Devastate is unchanged in WoW Forever: the client ships the same tooltip as Classic Era. Its tooltip reads: "While you are in Defensive Stance and have a shield equipped, Sunder Armor also deals damage equal to 150% of your equipped weapon's damage per second, increased by 10% per application of Sunder Armor already on the target. Devastate damage deals a high amount of threat while you are in Defensive Stance."

Devastate tooltip, the same in Classic Era and WoW Forever

The same tooltip in both clients: every line the Forever client ships matches Classic Era.
