Sources & scope

Blizzard’s Deep Dive explains the racial redesign and new class combinations. Ability text and class lists are adapted from Talents Forever’s September 18 export, attributed under CC BY 4.0. Game text and artwork belong to Blizzard Entertainment. These community records are not a Blizzard API or our own gameplay tests. Priest-specific racial spells need a separate class reference and are not included here.

The latest export corrects some descriptions and faction assignments. An export correction alone does not establish a new game balance change. No race is ranked as universally best.
