Horde or ally fresh pvp server

Haha, yeah. Regardless of whether I get to play alliance or horde I will have a good time and wish you all the same.

Game is too fun to feel wrong with either choice.

Having played a Warlock on the Alliance I can honestly say that for PvE, the only impactful thing was the extra intel % from playing gnome, human felt fine too though.

PvP wise… it was a little lacking. Half the horde players play undead and that doesn’t factor in everyone playing warriors.

Would say if you’re not looking to min-max PvP, you can play whatever you like, the extra gnome intel or orc pet damage wont affect you much if at all.

If looking to be a PvP mega sweat then you either have to go the Soul Link build and not rely on fear, or play a horde race.

All about how badly you want to sweat in PvP. Even then, if you like Soul Link or not. XD

The only impactful thing was extra intel from gnome? The biggest thing alliance have is the blessing that drops your threat. When I played a lock on Grob, I ALWAYS had to throttle my DPS or I’d wipe the raid. Being able to go full throttle without pulling aggro is an absolutely massive boon. Sure the shaman has tranquil air totem, but good luck finding a shaman for every group. They were always placed in the melee groups for WF, but even that causes severe throttling, it’s almost like a meme unless it’s an actual race like huhu. Horde side we always have to give the tank a decent amount of time to gain threat, and even then it’s still a problem.

Same, I am soooooo looking forward to this lol. I am so tired of retail and this couldn’t come at a better time.

Female Orc has the best casting animations, so pick that.

Was more focusing on race specific limitations, not entirely Alliance as a whole.

but this is a good thing to point out. Salv does make a big difference, especially once you start pumping crit on your lock.

Go alliance so less bg queue times for me and horde doesn’t get locked asap.

Human or Undead if you want to take it through to TBC arena
