Edgemasters & weapon skill

If you’re re-designing classic, this is very important area of the game to focus on.
In classic we had so called “meme-races”. Troll/Tauren/UD and Gnome/Dwarf/Nelf were all handicapped against Humans and Orcs.
If I’m rolling warrior, my first priority will be the dagger gloves from Molten Core. I don’t think I will be the only one so there’s gonna be big que for the item. As a side-thought, if I was really serious, I would level multiple warriors to get more changes on that item.
There are ways to work around this, like getting Dire Maul off hand dagger with weapon skill. But still, 80% of the weapons will be unusable for the meme-races.
The entire meta-game of one class shouldn’t revolve around one epic lvl 44 item.

I totally agree my friend weapon skill shouldn’t be that important or they should introduce something like to make blacksmiths more useful weaponsmiths could get some expertise to their speciality ,example swordsmansmith could get 3-4 to all swords or to his crafted swords only etc for macesmith and others

never heard “meme races” LOL relax dude horde racials are insane especially for pvp. btw isnt troll caster bis and tauren f. weapon skill only matter really for raiding when the mobs are like 3 levels above you

I think they developed the game as something called MMORPG, or similar. Are you saying the game is broken because minmaxe-people feel they cant play with out that item?

Having the weapon skill boost (+5) would give you almost 20% damage increase. So it doesn’t make sense to play without weapon skill (edgemasters or +dagger item). Everyone is forced to go Orc/Human.
