Players brainstorm potential new classes for Forever
30.09.2026Forum users are debating which classes could join World of Warcraft: Forever beyond the lineup already available in the open beta. Top ideas include a ranged class with no beast theme, a witch in the spirit of the Old Gods, and a spear-and-bow amazon.
Forum users in a thread about hypothetical new class picks are debating who else should make it into World of Warcraft: Forever. The open beta (September 17 – October 21, 2026) grants access to a fixed class lineup for levels 1–30, and a chunk of the community is already speculating about what Blizzard might add after the global launch on November 4, 2026.
What players are pitching
- A ranged class with no beast theme. Forum user Bambldor argues that ranged weapons shouldn't be a hunter-only thing, and proposes a dedicated class with three possible specializations: a "Dark Ranger" in Sylvanas's spirit, a Worgen hunter with a Gilneas flavor, and a ranged fighter wielding an automatic rifle in a space marine style.
- A witch in the spirit of the Old Gods. Among the options discussed in the thread, the author would vote for a witch class — not the "Void powers" version, but something closer to the Old Gods' aesthetic.
- An amazon with a bow and spear. The author points out that Diablo IV's Amazon was built around a bow and spear, and he'd love something similar in WoW: mid-range spear combat with the ability to throw it, plus a bow. Survival Hunter is built around grenades and a shotgun, leaving no room for that "mid-range" playstyle.
What others are saying
A second participant takes it further and speculates that Blizzard had been working on these classes for the current version, but they didn't make it into release — and in Forever, according to him, there are no limits and you can do anything. This is, however, just his guess, with no links to official sources.
What it actually means
For now, this is just a forum thread. Blizzard hasn't officially announced any of this, and there are no public materials describing or comparing the variants — only the thread title, where players are already voting for who they'd like to play. If you want to have a say in the class lineup, follow Blizzard's official channels and don't mistake the wishlist for a roadmap.
