Pandaren are rarest than Vulpera. Why people dont much like pandas

Pandaren are awesome.

They could really use an overhaul though; they’re showing their age in terms of models and textures and options.

They are also still missing their heritage armor (although there’s some awesome stuff out there already).

Hey Blizz: Combine those two things. Hint hint.

:point_up_2: This.

Also, for Pandaren it’s pretty much everything. They have the best melee stance combat animations, good emotes overall, but also an incredible lore, culture, style of buildings, the list goes on. And of course, caramel dansen.

Just waiting on a Pandaren heritage now. PLEASE. Blizzard, do not ruin Pandaren heritage like how you ruined the Draenei one with the helmets removing/hiding horns hello??

When I started playing, only Humans & Dwarves could be Alliance Paladins.
I’ve never been partial to Dwarf characters so it had to be Human.

I have a couple mains I’ve had over the years. My current main is a gnome, and it’s because I love short characters. Often their hitbox is smaller too. Also, all clothes look good on them, the bulky greaves are more form fitting with outfits, and the weapons are nice and smol.

My Vulpera because I absolutely adored Meera. She sings silly songs, which I have a penchant for. I was raised on Veggie Tales, so seriously, stuff similar to Silly Songs with Larry makes me laugh to no end. She always wears a hood. And the shoes are replaced with paw pads with toe beans. So cute!

My Void Elf was my first character. She was originally a human when I joined in BFA with the intention of eventually race changing her to a Velf. Reason being I really wanted to join Horde so I could play a Blood Elf, but my friends were already established on Alliance and also threatened me with death if I made a gnome. So they helped me farm rep for void elves.

I choose my race at first cuz its height.
I want my character to looks like me in RL.
Im 193 cm and only Night Elf fit this - tall and lean.
Maybe WoW should make some character sizes just like in SWTOR.
I like humans but they are too short and muscular.
We need something like thin Kul-Tirans NPCs.
Or maybe to be able to make our characters different sizes like in SWTOR.

My guild decided, we would start playing World of Warcraft on the Horde side. I wanted to be a warlock, at the only two races that could be Warlocks at the time were orcs and undead. I thought the Undead matched the class fantasy better than Orc, so I choose Undead.

I’ve been Pandaren since they became available to play - can’t really say why - I just love them for some reason.

Back then I caught a lot of hatred and abuse for that choice though - got spat on regularly by random strangers and generally treated badly… didn’t really bother me in the slightest.

Panda for life :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Because i like cars and i like to race.
Im a night elf.

Humans can fit most things thematically and the smaller races have some odd camera angles that start to bother me after a while.

armor looks the best

Because Gnomes are cool! All other races pale in comparison.
I don’t mind Void Elves either. I don’t play Horde so I couldn’t be a High Elf, I mean a Blood Elf…lol.

The NECK SEAM!!

Yes, Pandaren need some work. The difference in quality between the other races and Pandaren is stark.

I bet most of those vulpera are mine

If it doesn’t look good, it can get in the bin.

That means Humans, Void Elves, Blood Elves, female Night Elves, female Draenei and maybe female Orcs are the only options (although I don’t play Horde). Everything else has nasty texture stretching or squishing which just looks borked and lazy.

Edit: By extension, Dracthyr visage form is included in my list of acceptable options!

I prefer the shorter races myself. Makes it easier to see what’s going on!
