When we check pvp ladderboard, we can clearly spot, this game doesnt gives you to chose your faction or race. Warriors MUST be gnome, Rogs MUST be nelf. If a healer spec can be nelf they MUST be nelf. This is the best MMORPG game in the world, but we cant pick our faction if we wants to make mainly pvp. Its not normal. There is so many pve main guy talks its not so important but they have no idea about how over power some skills.
When you doin pve, you doin your rotation for maximizing your dam/heal but imagine, when you playin warrior, you can play remove root with your racial or you should spend your avatar or bladestorm for remove root. Or imagine you waiting to be out of combat for drink milk as healer while someone send their pet on you or you just shadowmeld, or imagine all rogues have 2 Vanish charges and some rogs are 3 (nelf). Do you guys think its fair? Its not a big problem for pve because its so minor, but for pvp its soooo much mandatory because effecting everything. Not eve high raiting pvp, even 1600-1800 raiting players need this advantage for their skill level. So please let people plays what they want. Remove this racials, or make them waaay more passive like mount speed buff, little haste little mastery little versa or crit, like %1-2 or complately remove, every single BM hunter plays orc. No need this really. Let them play what they wants.
any competitive pvp / pve where racials make any % of impact. playing nelf rogue or gnome / orc warrior or w/e other generic race / class pick is the go to must have cause its just that better incomparison.
I think alot of people forget we used to live in a time where there was almost only 3 viable race picks at one stage for pvp since orc and human were so numerically ahead favorably in terms of racials. the â3rdâ viable race being a tie between dwarf and undead for shaman / priest on horde / alliance.
A lot of factors hold people back, including racials.
The strongest pick (shadowmeld,escape artist) an extra ability, no drawbacks like undead,dwarf putting trinket on a CD.
Tldr
The excuse to ruin the little variation that gives the already missing spice is to remove it because people are min-maxxing.
Not because im against balance but because there are entire specs running rampant with little to no tuning for long time and racial abilities are the least of your worries.
Admit it- youre just frustrated and look for a channel to express it.
It is not about mode and raiting, one is spending a racial skill for breake a root, other spends main offensive ability, or one is have 1 vanish other is 2.
Iâm trying to say, if there is a night elf racial avaliable, you can not pick blood elf. It is like trolling yourself.
We can not take some examples serious like Pikabooâs Tauren Rogue.
Because a world champ doesnt even need shadow dance + trinket + vanish for kill a 1.8 rated guy.
But if we talk about two 2.2 rated guy fights each other⌠You know what i mean. And please do not compare pve and pvp, because its not even close each other. If there is a huge uptime problems in pve, im %100 sure we can not see any tauren warrior anymore. If adds permanently spam roots and knock you back, everyone will start talk about it. Also as a healer, if in M+ dungeon theres a affix sent a pet to attack you all dungeon time and you cant go out of combat, youâll se the difference. IT IS OVERPOWER in pvp. No joke. Just go check pvp ladderboard, there soooo low % different racials.
And im saying very simple thing, remove them for everyone, and let the people play whatever they want. I dont want to pick mandatory races, and the solution is not saying ââplay whatever you want its minorââ no. Extra Vanish is final row talent for rogue so you must spend all your talent tree for extra vanish charge and a racial gives you +1 vanish. Its not normal.
Explain to me why then most high pvp players on alliance were human since wrath all the way to wod?
Every man for himself was so strong that human was let to play with 2 dps trinkets.
Not just at the highest level. Literally for feral and rogue beside NE there is no point playing anything else.
Also for warrior gnome is good. For sp /lock void elf is quite good, probably for lock is even better than human (double dps trinket) depending on what youre playing against.
For the vast majority of classes racial is situational, for rogue/feral is almost mandatory
