Game versionsThe War Within
Historical context
The War Within begins the Worldsoul Saga beneath Azeroth in Khaz Algar. Hero Talents add another specialization-related layer to character development.
The Earthen and the subterranean regions have their own story and access context. Their later availability must not be propagated into historical clients through one global expansion number.
Hero Talents sit alongside class and specialization graphs. A build needs the selected subtree, its actual eligibility and its own versioned requirements, not an extra copy of a legacy point tree.

Official information ↗Launch dates refer to the named region. A month or year reflects the precision supported by the source. Early access and pre-expansion updates are listed separately; the selected client may come from a later expansion patch.
