Wowhead reports on WoW Forever: Blizzard teases unlock changes for dual spec, possibly from level 40 to 30, but no final change is confirmed.

World of Warcraft: Forever does not yet have a confirmed earlier dual spec unlock. According to Wowhead’s report, Josh Greenfield said during episode three of the WoW: Forever podcast that dual spec is currently set to unlock at level 40, while the team is still discussing the appropriate level.
Which dual spec unlock levels were mentioned?
Wowhead’s account identifies two levels, but they were not presented with equal certainty.
| Level | How it was presented |
|---|---|
| 40 | The current setting described by Greenfield |
| 30 | A tentative possibility, phrased as a “cheeky thirty” rather than a decision |
Level 30 should therefore be treated as an option raised during the discussion, not an announced replacement for level 40.
What would an earlier unlock mean for players?
Wowhead interprets an earlier unlock as a way to maintain a separate dungeon talent build sooner, particularly for players whose dungeon role is not the build they prefer while questing. Until Blizzard settles on a level, players should not plan their leveling route around dual spec becoming available at 30.
What is not confirmed?
The evidence is limited to a secondary Wowhead report quoting a podcast discussion. It does not establish that Blizzard has approved a change, what the final unlock level will be, when any revision would take effect, which build it would apply to, or whether level 40 will remain the setting. It also provides no details about costs, respec restrictions, or other dual spec mechanics.
