What people are building

Every build here was made by someone using the calculator on this site and saved to a public link. Nobody has played Forever yet, so treat the list as what players are trying out before beta rather than as settled theorycraft. Votes and views are counted once per visitor; builds saved as private are never listed or counted. Warlock is the most saved class so far, with 234 public builds.

Builds with a page of their own

192 of the saved builds have been written up in full: every talent they take, at the rank they take it, with the Forever tooltip for that rank. A build earns one by being a finished spec that more than a couple of people voted on and liked, and by not being a near-copy of one already listed.

How build links work

Spending points rewrites the address bar, so the URL in your browser always is the build on screen. Copy it and it opens exactly as you left it, with no account and nothing to install. A build link carries only the points, so it keeps working when the dataset is rebuilt from the beta client; if a talent it used has moved or gone, the calculator drops that point rather than silently putting it somewhere else.

Why these are not build guides

There are no recommended builds on this site and there will not be until the game is playable and there is something real to measure. What is here instead is the raw record: every talent marked as new, rewritten or verified identical to Classic Era, with the footage it came from, so you can judge a build yourself. When beta changes something, it is listed on the beta changes page rather than quietly edited.
