What your class learns at each level
The abilities and ranks of every class from level 1 to 60, taken from the game client.
Zones without a confirmed level range
They are in the game client, but their level range is not known yet, so we do not place them in any bracket. We will add them as soon as it is confirmed.
Shen'dralas New
Mid-level zone located between Mulgore and Desolace. Level range not yet confirmed.
View on map →Gilneas New
The walled kingdom behind the Greymane Wall opens in Forever. Level range to be confirmed.
No map in the client yetTips to level faster
Rested experience
Logging out in an inn or a capital builds up rest, which doubles the experience from enemies until it runs out. It is the same Classic mechanic as always.
Legacy: Well Rested
Legacy gives 16 points per character at launch. Well Rested, in those trees, increases rested experience. Worth a look before you start.
Camping
The Cooking Fire creates a camp with vendors, repairs and profession benches, and other players can craft you up to 3 items that grant one-hour buffs. Fewer trips back to town.
Dungeon groups
There is no Dungeon Finder announced, so groups are formed by hand. A guild or a fixed leveling group makes the difference, especially in the new dungeons.
No level scaling
Forever does not scale zones to your level: if a zone runs dry, move to the next one in the bracket instead of squeezing it.
Crafted food and mount
Crafted food gives a small experience bonus, and your mount already includes the riding skill. There are no flying mounts.
Where the data comes from
Level ranges come from our zone atlas (the client does not include them yet). Each zone's faction and the flight masters come from the game client; ship routes from our atlas; dungeons and their levels from our dungeon list. The zone order follows the well-known Classic leveling path, adapted to Forever's new zones; we never invent Forever quests or numbers.
