Classic Era vs Forever

The same tooltip players see in-game, side by side, with each changed line marked.

This is a trainer "learn" spell (game effect type Learn Spell): the client entry a trainer uses to teach this rank, not the castable ability itself. Blizzard ships it under the same name and rank as the spell it grants, so it appears as a separate same-named entry.
