Races

Ranked by how many of a race's racials touch what this spec does, read out of the game's own wording and out of the weapon its gear list aims for. Those are lit; the number on the right is the count. It is a measure, not a verdict: nothing in the beta has been parsed yet, so anything stronger would be a guess.

Alliance Alliance

  1. 1 Dwarf Big Game Hunter Stoneform Find Treasure Earth Fury 2
  2. 2 Skyborne Elemental Insight Walk on Air Wind Blessed Read Leyline 2

Every race's racials, Classic beside Forever.

What Forever changed

7 new, 23 rewritten, 1 no longer taught, across the whole class. Every ability, rank by rank.

New abilities

An X stands where the client would put a number it works out from your own character. The source publishes the formula rather than the value, so it is left as X rather than guessed at.
