now called the ForeverDB Uploader. It's the same app with a new name and a new page: if you have it, there's nothing to do. It keeps its settings and its link to your account, and offers version 1.7.0 with the new name. The name ForeverDB Helper now belongs to a new in-game addon.
- Companion 0.23.0: a quest helper and a dungeon helper : The Companion addon now does what Questie and the dungeon helpers do, from ForeverDB's own data. Quests you can pick up, where to hand them in and where your objectives are show as pins on the world map and the minimap; a waypoint arrow points the way with the distance (click a pin, Shift- or Ctrl-click the map, or /fdb way 45 60); your coordinates show on the minimap and the cursor's on the world map; and a quest tracker lists your quests nearest first with their progress. Creature and item tooltips say which quest needs them. The new Dungeons page shows the dungeon you're in or the best for your level: bosses in order, the loot that's an upgrade for your spec, boss tips and your quest checklist, and a small panel inside dungeons tracks bosses killed and what could still drop for you. What players saw in Forever comes first; Classic data from CMaNGOS classic-db is always labelled. As you play, the addon notes where quest objectives happen, which fills in Forever's new quests for everyone.
- Companion 0.22.0: a proper settings page : Every setting of the Companion addon is now a tick box, a slider or a choice, with a line saying what it does, in sections on the ForeverDB window's Settings page, and the same settings are in Esc, Options, AddOns, ForeverDB Companion: change one and the other follows. Reset settings to defaults asks first and keeps your notes and recordings. Nothing needs a slash command any more: a new Raid & group page has the buff check, raid notes and your guild's soft reserves (paste a reserve code, see who reserved what), and a new Bots & spam page lists the players the bot check flagged, with Report and Ignore, and all its settings. /fdb commands still work as shortcuts that open the right page.
- Import your character from the game : Companion 0.21.0 adds a My character page (or type /fdb share): your class, level, talents, gear and professions as one short code. Paste it on the new Import from game page to see your character with item tooltips and enchants, sim its DPS, compare your gear with the best for your level, open your talents in the talent calculator, or copy a link to send to friends. Signed in, save it to your private armory with one click. No app to install, and your name is only in the code if you tick the box. The talent calculator, the simulator and the gear planner take the code too, and players without the ForeverDB Uploader app can now upload the addon's saved file on their profile instead.
September 2026
- Blizzard's videos, checked against the game files : When Blizzard posts a WoW Forever video on its own YouTube channel, ForeverDB now writes it up: every ability and talent the video names, checked against the beta client with its real numbers and level, and where the two disagree. The video plays right in the article, and Blizzard's own videos carry an Official label. First up: Class Highlights Part 1 (Warrior, Shaman, Rogue).
- Gold sellers and bots tracker : A new page names the gold-selling websites and Discord servers advertised in WoW Forever's chat (as plain text, never links), with how much gold spam and how many possible bots players see on each realm, day by day, and the zones where farming bots gather. It names businesses, never players: spam often comes from hacked accounts. Everything is anonymous counts from Companion 0.20.0 users, and a seller is listed only after 3 different players reported it on 2 realms or days and an admin checked it. Also: why buying gold gets you banned, and how to report spam and bots.
- DPS simulator : Sim a boss fight a thousand times for any of 20 DPS specs at level 20 (or 30): the average DPS with the spread of every outcome, damage by ability, stat weights, which item is better, A-against-B comparisons and a sample fight, from the game client's own abilities and talents, with every assumption labelled.
- Class changes vs Classic, rank by rank, with a Present mode for videos : Each class's Changes vs Classic page is now one simple list: filter by new talents, changed talents, removed or spells, or search, and pick a change to see Forever beside Classic Era. Every spell shows all its ranks side by side, with the changed numbers highlighted and written plainly (Shadow Bolt rank 10: 253–283 instead of 482–538), plus spell power coefficient, cost, cast time, range and duration where they changed (Shadowburn now reaches 30 yards instead of 20). Spell pages have the same All ranks vs Classic table. Present shows one change per screen in big, high-contrast text with no ads or menus, for screen-sharing on video: step through with the arrow keys. Season of Discovery leftovers are labelled, and spells that reuse a Season of Discovery ID are compared with their SoD version. From beta build 70124.
- Tier list maker: make, share and export your own tier list : Make a WoW Forever tier list in seconds: it opens with rows S to F and all 27 specs waiting, with their icons from the game client. Drag them into rows with a mouse or a finger (press and hold on a phone), tap one and then a row, or use the keyboard: focus an entry and press a row's letter or number. Switch the pool to classes, races (Skyborne included), professions or dungeons, or go custom and add any item, spell, mount or talent. Under More: rename, recolour, add or remove rows, set a title and a context (PvP, leveling, dungeons, raids, farming) and start from ForeverDB's own lists or a community list; pick an entry up to give it a note. Share copies a link that holds the whole list, no account needed, and Export image draws it at 1920×1080 for a video thumbnail or square for a post, with a small ForeverDB mark, to download or copy. Logged in, save your lists and publish them to the new community gallery, where players vote and each context gets a community average: players' opinions, labelled as such.
- Downrank calculator: the best rank of every spell : Which rank of a spell gives the most damage or healing for your mana, and which is fastest? Pick your class and a spell and the answer is at the top, worked out at the level cap with example gear: every learned rank's damage or healing per cast, per mana and per second (counting the global cooldown), and how long your mana lasts casting it. Adjust your level, spell or healing power, crit, mana, regeneration, fight length, enemy health or overheal, and the talents that change the spell. A chart shows where a lower rank overtakes a higher one as your gear improves, and every rank is set against Classic Era's. 68 Mage, Warlock, Priest, Shaman, Druid, Paladin and Hunter spells, all from the Forever client, which gives low ranks their full spell power share: Classic Era's low-level penalty isn't in it. It also answers the rumour that Forever sims spam rank 2 Shadow Bolt.
- Talent calculator: levelling order, Classic compare and presets : The talent calculator now records the order you take your talents in, one per level from 10 (or sooner with the Legacy perk Talented), and shows it beside the trees with the beta cap and next cap marked. Drag a level to move it or click it to change its pick; every level is checked against the tree's tier and prerequisite rules, and Fix the order moves a pick to the first level it works. Share links keep the order, old links still open on today's tree, and Copy for the Companion sends the plan to the addon. Compare with Classic marks every talent new or changed with "12% instead of 15%" rank by rank and lists the Classic talents Forever dropped. Builds loads a recommended build in one click, and a summary adds up what your talents do at level 20, 30 or the whole build, with the abilities they give. On phones the trees switch with tabs and a long press opens a talent's card.
- Rare spawns: every rare, where and when : A new rare spawn tracker: 354 rares and rare elites across 38 zones and 10 dungeons, 81 of them up to the level 20 cap. Pick a zone and see each rare's picture, level and when players last saw it in Forever; its own page has its spawn points on the zone map, how long it takes to come back, whether only one of its spawn points is up at a time, its notable loot and whether Hunters can tame it. Rares are also a layer on every zone map. The Forever game cache confirms which creatures are rare (Warlord Kolkanis so far); the rest are from Classic's data and labelled that way until someone sees them in Forever.
- Companion 0.19.0: gold spam and bot reports : The Companion now spots gold and boost spam in say, yell, whispers and the public channels (web addresses written to dodge filters, look-alike letters, real-money gold prices, account and power-leveling selling) and can hide it from chat, while ordinary trade like "WTS [Linen Cloth] 5g" and your guild, group and friends are never touched. It also notices players seen fighting or gathering in one spot for hours, as a hint. Out of combat and never in dungeons or battlegrounds, a small prompt offers to report them: Report opens Blizzard's own report window for that player (addons can't send reports, so you pick the reason and press Send), Ignore never asks again, and /fdb bots lists the last 7 days. The names stay on your PC; the Uploader app (1.5.0) shares only anonymous counts per realm and day.
- Soft reserves, loot log and attendance : Guild tools get what Classic guilds used softres.it and spreadsheets for, next to real loot tables and your calendar. Members soft reserve items on each event from that dungeon's or raid's loot, by boss (or search the client's items when there's no loot table yet); officers set how many each, hard reserves, when reserves lock, whether they're hidden until then, +1s and an attendance bonus, and export as text or CSV. Companion 0.18.0 shows who reserved an item on its tooltip and when it drops (the Uploader app 1.4.0 brings the reserves in, or paste a code with /fdb sr), and records who won each item, so the loot log fills itself from members' uploads, matched to your events, with whether the reserve was honoured. Attendance over 4 and 12 weeks, lates and no-shows come from sign-ups and who was actually in the group. Private to the guild.
- Group finder : Find a group for any WoW Forever dungeon, raid, quest or PvP, or players for yours: post LFG or LFM with your realm, faction, ruleset, level range, the roles you need and a short note, and filter by realm, faction, dungeon, role and level. The list refreshes by itself, posts last an hour (bump once), and the Whisper button copies /w Name-Realm for the game's chat. Every dungeon page links to its groups, and in Discord /lfg post, /lfg list and /lfg subscribe do the same.
- Guild recruitment board : Guilds recruiting ahead of launch, and players looking for a guild. Officers post for their guild (proven from the Companion's guild roster): realm, faction, ruleset, focus, raid nights shown in each visitor's time zone, the classes and specs they want, language, a description and a Discord invite, with the guild's size and its progress from public combat logs. Players post a profile or apply with one message; officers accept or decline in guild tools' new Applications tab and get new applications in Discord.
- Guild events in Discord, with sign-up buttons : Link your guild's ForeverDB calendar to a Discord channel (/guild link, with a code from guild tools) and the bot posts each new event with the sign-ups by role and Accept, Tentative, Late, Bench and Absent buttons and a role menu. The message updates as people sign up there or on ForeverDB, reminders come from the bot, and /event list shows what's next, with a gear check summary for officers. Members link their Discord account once from their profile (/link).
- Guild tools : Run your guild from ForeverDB: officers post dungeon and raid nights (once or every week) with role limits, members sign up with a character, role and status, and officers confirm, bench and sort groups that open straight in the raid planner. New events and a reminder before each one go to your Discord channel, members can get reminder emails and a private calendar feed, and a gear and readiness check shows green, amber or red for everyone who shares, with the reasons and the items they're missing. Membership is proven from the Companion addon's guild roster (Companion 0.17.0), and each character is only shared with the guild if its owner switches that on.
- Tips & questions : Every item, spell, quest, dungeon, boss, class, talent tree, zone map, guide and news post has a Tips & questions block at the bottom: share how to get it, how to beat it or what it's good for, ask other players (and accept the answer that helped), or tell us what's wrong on the page. Posts are short and plain, show the game build they were written on, and sort by players' votes, with the best tip pinned. When ForeverDB checks a tip or correction against the client or players' data it says "Confirmed by ForeverDB", and "Fixed" once a correction is fixed. Unanswered questions get an automatic answer from ForeverDB's own data, marked as ForeverDB's. Log in with Battle.net to post; you can show one of your public armory characters next to your name. Recent posts from across the site are on the new Tips & questions page.
- ForeverDB Discord bot : Add ForeverDB to your Discord server: /item, /spell, /quest, /npc, /dungeon, /boss, /mount and /talent answer with cards drawn like the site's tooltips (icon, quality colour, stats, where to get it and the same Forever client, Seen in Forever, Classic data or Speculation label), with names that autocomplete as you type. /ask answers questions from ForeverDB's data with its sources, /character shows public armory characters, and /news subscribe posts new articles, Blizzard's posts and new finds in the game files to a channel of your choice. It never reads your server's messages.
- Dungeon guides : Every dungeon and raid has a full guide: level range and group size from the client, where the entrance is and the nearest flight master, the bosses in order with their models, abilities and tips by role, a loot table you can filter by slot and class, quests, videos and sources. The Hall of Thanes and Ruins of Lordaeron list the loot the client ties to them, such as the Rotmender's Raiment set, labelled as unconfirmed until players see it drop. The dungeons page has a "Dungeons for level X" view for the level 20 cap and the next one, and shows what each dungeon's loot is worth going for. Every fact says where it comes from: the client, players' drops, Blizzard or Classic.
- Lore for roleplayers : A lore section for roleplayers: every race including the Skyborne, every class, all the factions (with the new Kirin Tor, Earthen Ring, Guardians of Hyjal, Nightclaw Druids, The Watchers, Theramore Expeditionary Force and Darkspear Raiders), Forever's new places, when Forever's story is set in Blizzard's own words, and an RP guide to the Roleplaying ruleset, two-part names, languages and emotes. Written from the game client and Blizzard's posts, with every quote checked word for word and anything unannounced, like Gilneas, marked Speculation.
- Macros for every class : Ready-made macros for all nine classes and every character, with the code to copy, what each one does, how to use it and the level it needs: focus and mouseover crowd control and interrupts, mouseover heals and dispels, stance and form macros, pet control, potions and healthstones in the right order, and Forever's new racials. Every spell name, rank and command is checked against the game client. Each class page has a Macros tab too.
- Mounts page : Every mount in the game files with a picture of each: its speed, the riding it needs, the item that teaches it, Alliance or Horde, its price and where it comes from, with the 39 new ones first. Mounts are much cheaper than in Classic.
- Faction pages : Each faction has its own page: who can earn it and where they start, how you earn it, every reward by standing, and its battleground, titles and Legacy challenges. The Kirin Tor, Earthen Ring, Guardians of Hyjal, Nightclaw Druids, The Watchers, Darkspear Raiders and Theramore Expeditionary Force are new.
- Newsletter : Get a weekly digest, big news only, or both. Sign up now; nothing is sent until you confirm your address.
- New in the game files : The home page now lists what each look at the game files turned up, newest first: new items, abilities, quest lines, events and titles.
- World events : Every holiday and Call to Arms battleground week, with when it runs, its quests, items and vendors, and Forever's new three-week rotation with Darkspear Islands.
- Titles : Every title in the game, male and female, and how to earn it: profession titles, Master Angler, Bloodsail Admiral and the PvP ranks.
- What spells need equipped : 1,862 spells now say what you need equipped (daggers in both hands for Mutilate, a shield, a ranged weapon) and 297 the stance or form they need.
- What recipes teach : Spell pages say which item teaches them, recipe items say what they teach, and the profession pages name each recipe's item.
- Quest map markers : Where 22 quests new to Forever start, end and send you, from the game's own map markers, with their quest lines. Turn on "New quest markers" on the map.
- Report a character or guild : See something wrong on a public armory page? Report it and we'll take a look.
- Talent trees rebuilt : Every class's talents now come from Forever's own talent window: the right talents, ranks and rows, in a new calculator with a tooltip for every rank.
- 36 items from the 28 September hotfixes : Items the Forever servers sent to the game in the latest hotfixes, such as Quillord Mail Leggings, Painwalker Buckler and Winds of Tanaris.
- Companion addon 0.15.0 : The addon now highlights the next talent to pick in Forever's talent window and keeps your armory up to date.
- The Armory : Your characters' gear, talents, professions, reputations and Legacy progress, from the Companion addon. Private until you make them public.
