The reward track
Cosmetic rewards for the points your account has earned in total, not the ones you spend.
Good to know
Earned account-wide
Points belong to your account, each character spends them on its own.
16 per character
Earning more helps your alts, one character stays at 16. Blizzard plans to raise the cap later.
Respec at your trainer
Your class trainer resets your points. In the beta the cheapest reset costs 1 silver, and the price drops one step every hour.
Hardcore works one way
Progress from Hardcore counts everywhere, progress from normal realms does not count in Hardcore.
Comfort, not combat power
No perk gives combat stats. It is all about rested experience, materials, repairs, reputation and honor.
The first point at 25
Your first character reaching level 25 usually gives the first point, a crafting profession at 150 sometimes earlier.

FAQ
What is the Legacy System in WoW Forever?
An account-wide system of challenges. Every challenge you finish gives Legacy Points to the whole account, and each character spends them in three Legacy Trees for comfort perks: Professions, Adventure and Resourcefulness.
Are Legacy Points account-wide?
Yes, you earn them for the whole account. Each character spends them on its own, without taking anything away from your other characters.
How many Legacy Points can one character spend?
Up to 16 per character at launch, even if your account has earned more. Blizzard plans to raise that cap later.
How many Legacy Points are there in total?
65 in total, 55 of them open on launch day: 27 from classes, 18 from professions, 12 from PvP, 3 each from dungeons and raids and 2 from adventure. Without alts you top out around 29.
When do I get my first Legacy Point?
Usually when your first character reaches level 25. A crafting profession at skill 150 or the whole world map explored on one character earns it too.
Which Legacy perks are the best?
For leveling Well Rested, Thrill of Adventure, Talented and Frequent Flier. For gold Bountiful Harvest and Working Overtime. At 60 Reagent Economy counts as one of the best single picks.
Can I reset my Legacy Points?
Yes, at your class trainer. As with talents, the price climbs with every reset. In the beta the cheapest reset cost 1 silver and the price dropped back one step every hour. That was a beta-only setting, the launch prices are not out yet.
Do beta testers get free Legacy Points?
Yes. Since October 8 every beta player has a beta-only Legacy Challenge done that gives 16 Legacy Points, enough for a full build. That way the system can be tested without leveling many classes first. It only counts in the beta and stays until the beta ends.
Does the Legacy System work in Hardcore?
Only one way. Progress made in Hardcore counts for the whole account, but progress from normal realms does not carry into Hardcore. PvP challenges cannot be done there, so Hardcore brings 12 challenges of its own when it launches.
Do Legacy perks make my character stronger in combat?
No. The perks are comfort: more rested experience, more materials, cheaper repairs, more reputation and honor. No perk gives combat stats.
What does the reward track give?
Cosmetics for the points your account has earned in total: an air rifle at 15, a pet at 25, a tabard at 40 and the Spectral Bear mount at 55.
As of Nov 6, 2026.
