What is new in Forever

Warcraft Tavern

Compared with Classic. Blizzard may still change the numbers before release.

  1. New class: Shaman. The first Alliance shaman in the history of Classic.
  2. Earth Fury replaced Gun Specialization.
  3. Big Game Hunter replaced Frost Resistance.
  4. Fear Ward is now available to every priest, so a dwarf is no longer required.

Best classes

  • ShamanA new combination, and only the dwarf has it among the old Alliance races.

  • HunterBig Game Hunter adds damage against beasts while levelling.

This is the author’s opinion. Any allowed combination is playable.
