Class Highlights - Part 1: Warrior, Shaman, Rogue | World of Warcraft: Forever
Summary
Blizzard's first class video covers 
Warrior, 
Shaman and 
Rogue changes in Forever, from steadier Warrior rage to a Shaman totem bar and smoother Rogue energy. It is a short design overview, and later beta patches have changed some details. For Warriors it describes tank-focused additions; for Shamans, easier totem handling; for Rogues, continuous energy and merged weapon talents.
Highlights
- Warrior rage now arrives at a steady rate tied to weapon speed, and counts the damage an enemy tried to deal before mitigation.
- Protection Warriors can use
Thunder Clap and 
Charge from 
Defensive Stance, and 
Shield Wall, 
Retaliation and 
Recklessness have separate cooldowns. - Arms and Rogue weapon specialisations are merged into single talents (Weapon Master,
Hack and Slash), so a new weapon needs no respec. - Shamans can drop a full set of four totems with one of three new Call spells, move them with
Totemic Projection, and keep them for five minutes; 
Riptide, 
Lava Burst and 
Lightning Overload are new. - Rogue energy refills continuously;
Subtlety gains Cutthroat, and 
Assassination gets a two-weapon 
Mutilate and the 
Venom finisher.
