Fractured: strip class-spell reagents at load; Paragon relic ranged slot
- SpellInfoCorrections: zero Reagent/ReagentCount on spells with non-zero SpellFamilyName so class abilities no longer require shards, candles, etc., while profession crafts (SpellFamilyName 0) keep mats. Matches the client Spell.dbc bake in patch-enUS-4.MPQ. - Paragon_SC: OnPlayerIsClass returns true for CLASS_CONTEXT_EQUIP_RELIC for paladin/druid/shaman/warlock/dk so Paragon can equip all relic types in the ranged slot. - CLIENT-PATCHES: document Spell.dbc reagent pass, rune script order, and stock ammo slot behavior in patch-enUS-5.

| `patch-enUS-4.MPQ` | ~5 MB | DBC + GlueXML bake. Adds `CLASS_PARAGON` (id 12), the character-create slot, glue strings, talent-tab DBC entries, and the Paragon resource bar definitions. Required for character creation as Paragon to even show up. |

| `patch-enUS-5.MPQ` | ~50 KB | FrameXML overrides. Replaces stock `PlayerFrame.lua` / `RuneFrame.lua` / `ComboFrame.lua` / `UnitFrame.lua` / `SpellBookFrame.lua` + `SpellBookFrame.xml` with Paragon-aware versions: rune simulator, combo-point simulator, server-authoritative resource sync over the `PARAA` addon channel, action-button usability + click guards, an expanded spellbook (higher `MAX_SPELLS`, 24 skill-line tabs instead of stock 8) so all-class spells render, and a tooltip post-processor that appends ", Paragon" to the "Classes:" line on class-restricted gear / glyphs (the server bypasses `AllowableClass` for class 12, but the engine paints the line red and omits Paragon — the Lua hook recolors it green and adds the name so the player can tell it's wearable). |

| `patch-enUS-4.MPQ` | ~5 MB | DBC + GlueXML bake. Adds `CLASS_PARAGON` (id 12), the character-create slot, glue strings, game-table DBCs, and a patched `Spell.dbc`: **(1)** `RuneCostID` zeroed on every rune-cost spell so non–Death Knight clients still send DK casts (rune costs are shown via `RuneFrame.lua`); **(2)** `Reagent[]` / `ReagentCount[]` zeroed on every spell whose `SpellFamilyName` is non-zero (all class abilities), while profession crafts (`SpellFamilyName == 0`) keep their materials. Both edits mirror server load-time corrections so client preflight and server validation stay aligned. Required for character creation as Paragon to even show up. |
