What is new in Forever

  2. Touch of the Grave (5% chance to drain health) replaced Shadow Resistance.

Story and choice

Story

The Forsaken were once people of Lordaeron, raised by the Scourge. The banshee queen Sylvanas Windrunner freed them from the will of the Lich King, and now they build the Undercity beneath the ruins of the old capital.

TipNew combination: a paladin for the Horde, where this class did not exist before.

Best classes

  • WarlockWill of the Forsaken breaks fear, and Cannibalize heals between fights.
  • PriestThe classic Horde shadow priest, with priest spells of its own.
  • PaladinA new combination: the paladin is available to the Horde for the first time.

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