- You have 51 points, one per level from 10 to 60.
- Every 5 points in a tree open its next row, and some talents need a maxed talent above them first.
- Click a talent to add a point; right-click or Shift-click to remove one. On a touch screen, tap a talent and use its buttons.
- Your build lives in the page link, so copying the link saves and shares it.
- Turn on Highlight Forever changes to spot every new and reworked talent.
What Forever Changes in Rogue Talents
- 10 of Rogue's 53 talents are new in Forever, and 30 change from their Classic versions.
- The three trees keep their Classic rows, with a new milestone talent at 16 points in each tree.
- Spell, melee, and ranged hit are one stat, and critical strike works the same way.
- Group buffs that used to cost talent points are now baseline, which frees points for new choices.
