Data & Sources
Every number on this site traces back to a recorded source and a published snapshot. This page lists the sources, what the current snapshot covers, how each evidence status is defined, and how updates are handled.

Having text is not the same as being verified. Most rank texts in this snapshot are source estimates, and a large share of ranks have no confirmed text at all. Accuracy claims belong to the per-rank evidence status below, not to the coverage totals.
Evidence Status Definitions
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Official | The fact is confirmed directly by officially published material. |
| Client verified | We checked this field against a specific game client build ourselves. |
| Footage verified | We checked the claim against recorded footage or screenshots, with timestamps. |
| Community record | Transcribed by the community; we have not independently verified the original footage. |
| Source estimate | Estimated by the data source itself, not measured in-game. |
| Unverified | Effect text exists, but its evidence status is unclear. |
| Unknown | No effect text is available for this rank. |
Statuses are stored per rank, not per page or per class: an official announcement about one preview change does not upgrade the evidence status of every rank description on that talent.
Snapshot & Update Policy
Published snapshots are immutable. Class data files live under content-hashed paths, and the manifest maps each file hash to a snapshot ID. When the data is updated, a new snapshot is published alongside the old one — old files are never overwritten.
Share links record the snapshot they were created with, so a link built
on snap-ce4da8695e9d will keep restoring that exact
version even after the calculator defaults to newer data. Each update is
announced with what changed, which classes are affected, and what
remains unknown.
