Patch 10.0.0

Patch 10.0.0 is the systems patch to Dragonflight. It introduced the new talent system, new user interface, and have mages, rogues, and priests available to all races and more additional stuff on 25 October 2022.
==New Talent System==
The Dragonflight pre-expansion patch contains major updates to World of Warcraft classes, centering on the re-introduction of talent trees. The new talent system empowers players to make creative and meaningful talent choices without compromising their effectiveness—and most importantly, it gives them meaningful options at every level. Gain talent points with each level-up and spend them in two distinct talent trees – Class talent trees featuring utility skills for your class, and Specialization talent trees that boost your offensive, defensive, or healing powers.
Take a look at some of the features the new talent system brings:
*Change your talents anywhere, for free. Switching talents no longer requires being in a rested area or using tomes. However, you can't change talents during combat, Mythic+ runs, and active PvP matches.
*Starter Build – The Starter Build is a preset talent build available for players who prefer not to choose their own talents, but want a decent build that is suitable for most content.
*Loadouts – Save and switch between multiple talent builds with ease.
**Import Loadouts – Easily import talent builds from outside sources.
**Export Loadouts – Copy a loadout code you can share with friends or online communities.
**Saved Action Bars – By default, each loadout has its own saved set of action bars. However, you can set specific loadouts to share action bars by enabling the loadout option "Use shared action bars."
*Unlearned Talent History – Unlearning a talent high up in the tree may automatically unlearn lots of talents below it. To make it easier to reconstruct your build, these unlearned talents are clearly marked, and you can mass relearn them by using shift click.
*Search Bar
**Locate specific talents, keywords, and even related talents for spotting synergies. For example, searching for "Tidal Waves" will also highlight Riptide, Healing Wave, and Healing Surge since they are mentioned in Tidal Waves' description.
**The search bar also has a preset search to help you easily locate abilities missing from your action bars.
==Mage, Priest, and Rogue Available to All Races==
All playable races can now join the fray as scholarly Mages, cunning Rogues, or devout Priests in the upcoming Dragonflight pre-expansion patch.

*Eternity's End class set bonuses are now legacy and disabled in combat.
**Developers' note: While it's routine for us to mark older set bonuses as Legacy, we do not normally take this step so soon after they were acquired. Unfortunately, the extent of class changes coming in the pre-patch is an exceptional circumstance that has led to this decision. In the future, it is not our intention to repeat this timing when marking class sets as Legacy.To account for the removal of set bonuses and addition of the new talent trees, game content will be re-tuned so that difficulty remains relatively the same.
==Pet Battles==
*Upgrade stones can now be applied to pets directly through the Pet Journal (was use upgrade stone on a summoned pet).
