FAQ
Is this the real WoW Forever Shaman talent tree?+
Yes. The trees are read from the Forever game client's own data tables (build 1.60.1.70790), so names, ranks, tiers and prerequisites match what you see in game. We update them when a new build changes talents.
What changed for Shaman talents compared with Classic Era?+
By name, Elemental gains Trial by Fire, Elemental Reach, Elemental Alacrity and loses Improved Fire Totems, Elemental Mastery, Storm Reach; Enhancement gains Spirit Weapons and loses Parry; Restoration gains Natural Grace and loses Healing Grace. Numbers inside unchanged talents can differ too, so read the tooltip before copying an old build.
What are the Shaman 31-point talents?+
Elemental: Lightning Mastery. Enhancement: Stormstrike. Restoration: Mana Tide Totem. Each needs 30 points spent in its tree, which means at least level 39.
How do I share my build?+
Press Copy link. The link keeps both the ranks and the order you clicked, so whoever opens it sees the same build and the same level-by-level order. Copy for Discord gives a short text summary with the link.
Can I import a build from another calculator?+
Paste the other site's link or its rank string (for example 2300-05) into Import. Most classic calculators use the same rank-string shape, so it usually works; anything the Forever rules don't allow is dropped.
