I used to be able to at least use bloodmallet to help me determine things, but lately they’ve been out of the loop due to the infinite variables to the new tree system. So, I am wondering what Alliance race would be best for DK and which spec? I solo mostly, and if necessary, I group to achieve different goals/achievements.
I greatly appreciate the feedback! Thank you!
The one you like the most.
And the one you enjoy the most.
mechagnome.
blood : dwarf/firedwarf
frost : worgen for the critty
unholy : idk maybe velf?
tbh all races are so close to one another. you can pick any. dwarf and fire dwarf are " best " for blood cause that activatable is a defensive and sometimes a heal.
If you solo a lot, you might find the Dark Iron Dwarf racial Mole Machine quite useful for getting around. Though, DK’s basically get a free port to Dalaran > Stormwind too. Grab some Engineering wormholes and you are as portable as a Mage.
As for spec… All of them are great for soloing stuff, and all specs are doing their job very well. DPS feels tanky, Blood feels immortal with decent damage that grows exponentially the larger your pull is.
Other than that, pick what you like the look of. It won’t matter from a performance level if you’re not doing cutting edge stuff.
That’s my opinion anyway, as a mostly solo player too.
Dwarf has 2% worgen only 1%.
A Void Elf is better due the passive boost from void shift.
But if you really want that crit then dwarf for sure. Dark iron is interesting for DK because they have extra running speed inside dungeons. Helps DK a lot.
Draenei so you look totally fab, get an extra 23 primary stat, and nobody expects the DK to heal the tank with a piddly heal for a racial.
shows how much i know of alliance races xD
tbh, i really wish horde had accsess to the blues races. we need more goats on our team
Well I’m not really much about the racials mins maxing. But I got a Draenei for Elemental, dwarf for enhancement and kul Tiran for restoration.
I basically poay 3 shaman and roleplay with each of them.
Imo Human, or DI dwarf.
Human—> Passive stats and racial.
DI Dwarf—> Faster movement speed indoors, remove curses, poisons etc to make yourself stronger+ nice free “hearth” to the capital (mole machine thing).
I also think both look better in Transmog, and I think DI Dwarf heritage armor mog looks pretty solid on a DK.

I’m not seeing them in the guide. Would make sense as the Dark Irons would help remove status effects and allow them more speed in dungeons, the Humans and Gnomes can escape a stun, and the Night elves can hide from enemy players.
The small damage and health from Mechagnomes are helpful to warriors and rogues-- doubt there will be mechagnomes with the lockpicking perk possibly useless to them.
Literally doesn’t matter.
You can get +20 and Cutting Edge as any race.
I love my mechagnome
Looks like darth vader
I love pick locks as i have no rogues
As tank, love emergency heal racial
And the mirror image too can be life saving.
You dont need to run or hide when you have those tools
Horde: Tauren, HMT
Alliance: Dwarf, DID, Draenei, LFD
Why? Cause I said so. You know what to do.
Worgen give DKs something Dwarves don’t and its something rather important. A sprint. DK movement is well known for being limited so having Dark Flight makes Worgen DKs quiet important.
Human
Not Human or Kul’Tiran.
Not really. Most DK build have wraith and two deathwalk charge. That’s not really a major bonus it’s just another keybind most people never seem to care about.
