it should have only been 1 or 2 added Agility, Stam, Str or Int that’s it. Such a little increase it don’t matter.

I have always said that you shouldn’t objectively lose at the character creation screen. DPS racials don’t have to be perfectly balanced but they should be kidna close and give something to every class. As for pvp racials like the orc stun resist… and this is coming from someone currently enjoying/abusing it… they are dumb.

Agreed. Just dump it altogether.
They said they would do this in the first SOD showcase why act shocked?
You just want to retain human/orc as BIS with this line.
You very clearly don’t have any bias.
They said they would make weapon skill easier to obtain. I assume that meant more gear with weapon skill as a stat. Which would have been fine (but would still have Orc/Human at a bigger advantage than my proposed solution).
They did not say they would flat out give everyone +5 weapon skill, with no trade-off required!
I would like to continue using axes exclusively on my Orc Warrior named Axewipe, if that’s what you mean.
Haven’t even trained maces or swords in SoD.
Lol still can’t believe all the crying about this when blizzard literally told you not to worry about it on launch. It’s your own fault you decided to believe that them saying to not meta chase for weapon skill meant that you should do the exact opposite then cry about it. It’s like asking someone to punch you in the face then complaining to them that they hurt you. Morons lol

They are, in fact, giving out +5 weapon skill as a passive ability that any race can get.
If it were only coming from gear, then I would not have made this post.
Why does something that does not negatively effect you in any way shape or form make you so mad lol
It negatively affects the game that I enjoy playing. That directly affects me.
This is an MMORPG, not Fortnite.

Making the game a mono-faction game isn’t for the greater good of the game.
Next I’ll see you in here asking for same-faction queues for the “greater good of the game.”

How does it negatively effect the game? Because someone else can now enjoy higher dps that won’t effect your own personal DMG at all? What is negative about that? Literally makes weapons less contested too across the board as orc warriors will actually be able to use swords too and every race can use weapons they otherwise wouldn’t of looked at twice.

orc warriors will actually be able to use swords too
This is exactly what I have a problem with. It’s deeply embedded in the lore that Orcs use axes and Humans use swords & maces.
They are not re-writing the entire game’s story to change the lore. They are taking the lazy route with this change.
Not who you’re replying to, but I think destroying faction population balance long-term is pretty damaging.
God dam using lore as a reason is hilarious. Dwarves use maces and axes too, why should they not have racial abilities for that? Is there a lore reason why taurens don’t have mace weapon skills? Or trolls have axe weapon skills?

Everyone dog piled alliance in P1 and if you think they’re all going to reroll to horde because now the horde can use weapons that they can also use you’re out of your mind lol.

The most iconic mace in Classic WoW (Ironfoe) is literally a mace used by a Human to destroy Dwarves.
There are very good lore reasons why those races don’t have natural weapon skill bonuses.
My solution in OP keeps the flavor of the game, while also removing weapon skill bonuses from Orcs and Humans.

By P4-5, you’ll see the shift.
So the dwarves don’t have mace skill because a single human mace exists? Why don’t tauren get mace skill or trolls have axe skill?
