rogue & warrior - which race?

[tranquil]

yo, im making my first character, will be on the jubei server and going horde. considering a warrior or rogue, i have access to blood elfs too. just not sure what race to pick, what's the best for rogue and best for warrior? cheers

It really depends what you want to do end game, PVP or PVE.

Undead Rogue - PVP (Will of the Forsaken)
Orc Rogue - PVE (Bloodrage) PVP (Stun Resist)
Troll Rogue - PVE (Berserk)
Blood Elf Rogue - PVP (Arcane Torrent)

Same as Above for Warriors.
Tauren Warrior - PVE (5% HP increase) PVP (Warstomp)

Hope it helps.

Pick which one you like the look of or that sounds like it has bonuses you might use. Ultimately it doesn't matter but if you find that you really, really can't live with your choice you can always start over or pay for a Race Change for your character.

Blood Elf Rogues are best if you want something pretty that is still fairly decent in PvE and PvP. Undead Rogue if you don't care about looks.

Of course the real answer is that Gnomes are the best race for Rogues but if you insist on being a filthy Horde race...

yep screw the racials i made my alli warrior a nightelf because they have the best combat animation and with heroic leap in cata they can still flip in the air hehe.

There is no other choice.

BE Rogue and Orc Warrior. However, just pick which ever you would prefer staring at while you're playing... even if that happens to be UD male. *shudder*

But NE is a good Warrior race.


Also, @novo: that's horrible and you should feel horrible.

my undead male is badass with his punk hair-do lol. i made a blood elf warrior as an alt, i probably won't play it though looks a bit queer.

BE Warriors actually have a FABULOUS bar instead of a rage bar.

Once you go Troll. YOU NEVER RE-ROLL!

Sorry, couldn't find the actual picture.

Seriously though, Troll is awesome. My main (A PvE Disc/Holy Priest) is a troll.

As if, it's god damn sexy as hell.


In the end though, it doesn't really matter what race you choose. Some racials are better than others, but the benefit gains are minimal at best. Unless you plan on being a top 50 world guild where every single stat in your item budget matters it's really not worth stressing over. Just go with what you find aesthetically enjoyable.

Orc. Good PVE racials.

BE if you are just rolling for looks like half of the current Horde pop.
