A living talent tree
This is an unofficial preview based on community transcriptions of BlizzCon footage. Some ranks are inferred from Classic or scaled estimates. The 51-point cap and 5-points-per-tier rule are provisional. Check each talent’s data confidence before relying on a build.

Choose a class, explore its three specializations, and plan how to spend your talent points. Save the build in this browser, or click Share build to create a link you can bookmark.
Higher tiers need points in earlier rows. Arrow-linked talents also require ranks in a specific talent. Remove dependent talents first, or reset an entire tree to start fresh.
Before you adventure
How do I save and share my build?
Click Share build to copy a bookmarkable link, or use My builds to save it in this browser. Anyone with the link can restore the same allocation. No account is required.
Can I remove talent points on my phone?
Tap a talent to select it, then use the minus button in the talent details below the trees. Desktop players can also right-click a talent or press the minus key while it is focused.
Are these the final WoW Forever talents?
No. These are community preview data, with unconfirmed ranks marked in each talent’s details. Talent layouts, values, and point rules may change during Beta. Links from incompatible data versions are rejected rather than silently changed.
Why can’t I remove a point?
A later talent may require it directly or need those points to unlock its tier. Remove the dependent ranks first, or use Reset tree.
