Rogue

Trees: Assassination · Combat · Subtlety

New or changed baseline abilities

Baseline spells the Forever tooltips mention that are not in Classic, inferred from the demo.

Axes
Rogues can apparently wield one-handed axes now. Hack and Slash (Combat) lists Axe/Sword, Dagger/Fist and Mace as its weapon groups, and Classic rogues could not equip axes at all.

Blade Flurry and Adrenaline Rush are Combat talents in Forever, so they are in this book because the demo rogue had them talented. Not baseline.

No Riposte in the book at 38, which just means that rogue had not taken it.

Blind at 38 with no reagent line visible; Disarm Trap is still trained.
