They have eight (8) and they’re all great. Even their ability to switch between dragon and visage form has a group wide health regen component. It seems like everyone is jazzed about this so I won’t say take some away, but at least buff the other races to be comparable. Dracthyr racials absolutely booty blast everyone else and it’s just not fair.

Yes, don’t really nerf their racials in any way, but buff the old races so they are comparably useful.

Is there an official list of their racials? I’m having trouble finding them…
Either way, fully agree with the revamping of racials: The only one with any gameplay significance for me is Escape Artist. I don’t have Engineering, Mana hasn’t meant anything for years for Expansive Mind, and +1% Haste is barely noticeable. Looking at all the toys Dracthyr have built in before getting into their actual kit looks a bit silly in comparison.

Thank you! And wow, those aren’t exactly ignorable racials: Two CC abilities (that interrupt casting), the DH Glide, more Mastery (2.5%/1.8% for DPS and Healer spec respectively) and a bonus chance to find rare materials?
…No, I’m perfectly happy with my…get out of roots and snare button every minute…it’s fine…

I honestly don’t even know why they have the mastery buff. For a single class race, it feels like window dressing.
I wish Nightelves got a “self res” like every… hour that didn’t work in dungeons/raids/arena.
So you die, but then Elune brings you back to life. This would be nice when I die from jumping off cliffs I’m not supposed to before flying.

Like Autorecreation from Zereth Mortis? Sounds cool.

While it is worrying that they have so many high-impact racials, I think part of the reason is the race is the class and vice-versa. We really need to worry when they add other classes to Dracthyr and see a warrior running around in arena with 8 racial abilities.
It’s probably built this way to accommodate the potential addition of other Class options in the future.
Yeah their racials are insane.
Hope they revisit all racials and make them just as insane because its really not fair xD.

Well the thing is Dracthyr and Evoker are the same thing so Idk why they didnt just make the classes default mastery that high kinda just feels like its for show.
“Belves having an AoE interrupt is OP”
Ok… fine… disappointed but I moved on
“New race having TWO AoE interrupts is OK”
Since they can only be evoker its not really that they are racials they are more class abilities.
Calling them racials doesnt really mean much when it can only be one class

Which brings us back around to possibility of them adding more class options like Ion has hinted at being a possibility.
Either there will be a nerf bat incoming when that happens or we are just getting smoke blown up our butts about that actually being a thing.
