WoW Forever Warlock Spellbook

Every trainer-taught ability, ordered by the level you learn it. Abilities that are new or changed compared to Classic are marked, and changed ones show exactly what differs from the Classic tooltip.

Pre-beta compilation — The Forever client data is not out yet, so this layers changes seen in BlizzCon 2026 footage and screenshots on top of the Classic client ability tables. Abilities not seen in footage show their Classic values, and everything will be refreshed from beta data.
