WoW Forever Beta Update Guide: Level 30 Cap, Hybrid Tax, New Dungeons, and Major Class Changes

The WoW Forever Beta received a major update on October 1, 2026, raising the level cap to 30, adding new dungeons, and making significant class and economy changes. The update includes a 'hybrid tax' where hybrid classes, like warriors, receive a 5% damage penalty. New dungeons like Hillsbrad Foothills and Wetlands are available, and the Black Market Auction House introduces fixed-price vendors. The level 30 cap is expected to remain until the Beta ends, and the development team aims to encourage open-world exploration over repeated dungeon farming.
