Why the hell was human buffed? It needed a nerf and that was it. Why did you double “The Human Spirit”?
Dwarf buffs were needed no complaint there.
Orcs got a nerf unless you are playing a Hunter or Warlock
Tauren got a nerf again, 2.5 mins to get 60% movespeed is hilarious and now serves ZERO purpose at 60 with an epic mount. Why did you remove the 3% extra mounted speed?
Horde Skyborne: Still an overall nerf and now you made is more annoying for skyborne players because unless you put leylines or little tornados outside instances the meta is going to revolve around players getting the buff then logging out and waiting for summon to get the full use out of the buff.
Horde Skyborne should have been changed to get something new completely or just allow them to get the Alliance version of a racial. This is insane and shame of you guys.
Somehow Night Elf hasnt been touched once since launch, and Undead gets a crappy leech that works twice a minute.
What needs to happen: Orc should have kept its 1% crit., Undeads ToTG needs to be reverted to the cata ICD (15 seconds), Tauren should get their hit chance back and have plainsrunning give 3% mountspeed again. Horde Skyborne racial needs to be scrapped and we should just be given the same as the Alliance as there isnt time to make a brand new one. Troll is so godawful that berserking still needs a buff.
I hope to God you guys fix this before name reservations tmr.
Of course but why did they get a compensation buff when everyone else who has a 1% buff variant and did not? Remember 10% Spirit is not bad in Forever, especially as a Caster as you will likely have a Shadow Priest in ur group now.
Yeah im praying we get some emergency hotfix lol. Zirene already confirmed racials wont be touched after launch (Which I think is good) but you need to actually make the racials properly balanced.

But yeah Alliance now go 5/5 for amazing racials while we get left in the dump.
I think overall having a racial balance before the name reservations (when people pick their race/class) is a good thing. The only problem is they proceeded to nerf Horde more and make Alliance even better instead.
No one was asking for 60% plainsriding, it would have been fine if they gave it to us then also kept the mount speed bonus but no they didnt. The whole problem about plainsriding was that it had no use case at 60 when you had an epic mount.
This is just a complete failure. I used to brush off the “Devs play Alliance lol” comments but its starting to get pretty damn obvious thats why they keep getting good racials and good QOL changes (New port, 2 new cities, etc).
I guess I don’t understand why these changes weren’t made a week ago while the Beta was still in process, versus a day before name reservations. That’s why I feel like it was forced – now the only testing will be the first week of launch. Major changes should have been made before now imho.
Alliance has always had better racials in PVE, the one thing horde had going for it was superior PVP racials which we dont even have anymore or were nerfed to hell.
