Tauren Classes

So, I’m curious what other class(es) would you say fit the tauren (regular, not the highmountain). I have a shaman, druid, and paladin. first two are self-explanatory, but i also have the paladin because i love the lore of the Sunwalkers and felt it fit them quite well.

I’m asking cause I kinda want to make one more tauren, and just wanna know what is a good option(s)

Warlock doesn’t fit at all, but it looks cool.

Warrior fits them pretty well too. Tauren warrior charging at you with 2 giant totem weapons? That’d be scary.

Beast Master Hunter would work too. Tauren are very in tune with nature and BM hunters work with animal companions.

Druid, Shaman, Hunter, Warrior.

Sunwalker Tauren post-Cata: Paladin or Priest

Mage and Warlock are probably the least Tauren-y.

Even Monk fits in better than those do.

Tauren Rogue, if you want to be a pirate. There’s been Tauren pirates.

If only we could wield totems, or just take the one on the heritage armor off our back to smack people around XD

Tauren who complete the Baine questline in Dragonflight unlock a totem weapon exclusive to Tauren and Highmountain Tauren. It’s a 2h Mace.

This is the best answer considering when they were introduced in WC3 they were the top tier melee unit

Fits fine if you call yourself a Grimtotem. They get up to all kinds of nefarious shenanigans.

warrior and hunter are particularly fitting

Weirdly enough I think Highmountain Tauren fit in better than regular Tauren warlocks, because we’ve seen the Feltotem tribe.

It was once the Bloodtotem tribe, but they then pledged themselves to the Legion.

Honestly would’ve made sense to have HM Warlocks first, then have them train regular Tauren warlocks.

The precedent was there.

If only you could do this but it’s limited to main hand despite being a two hander. They really need more totem weapons but yeah tauren warrior’s fit real well as they’re big and powerful and could crush their foe’s skull like it was a grape under hoof

Ah man. It’s mainhand only? Well, I guess I could still use it. My paladin is a ret one and she’s using the chieftain axe as a transmog

REALLY!? That’s so dumb.

It works wonderfully with tauren ret paladins

Yeah imagine my surprise thinking I’d get to club people with two totems only to find the totem doesn’t exist in off hand selection. So I left using it to my retribution tauren paladin for a time

Warrior beyond any reasonable shadow of a doubt is like the first thing that comes to mind with tauren; doesn’t hurt that their heritage armor comes with a 2 handed mace.

Warrior. Like the tauren chieftain hero in wc3.
