When it comes to races like Tauren and Orcs the size of their shoulder armor seems a bit too exaggerated, to me anyway.
I know they’re a huge race but still the shoulder armor is a bit to extreme. All other races fits perfectly.
I’d like to see them scaled down to a fitting size. It’s always bugged me over the years.
Just a thought. Anyone else feel that way?
Size always matters 
size is the only thing that matters
Really? I feel like the shoulder armor is just gigantic on every race. There’s a few pieces that aren’t insanely huge, but they’re more the exception than the rule. I figure it’s just Blizzard’s art style by now.
I grudgingly play male Tauren, but Draenai…wont touch the males.
Orcs dont bother me as much for some reason.
My problem is the mogs look stupid half the time…which is why Im playing mostly female pandas.
I have yet to find a single mog set that doesnt look good or great on a female panda.
I’d post on this character but the website is messed up and I can’t change characters. But I like the size of these shoulders. And so do you, even if you won’t admit it.

HAVE I BEEN LIED TO?
The fact that two threads entitled “mature lover” and “size matter” are floating around together on the forum today is…unnerving to me.
At any rate, Blizzard has always had a thing for gigantic shoulder-pads. It’s a holdover from when the shoulders and helm were the only 3D assets. So they had to make them standout.
hand in your orc card, sir!
One problem I have noticed on my orcs is their shoulder armor seems to hover a little too far off their shoulders.
wut? i haven’t noticed that.
Shoulders and helms were designed large and absurd originally because they were the first pieces you would see on a player, and you could tell what content they had achieved. It was just a glaringly obvious billboard telling you “this warrior charging at you has done AQ40, run”.
They’re still left big because it’s a minimal thing for them to bother changing, and it’s kind of part of the Warcraft art style now.
I forgot about Draenai!
It is weird. Doesn’t happen w/ all of them.
Noticed it with the Honor-bound WF set and a few others that I can’t recall at the moment.
what a handsome orc that is.
Tauren are supposed to be bigger.
Also, if you look at the build of something like an Ox, Bison, Buffalo or just a big ol’ Bull, the shoulders make a bit more sense.
That being said, I would love for ARMOR to not always be big and massive (and floating 5 ft off my shoulders)
i love the shoulder armor best on my male orc or tauren toons. 
My shoulder armor is extreme and I dig it!!! Male orcs and tauren men have very broad shoulders, so naturally, the huge, attractive pauldrons come with it.
Mmmm, maybe in my case they should scale the shoulder armor a bit.
