WoW Forever talents: how they work, respecs, dual spec and Legacy Perks

How talents work

1. Your first talent point comes at level 10. The trees keep their familiar structure.¹
2. One-point milestone talents come at 11, 21 and 31 points, and a new one at 16.¹
3. To change talents, Legacy talents included, visit a class trainer in one of the major cities.¹
4. Dual specialization opens at level 40, so you can keep two builds.¹

Talents that used to give other players a key buff, such as Divine Spirit, Blessing of Kings and Improved Mark of the Wild, are now baseline for their classes, so you don’t spend points on them.² Some old talents are baseline abilities now too. Consecration, for one, is learned by every Paladin at level 20.⁴ Blizzard says abilities and talents may still change.¹

Legacy Perks: talents for your account

Legacy Perks are a second set of talent trees, bought with Legacy Points that your whole account shares.³

• Unlocking them. Most players get their first Legacy Point when a character reaches level 25. Reaching 150 in a crafting profession or exploring the whole world map also unlocks the system.³
• Earning points. There are 65 Legacy Challenges, one point each, such as reaching level 25, 45 and 60 with each class.³
• Spending them. Each character can spend up to 16 points at launch, and one character alone can earn up to 29, so you don’t need alts.³
