Whether it&#8217;s items with far more spellpower at early levels or gear tailored towards professions, Blizzard is definitely mixing things up so that the game&#8217;s leveling journey, and its endgame, are going to feel all new.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As broken down in detail by Icy Veins, part of how Blizzard looks to be accomplishing this is by keeping almost 40% of the game&#8217;s nearly 32,000 items a secret. Dataminers can technically see that these 12,000 plus items exist and even where many of them potentially come from, but can&#8217;t see what their stats are. Many of these items are assumed to be all-new, though some are likely variants or modified version of items from WoW Classic.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What is World of Warcraft: Forever?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dvueCoFTkCk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Players have already taken a bite out of that 12,500 item total, having discovered over 4,400 &#8220;hidden&#8221; items in the Forever beta. Once an item has been discovered, it&#8217;s then revealed in the game&#8217;s backend. Icy Veins notes that not all the items datamined might actually exist in Forever, as it lists a number of items that were part of WoW Classic&#8217;s Season of Discovery and might not make it into Blizzard&#8217;s new version of the MMO.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many of the hidden items come from raids and dungeons, including tier sets. So far, players have uncovered a few different sets, such as some low-level dungeon item sets, as well as full loot tables for early-game dungeons like Wailing Caverns, Ragefire Chasm, Shadowfang Keep, and the Deadmines. The beta&#8217;s level cap is currently 20 (but will be raised to 30 before the beta&#8217;s end), meaning players will likely uncover even more dungeon loot ahead of launch.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The aura of discovery and mystery players are experiencing as they explore Azeroth once more is just one of the reasons Forever&#8217;s beta looks to be wildly popular. Multiple WoW devs, including Blizzard VP Holly Longdale, have commented that the beta is breaking player-number records, and Blizzard has had to raise the beta&#8217;s population cap as a result. However, the beta hasn&#8217;t been without controversy, as a recent streamer scandal involving gold trading has players demanding Blizzard do more to combat real-money transactions and gold buying.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WoW: Forever&#8217;s beta ends October 21, with the game&#8217;s full launch set for November 4. Blizzard&#8217;s third version of its MMO will add over 1,000 new quests to classic Azeroth, as well as new zones and endgame content. Though there won&#8217;t be a new class at launch, a recent Blizzard survey revealed 11 new potential WoW: Forever classes that could come to the MMO in the future.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/articles\/wow-forever-is-keeping-more-than-12500-items-secret\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World of Warcraft: Forever is looking to keep its secrets, as over 12,500 items in the game&#8217;s files have been kept hidden from dataminers.
