I’m wanting to roll a priest for ranged dps and for healing in raids and groups. Is there a best alliance race for priest class. I never played one before
“Best” as in optimal racials? Maybe void elf for the no knockback, but I’m not sure.
“Best” as in lore/theme? I think there’s multiple good ones.
Humans culture is huge on light. Same with draenei and especially lightforged. If you go night elf there’s the priest/ess of Elune thing.
I checked Wowhead, and it gives Night elf as a recommendation for each spec. I did check Bloodmallet for Shadow, and they apparently show Human as the highest DPS in Patchwerk fights?

night elf. best race is elf. no wait its draenei.
Nightelf has meld for anti-wipe
And a haste racial whose name i cant remember
Goblins… cuz reasons!!
I would avoid void elf.
Void elf using holy magic is weird, and void form means you cant see the cool visual proc of the void elf racial.
Humans however are a great choice thematically
Undead for pun names
Blood Elf for slender build for cloth xmogs
I’m teetering between night elf for the meld ability and the worgen for the run buff plus werewolf and the racial calm
No as Vulpera are on Horde time to change Faction.
Follow the call of the werewolf, it shall lead you true (and Worgen are fun)
Undead, you get to eat people.
I like Worgen female for shadow priest, they just look so wickedly cool in shadow form
If you’re Horde, the answer is “tauren.”
If you’re Alliance, the answer is “Dark Iron”.
You’re welcome.
Void Elf if you like the non cast interruption.
Human just looks nice thematically and has good performance.
(Noting Race differences at most are a 1.5% difference between the highest and lowest, if you lean towards ones play what you like even if it’s the lowest simming).
Draenei for the obviously cultured choice.
Man, not one mention of Troll.
