This ledger describes the Forever database snapshot reviewed on 20 September 2026. Counts refer to published reference records, not verified playable objects.

Database Records What the count means
Items 17,592 Named item records with disclosed ItemSparse fields
Abilities 29,414 Named spell records, including effects and creature spells
Recipes 2,258 Crafting or enchantment spells on a profession skill line
Quests 1,530 Distinct quest IDs listed by reviewed Forever sources
NPCs 2,510 Creature entries without established hostile/combat classification
Monsters 160 Creature entries with reported hostility or kills
Zones 1,340 Area and map records, including subareas
Dungeons 35 Maps classified as party instances by the client
Raids 13 Maps classified as raid instances by the client

Exact-build client data

The item, spell, crafting and world records come from the archived Wago exports for Forever beta build 1.60.1.69913, checked against the collector's hashes. Blizzard's build configuration identifies this as WOW-69913patch1.60.1_ForeverBeta. Named records can still be inherited, disabled or unavailable.

  • Item lists: 31,675 base identifiers; 19,171 ItemSparse rows. 12,504 item IDs lack a disclosed ItemSparse row in this export. We do not fill their names or statistics from Classic or another edition.
  • Spell lists include creature spells, triggered effects and inherited rows. They are not all learnable player abilities. Spell-level bookkeeping fields are not treated as learning levels.
  • Item stat allocation fields are not final tooltip values. Armor, weapon damage and bonuses are omitted where their calculation has not been verified.
  • Profession recipes require an actual create-item or enchant-item effect. Gathering, tracking and class abilities are not inflated into recipe counts.
  • Explicitly marked developer/unused records and recipes explicitly categorized as Season of Discovery are excluded. Their IDs and reasons remain in the local coverage ledger. Shared ingredients are not excluded merely because another edition used them.
  • Location records include subareas and legacy instance classifications. The list does not establish entrances, encounter rosters, level recommendations or current access.

Quest and creature evidence

The public Warcraft Forever quest index, NPC index, 60.tools quests and creatures supply factual identifiers, names and reported fields. Narrative quest text and site-written guide prose were not copied.

  • The Warcraft Forever quest snapshot lists 1,509 IDs; only 103 have its logged flag. Unlogged placeholders are not treated as witnessed NPC handovers.
  • 1,492 of the imported quest IDs also occur in the archived QuestV2 table. An ID match does not verify quest text, objectives or rewards.
  • 654 ID/name pairs agree between the two public sources. The matched names do not authenticate every other field.
  • Missing capture builds remain “Not reported”. The raw player sessions have not been independently authenticated. Recorded drop counts are not loot probabilities or exhaustive loot tables.
  • Creature entries are grouped as monsters only when the publisher reports hostility or kills. An unclassified NPC can still be hostile; friendliness is not inferred from a missing flag.

Earlier licensed spell text

1,732 spell pages include separately labelled text from the Talents Forever export for build 1.60.1.69876. It is attributed to Chris Baldwin under CC BY 4.0. IDs and names must agree before the older tooltip is attached. No Classic fallback or demo entry is used.

What remains incomplete

This is not a complete copy of the beta server database. Hidden item names and stats, all quests and their full objectives, creature spawns, vendor inventories, drop rates, recipe acquisition, encounter abilities and current availability need further Forever evidence. An absent source field is not a zero value. Record pages are kept out of search-engine indexing while remaining searchable inside the wiki.

The build's raw archive contains 610 of 612 advertised client tables. Its technical row count is not an article count. Raw archive coverage and the broader source library explain the distinction.
