Human Racial need be better or have more added

In World of Warcraft: The War Within, Humans are getting a new racial ability called No Place Like Home that reduces the cooldown of their Hearthstone and gives it a second charge . This passive trait replaces Diplomacy, which World of Warcraft is removing due to the account-wide reputation system coming in the new expansion. Like who cares how many times you can hearth let set 2 locations and or something this would be meaningful Failure of add meaningful change to racial you strip this race down to next nothing and orcs right be hide use why ally races have so many radials and humans now loss 2nd best and most meaningful one to date add some meat on bone Muman should of mounted faster and 1.2 cast speed or something better or to herbing farmers ect something better or with professions we skill up faster " Jack of all trades "

Humans are in the Top 3 on throughput for most specs in the game, already. They don’t need better racials, they need to be nerfed, just like Dwarves & Tauren.

And I’ll just drop my old but still accurate thread;

The point is specifically that the new racial is lame and thematically dead, the ask isn’t to get combat power out of it but to have a racial that is more interesting and makes sense, and could be minimally useful (which the new one isn’t)

That racial trait replacement is straight up garbage. They must have racked their brains a good one thinking that change up.

Yeah, but human spirit is very strong, so they still have some value.

Willing to trade Beastslaying, at least your racial does something. The fact you consider diplomacy human 2nd best racial is why it should have been nerfed before imo :person_shrugging:

This is not and shouldn’t be a “what about this other race”

Every bad, unfun and thematically terrible racials should be called out, one does not mean the other should be just accepted based on which is better or worse

Better idea: yeet all of them. race is purely a cosmetic choice.

I’m not entirely against that idea either tbh

My point is that a lot of races have racials that aren’t significative or game changing and that we got much worse. Humans have at least a couple strong ones, do all of them need to be that much useful?

Yes. If they gonna be keeping them in the game, all racials should bring something to the table. Otherwise what are we doing here and why are we even bothering with them.

Everyone knows that dwarf is overpowered, and one of their racials is a bonus to archaeology.

Human Rage: 20% damage buff per 20 secs.

Human already brings a lot though. You get an extra stun break, and human spirit scales the best with gear, so usually ends up being highest DPS by the end of the expansion.

Well a 2nd heart for me brings something to the table which you can actually use, it’s just not game changing and won’t be the reason you pick human which they have plenty.

You pick human for will to survive TBH.

But… they are?

Sure they aren’t doing much but there’s plenty of QoL times when having access to a second Hearthstone charge would’ve just been nice to have. Which is what non-combat racials should provide.

We went at length in my other thread about the multitudes of options for travel that makes this second hearthstone quite virtually useless.

Right now it’s just “this racial is bad” and replies are “what about the other race” or “other racial”, like it’s ok to talk about a single racial, there are PLENTY of bad and useless ones out there that need help, doesn’t matter that there are good ones.

Yea the death of diplomacy does make me sad, but they clearly didn’t put any effort into this hearthstone thing.

Pointing out that nearly everyone else’s is bad shows a standard.

Racials arent supposed to be giving the benefit you want them to give.

I am fine with this.
