Orc racial nerf when?

Community General Discussion
101

Cross-faction random battlegrounds were first added in Warlords of Draenor because of Alliance complaints about long Alliance queue times.

This has been our daily reminder on General Discussion regarding this fact. Have a pleasant day.

Don’t worry, if Blizzard doesn’t meet their sales quota by next expansion, you will be seeing racial reworks again so they can make their money back with their cash shop sales of race changes. Similar to what ESO has done every so often.

103

Sure, get rid of immune to polymorph

104

not until human diplomacy racial is nerfed :nerd_face:

I was going to say
 who gets all the reputation-based power boosts first? The hoomans.

No.

Old AT was removed for PVE reasons, but was disgusting to PVP against it; especially when 3/4 of any team were BEs.

Got so bad that I had to go MW monk and use WotC to get my heals out.

107

By “Old AT” do you mean back when they had to Mana Tap 3 times before they could use it?

108

Let’s see


Did that mechanic exist at the same time that monks were rolled out?

No?

Then there is your answer.

109

If it weren’t for racials and class restrictions, Horde would absolutely be “Elves, Elves, and 3 Zandalari”.

110

Then I guess you weren’t really talking about Old AT. :laughing:

111

Old AT. As in “discontinued,” hence OLD.

Nice troll try. :clown_face:

Have a banana.

Orc - Hardiness and Blood Fury
Old EMFH - Passive CC trinket that opened up a trinket slot for another dps trinket that would be stronger than Blood Fury anyways.
That was a good balance. You could choose a stun reduction and a DPS on use ability with Orc or you could open up a trinket slot for another DPS trinket with human.

Nerfed EMFH and people jumped Orc and Blood Elf.
Nerfed Blood Elf and now Orc is the preferred.
Stop nerfing the racials, return the others to their glory, and you will have less of this issue.

But I guess if furries consider it all cosmetic and we just remove everything, we can all share boredom equally
 cosmetically.

Hey that’s me!

114

Exactly lol. Who doesn’t role at least one human just for the rep buff lol? Retail I have a human hunter, and paladin just for the rep grinds lol.

115

I never said most people want racials removed. Anyways.

So you’re telling me elves and humans haven’t been the most popular race options for a long time? Majority of players pick races as a cosmetic choice and not for racials. A minority of people like and play the ugly monsters in this game. Nice human character you got there.

what does this even mean? Is an orc only glorious if they have 20% more dmg off their racial than other races?

Majority of players won’t care if direct power is removed anyways. But it does negatively affect players that want to do competitive content if racials do have an advantage.
