# Sets, instances and bosses — September 17, 2026

Client **1.60.1.69876**, compared with Classic **1.14.4.51395** and SoD **1.15.9.69722**.

[Open the searchable findings](https://maf2414.github.io/wow-forever-talents/content.html).

Independent CDN extraction: **15 tables, 35,913 rows, 2,193,448 compared fields**. All ten nonempty tables match the CSV exports. Five journal tables are present but empty.

## Findings

51 set IDs are absent from both baselines: 18 Tier 1 class/role sets, 26 PvP-named variants and seven other sets. A new ID is not proof of a new appearance or an obtainable reward.

80 sets sharing a Classic ID have changed names, item membership, bonus spell links or resolved bonus text. The viewer includes the Classic bonuses. This is not a full comparison of item stats or triggered effects.

The 18 Tier 1 sets have six member IDs each and four linked bonuses at 2, 3, 4 and 5 pieces. Their spell names explicitly say Tier 1. All 108 referenced tier-item IDs lack ItemSparse metadata in this snapshot; exact item stats, drop sources and raid assignments remain unverified.

## Raids and limits

[Blizzard announced Hyjal Summit (20 players), Barrow Deeps (10 players) and nine dungeons](https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/24303862/world-of-warcraft-forever-whats-next-panel-recap). Those announcements are tracked separately from client findings.

No newly added map has InstanceType=2 (raid) in this snapshot. Hyjal Crater (2995) has InstanceType=4 (arena); it must not be substituted for Hyjal Summit. No boss roster for Hyjal Summit or Barrow Deeps was established from the inspected tables.

Half-Pint Tavern (3002) and Manor Mistmantle (3109) are dungeon-type records, but are not established as announced dungeons. The former has two encounter records; the latter has none. They may represent quest spaces or unfinished content.

Creature.db2 is not a complete server NPC database. The inspected tables cannot verify world-boss spawns, drop tables, release readiness or hidden/encrypted/unavailable content. An absent record does not prove cancelled content.

The Retribution set’s 4-piece internal spell name says Undead, while the description says Demons. Both are retained in the viewer. Guardian in the Druid set labels means a bear-role label in these records, not evidence of a fourth talent tree.

## Reproduction

Source tables: ItemSet, ItemSetSpell, ItemSparse, ItemEffect, Map, MapDifficulty, DungeonEncounter, AreaTable, LFGDungeons and Creature. JournalInstance, JournalEncounter, JournalEncounterCreature, JournalEncounterItem and JournalEncounterSection were independently decoded and are empty.

[Extraction hashes and field comparison](content-audit.json) · [All findings and source IDs](content-data.json).

Uses the CASCLib / DBCD extraction method and source revisions documented in [the talent audit](audit.md). Map, AreaTable and ItemSparse anonymous export columns are mapped to the independently named DB2 layout in column order; mappings and schema hashes are recorded in the audit.

With the preserved source exports and decoded client files present, run `python scripts/build_content.py`. The builder asserts source equality, baseline classification, all 18 tier-set bonus thresholds, Classic tier references and encounter counts before writing the page.
