New warrior....orc or maghar?

names gonna be Blademaster, should I stick to the green skin just for the rp value. Or do you think maghar racials make it a better choice. Because it seems like regular orcs are better than maghar from a warriors perspective

racial dont really matter in PVE. The few hundred dps difference wont really matter unless you top .1%.

For pvp though the regular orc racial very good.

for pve, matters little. for pvp, go with an orc for reduced stun

PVE… go Mag’har
PVP… go Orc

if you’re doing both… go Orc b4 Mag’har. Because u need to improve skill if u don’t need Hardness. I noticed 1 Magh’har Warrior did plow over enemies that didn’t need Hardness. Am sure it’s rarely player.

No.

Debatable.

Real Answer: Play what you like in terms of looks.

This is good advice. It’s not like a set of gear that you can just swap, depending on the content you’re jumping into, hour by hour. You’re gonna be looking at your race (and all that entails) constantly. And don’t forget to test out the combat animations! Some races just look silly, once they start swinging…

Well, tbh it’ll make ya weak in PvP and Orc domination for PvP. I have 4 Orc and it’s hunter, warlock, shaman, and un dk. I stop rolling this toon and don’t have times to play b/c busy.

No it won’t.

Cool?

Aesthetically - Mag’Har
Racially - Regular

Unless you want to pvp, go with the scarred up grey mag’har. It looks amazing imho

It could be put this way; either choice would make so little difference that, by the time this question is of consequence, you’ll have already joined the top 1% of players.

And, if you do make it there, and this question simply must be definitively answered, just pay for a race change…if you end up needing one.

Blizzard could scrap all racials in the next xpac; never know! Then it truly won’t matter.

Maghar if you level from 20-120. The heritage armor is freaking amazing.

You can’t get the blademaster ponytail as mag’har, and with the new orc customizations in shadowlands they’ll probly have some cool tats or clan skins like mag’har so it depends on if you wanna bet blizz will do a good job with the orc additions.

Mag’har heritage armor looks sick.

Case closed.

Aesthetically my fav is the scarred up grey Mag’Har. And yeah that Heritage Armor is amazing.

Imo racials dont matter so go for what looks best (Mag’Har)

sorry for kinda necro post. but since the sense in this topic is heavily based on casual player view, I replied to the topic, no offense :slight_smile:
for pve say you’ll play fury ,check the races graph on bloddmallet website which imo difference is so little to mention.
but pvp if you pick regular you’ll have 2 PVP talents (medallion + relentless (hardiness - orc racial) which will make the difference.
Lookswise definitely maghar heritage armor but would you only use 1 armor set?
So I would go with the green dude

Personally… I kinda like the rp aspect of Mag’har then regular orc…

More clan identity and what not… now as far as racials… I belief green skin is better then our randomized buff but I could be wrong.

Yeah Maghar is cool for that reason of clan indentiy. I just wish they added the options to regular orcs instead of adding a weird time alternate universe race… it’s why I can’t play one for too long. Even though they look cool. “Orc Warrior” looks cooler than “Maghar Orc Warrior” too lol, that alone bothers me about allied races.

Orcs will always be green in my head.
