From character to comparison
A useful answer in three steps.
The familiar MaxDPS path, rebuilt around transparent inputs and WoW Forever data.
- 01
Open your build
Choose a specialization and, where needed, its exact role or weapon profile.
- 02
Tell us how you play
Set your level, preferred activities and effort. Advanced assumptions stay available when you want them.
- 03
Compare the slot
Filter equipment, compare weighted points, and follow each item's acquisition sources.
Useful now. Honest about what comes next.
Gear comparisons you can inspect.
MaxDPS shows the assumptions behind every comparison instead of hiding them behind a single unexplained number.
- Imported Forever equipment organized by class, build, and slot.
- Editable stat priorities with the applied values visible beside the results.
- Acquisition sources carried through from the catalog where available.
- Weighted points, not DPS. Mechanics and optimal recommendations still require validation.
The same purpose, a new adventure
Remember checking one more drop?
MaxDPS helped players make sense of gear before the next pull. The new site keeps that practical focus for World of Warcraft: Forever.
Every item in the game files is ranked for every build and level, and every item, boss and dungeon links to the next. Choose a build above and see exactly how each score is formed.
