I’ll be making a Highmountain Tauren. I really like Bull Rush as a racial for tanks. They also take reduced damage.

Because of ā€œMake Camp.ā€

Not all of the best racials in-game are combat-based ones!

Mechagnome and it’s not even close. Defensive active, a cheat death, and a massive stat trinket.

Mechagnome is busted, it’s just ugly.

I get it. They’re just busted from a racial stand point. Issue is the same as dracthyr though, restricted mogs.

Because you are, effectively, adding cake on cake if you double up on the effects. I’m not sure how they stack up but the thing to remember about Brewmaster Monks is that they are quite an ā€œaggressiveā€ type of tank, where a lot of their value comes from their AoE in Dungeon settings whilst during raid they provide a different type of passive mitigation that pairs up well with tanks that have more upfront mitigations.

In a raid setting, the Kul’Tiran passive is probably better … but not comparable because of the sheer amount of damage that you take during a boss fight when progressing said boss. At which point mechanically there’s other options that are ā€œbetterā€ (they are different but some stuff is more commonly better options, but all racials will help in some way or another).


This is why Vulperans have the best racial in the game though. Because regardless of the fight you are in, the quality of life improvement of Make Camp makes any and all of your gameplay more than worth it!

Ergo, best racial.

Most people don’t pick races based off of racials, and when people do, they do it because they want a specific racial. Not just ā€˜in-general best-all-around’ racials. Of which Mechagnomes without a shadow of a doubt have the best in-general best-all-around racial from a performance perspective.

I ended up settling on Tauren for War Stomp.

I admit there were some times I used the haymaker on a mob in a delve or w/e and it was quite humorous!

Highmountain Tauren, bar none.

The damage reduction applies to each separate tick of stagger.

Kul Tiran’s ā€œself-healingā€ doesn’t stack.
