for sure, stoneform guarantee a vanish (when CD is up), there are many rogues who are okay to play without stoneform and they play well. Stoneform isn’t really important.
Orc’s 3 impactful racials still better than dwarf stoneform
here it is →
the facts are that shamans and hardiness + will of forsaken are big advantages with no equivalent in alliance’s side
every stun resisted vs one of the 5 orc’s classes is an issue
every fear have no value vs one of the 5 forsaken’s classes (you can’t argue with dwarf priest fearward, it’s for a single target each X minutes, it’s less impactful than an army of forsaken)
use a fear against horde → they resist → you die → you ress → go back to the battlefield →
so bubble every 5min is not a big problem
Orcs (warrior, chaman, hunter, warlock, rogue) = ~50% of a BG team
have 25% stun resist on:
Warrior’s charges, prot stuns
Spriest’s stun
Firemage’s stun
Paladin’s stun
Feral’s stuns
Rogue’s stuns
Hunter’s stuns (pet’s stun too)
this is really too broken
the other ~50% of the horde BG team are forsakens with personal anti-fears
the game can’t stay in this state… or it’s dead in the egg
