In this build

Compared record by record between the two builds. The full lists are one page per group, linked below, and every name on them links to its own page where one exists. 4,833 spell records and 10,044 item records from Era are not in this build; developer and test records are left out of every list.

Grouped by slot for equipment and by type for everything else; best quality first. Each group is its own page.

A spell is listed under a class when it is on that class's ability list or in its talent trees in this build; the class pages and Class changes have the details. Everything else (creature spells, item effects, quest and event spells) is under Other spells.

Talents

467 talents in the Forever trees
110 not in the Era trees
27 tabs

The Forever class talent trees are in the build's new talent data: 467 talents and 1,323 ranks in 27 tabs. 27 of 27 tabs have exactly one one-point talent in tier 4, the 16th point. Against the Era trees of 1.15.9.69722: 110 talents are only in Forever, 75 only in Era, and 178 of 357 matched talents changed. Talents are matched by spell, then by name, including talents that moved to another tree of the class. A matched talent counts as changed when its spell, its number of ranks, its tree, its position or what it requires is different. The old talent table left over from Classic Era still ships in this build, unchanged apart from a cleared class field; the game does not use it.

That the game draws its talent frame from the new talent data and not from the old table is inferred from the data. It was not verified in game. Matching: same first-rank spell id within a tab, else same name.

Every new zone, subzone and map of this build is on one page. A new record can carry the name of a zone that already exists (a phased copy of a live zone). Every zone in the build, new or not, is under Zones.
