Which Classic Mage abilities are gone in WoW Forever?
Every Classic Era Mage ability is still in the WoW Forever beta files: none is removed. Some changed their levels, ranks or numbers, as listed above, and a few may be listed below with old ranks the files no longer describe. Talents are not counted here: they have their own calculator.
Not verifiable in the beta
Detect Magic
Classic levels: 16
Classic: Detects beneficial magic effects on the target for 2 min.
Still listed by the beta files, without its text: we cannot tell whether it changed.
Where does this list come from?
From the game tables of the WoW Forever beta client (build 1.60.1.70532) and of Classic Era (build 1.15.9.70003), read on wago.tools: levels, ranks, costs, cooldowns and tooltip texts. How Classic players got each spell (trainer, quest, book) comes from the cMaNGOS classic-db project. Trainer prices are not in these files, so we show none. Beta data can change before the November 4, 2026 launch.
