Remove Racial Abilities

No Shadowmeld, no Berserking, no 1% this no 1% that. They are either op or useless. No inbetween.

Zug zug ..,

No. No more removing.

But its only casualty

Can’t remember which expansion, may have been WoD. You used to get a food or potion that made you immune to stuns and knockbacks for 5min. Similiar in Mop / Legion you used to get the sticky glitter bomb that you could toss onto druids and rogues preventing them from going back into stealth. Those should be made perma consumables on PvP vendors.

No need to remove even more racial flavor just because folks don’t understand that PvP in this RPG is a gimmick and will never be balanced.

Leave my tent and Nose for trouble alone.

That’s bs. Human racials, not op and not useless.
In PvE Shadowmeld is irrelevant, we have a pot now.
In PvP, you have so much more to learn before you can start complaining about racials anyway. So work on that first.

Removing isn’t needed, they could potentially make them more convenient and not so much combat depending like shadowmeld in pvp for classes like rogue and hunter. Maybe a mailbox or repair bot.

Go play Shooters.
This is an MMORPG, while some balance must be maintained perfect balance is impossible and to discribe the hyperfixation on racials better:
Just get your head out of your.. and see how many more problematic mechanics and problems are there which are times bigger than Racial abilities.

I for one value gameplay diversity and variety 300% over ā€œbalanceā€ so no, do not remove racials . If anything make them more significant.

Don’t remove racials just go all in and make them all overpowered so nobody complains.

The worst thing they can do is just leave it as it is now.

Yes.

Race should be cosmetic only.

Tying such a thing combat performance is silly.

According to who ? A anonymous dude on a forum?

According to every single other game.

But for some reason blizzard thought it was a good idea to add combat performance behind race.

Incredibly stupid imo.

Just let people play what they want and not instantly give them an advantage or disadvantage just because they choose a specific race in a RPG game.

Correction. ARPGs have race as cosmetic appearance. RPGs have race as a core mechanic.

I don’t know a single other MMORPG where you can be excluded from or at least have lower performance in end game content based on your race choice..
