Wowhead reports two World of Warcraft: Forever developments in its latest notices: a Horde-only early quest for Druid and Shaman relics in the Skyborne starting area, and a summary of Blizzard’s official Forever video.
Early Horde relics in Skyborne
According to Wowhead’s report, a quest available around levels 5–6 can reward a Druid Idol and Shaman Totem. Wowhead says Horde characters can reach the quest through Skyborne’s starting area, while other Horde characters can travel there through the Skywatcher Plateau route.
Wowhead also reports that Alliance characters cannot take the quest, even if they reach the area. Its assessment is that the early relic slot may give Horde Druids and Shamans an earlier item than their Alliance counterparts. The notice describes the relic effects as useful but limited during the early game, rather than presenting them as a major power increase.
This remains an observed Wowhead report. The supplied evidence does not establish final relic statistics, balance, or whether the reported access remains unchanged in a published build.
What Wowhead says the official video covers
In a second notice, Wowhead summarizes a Blizzard video as presenting Forever as a separate experience from Modern and Classic WoW, with emphasis on leveling, account-wide rewards, new dungeons, quests, zones, raids, and tradeskill recipes.
Wowhead’s summary names
Riverglades connections involving the Brotherhood of the Horse, the Boulderrock Ogre clan, and the Twilight’s Hammer. It describes Hyjal as the leveling finale and says the area contains both raids. The notice also reports that Skyborne are a new race with their own racials and a choice of Horde or Alliance, alongside Dwarf Shaman, Gnome Priest, Human Hunter, Orc Mage, Troll Warlock, and Forsaken Paladin combinations.
The snapshot identifies these details as Wowhead’s summary of an official video. It does not provide the complete race and class matrix, full racial details, final mechanics, beta access information, or launch rules. No separate Blizzard source was supplied for this roundup.
