Changelog
Each data correction, page and feature on this site, newest first. Data entries name the talents they touched, so you can re-check a saved build in seconds. Game and preview-data changes are listed on Updates.
Every remaining talent rank is now written
The same export fills the 597 previously empty ranks (735 → 1322 recorded) and marks them as source text. About 131 already-written ranks were rewritten, and 69 icons were replaced. Translations that no longer match the English source show English with a pending-translation marker. Racials, priest racials and Legacy perks were not re-adapted in this pass.
Talents touched- Warrior · Arms · Improved Tactical Mastery
- Paladin · Holy · Improved Holy Strike
- Hunter · Marksmanship · Improved Arcane Shot
- Rogue · Subtlety · Camouflage
- Priest · Shadow · Spirit Tap
- Shaman · Enhancement · Thundering Strikes
- Mage · Fire · Wake of Fire
- Warlock · Affliction · Soul Siphon
- Druid · Feral Combat · Thick Hide
Updates hub shows official dates, not invented news
Updates now opens with Blizzard’s announced beta, launch and first-raid dates, plus links to the official announcement and panel recaps. The game-change log stays empty until a later snapshot or official note shows the talent data itself changed. Site history stays on Changelog.
Site changelog moved to its own URL
Updates now means game and preview-data changes. The history of this website — new pages, features, translations and data corrections — lives on Changelog. Class changes remains the curated Classic comparison.
Curated class changes vs Classic
The English Class changes page now publishes fifteen Paladin talent notes sourced from Blizzard’s Deep Dive recap. Each card keeps Classic and current tooltips visible, says what the article actually claimed, and opens that talent in the calculator. It is a curated comparison, not a nine-class dump.
62 more recorded talent ranks
The 16 September upstream export fills 62 previously empty ranks with verbatim text (673 → 735 recorded), replaces 19 guessed icons with the real ones, and updates several Classic comparisons. The tree layout did not change, so every saved draft and shared link keeps working. Translations that no longer match the English source now show English with a pending-translation marker.

Abilities page for all nine classes
A new reference page collects every baseline ability the preview showed as new, changed, renamed, newly trainable or removed, grouped by class with a status legend and links into the talents that use it. Each class page links to its section. Abilities, Racials and Legacy perks now sit in the top navigation.
Consent Mode and no ads on policy pages
Analytics and ads now wait for the Google consent message in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, honour Global Privacy Control in the United States, and no longer load ad code on About, Contact, Privacy, Sources or class reference pages.

Feedback button on every page
A Feedback button in the bottom-right corner opens a short form for a bug, a wrong talent rank or an idea, with an optional reply email. The message is stored in this site’s own database together with the page path, language and data snapshot; your talent points and saved builds are not included. The privacy page describes what is kept.
About and Contact pages, advertising notice
Two footer pages explain who runs the calculator, how its data is made and how to report a wrong rank or a bug. The privacy page gains an Advertising section describing Google AdSense cookies and how to opt out of personalised ads.
Two more verbatim talent ranks
Improved Tactical Mastery now shows its recorded rank 5 (retain up to 15 extra Rage) and Thick Hide its recorded rank 2; Thick Hide rank 3 is a labeled source estimate. The tree layout did not change, so every saved draft and shared link keeps working.
Racials and Legacy perks pages
Two reference pages join the calculator: every race’s four racial abilities, including the Skyborne and the Priest racial spells, and the three account-wide Legacy trees with all recorded perks and ranks.
Baseline ability changes on every class page
Each class page now lists the new, changed and renamed baseline abilities recorded in the preview, next to the talents that build on them.
Copy your build as plain text
A new Copy for AI button exports the selected talents with their recorded rank text, prerequisites and Classic changes as plain text, ready to paste into a chat assistant or a guide.

Launch: nine class planners

Shared build links change version only when the tree layout changes; text-only refreshes keep every link valid. Data & sources → Updates →
