I'm gonna roll a dwarf paladin

but am unsure which to go with.
dark-irons have the mole machine racial, which is pretty good… BUT, regular dwarves have the archaeology racial, which is pretty-darn good too… man, this is a tough choice to make.

I would go with the regular dwarfs because paladins have many blue/gold and red/gold armor sets and i think they look better on them. Also, you get one of the coolest mounts in the game, the dawnforge ram.
And i think is kinda hard do to a cool replay/backstory with a dark iron one. And paladin lacks black armor.

You have to go with the regular dwarf because Fogerty had it right with:

pretty sure i get both the rams if i pick either of them though.

I don’t know both paladin mounts for dwarves are very cool…

No just the one for the type of dwarf you pick.

Dwarves also get heritage armor

Why be a dwarf when the original paladin are humans

Both have heritage armor…

Timeline wise Draenei or Zandalari are the first paladins depending on your criteria.

Go bronzebeard. They have far more customizations.

I vote for female Dark Iron because you’ll be pretty unique. :wink:

huh… last time i tried to roll a darkiron (tried, i could’nt commit at the time) i was able to pick between’em.

like how when on my draenei, i could ride the old human/dwarf paladin horse.

Oh, i forget about that. I’m think you need to at least create one of each at least once. Either way i still go with regular ones.

Really?

I’ll have to double check on that. Last I looked I couldn’t.

Dark Iron look cooler, that’s my pick.

If I played alliance it would be full dark iron dwarf

Thanks for the correction.

Gold, gold, gold…sounds like something a fortunate son would think about.

It’s best to stick to the down-to-(below)-earth Iron Forge. No other playable race is a hawt: we live in a freakin’ volcano. Also, Darkforge Ram is obviously superior to the that gawdy Dawnforge hunk-of-gold.

Actually, real dwarves of any tribe ride the OG non-armored Brewfest Ram because it’s the only mount that hold its liquor!

I went Dark Iron because of smoldering beards > regular beards.

You mean you want to roll a short Paladin.
It doesn’t matter what races on retail

Thankfully, these days there is one valid case for choosing a standard dwarf: if you want to look like a Wildhammer, which is indeed awesome:

Man, statements like this make me wish the class names adapted to race, because what you said feels wrong even though it’s technically true.
