If you had to choose between Undead, Goblin, and Orc, which would you choose and why?
I’ve narrowed it down to these 3 but I’m stuck and can’t decide
I’ll start by saying ‘bias’ towards Goblin. I stuck to my Goblin Warlock whole time I was on EU.
Racial helps mobility, Haste is an awesome stat bonus. Animation for Chaos Bolt is awesome as Goblin.
If Demonology, Orc. You get a passive racial that increases pet damage by 1% and an active racial that raises your attack/spell damage which then also benefits your pet.
Vulpera Warlock is great for Affliction, you’re a diseased animal spreading more disease!

Orc.
I don’t like smaller races personally. But if I did have to pick a small race, Goblin would be it.
And eventually you will just get tired of the bad posture and bones of the Undead.
Orcs look good in gear. Especially female Orcs, they basically look like Humans in full gear (which is a good thing, it means good posture & no stretching of gear)

I have one of each of those three and I’d pick Goblin over the Undead and Orc any day.

Orc in honor of one of the biggest Warlocks in the franchise Gul’dan.
His shoulderpads are amazing, love mogging em.

This greatly depends on which transmog sets you have. If you got the MoP Remix Mage set, then it’s obviously a Blood Elf with the heritage armor, as an example. Orc, if you completed the Blackrock mythic raid Warlock transmog set and so on.
Build your characters around a racial theme, otherwise it really doesn’t matter which race your warlock plays.
I love the smaller races so I would probably pick goblin first. However, when it comes to the warlock aesthetic, I feel like the undead race is probably the most fitting.
Blood elf. Other races simply don’t live long enough to understand the intricacies of fel.
They’re like toddlers trying to read a book of quantum physics.

For real though warlock’s boney mogs look silly on male orcs and all goblins.
Female orcs can make it work, but if you’re going to dress like a spirit Halloween decoration just go all in and play a Forsaken.

Every race can make it work, but you have not the right barber- or transmog-options for this.
I want so badly create a Feltotem Totem (Legion) druid and warlock, but not with the current Tauren races.
Nope. Sorry.
Male orcs look ridiculous in cloth and goblins are too small to look anything in anything.
For a gameplay perspective, Orcs. Their cd lines up well with warlock cds, making it easy to macro in. From an aesthetic perspective, that is quite literally a matter of taste.
Just got to get creative.
Look at Gul’dan. He looks great. The problem is that we have no great options for them.
The most notable warlock in the setting was an orc. Arguably orc is to Warlock/Shaman as Human is to Mage/Paladin.
The most notable entrepreneur in the setting is a goblin. Exceptional bank alt race.
As for cloth asthetic, what even is it anymore? Does what I have on look particularly clothy?
I have an orc warlock, he does NOT look ridiculous in cloth, sometimes he is my pathfinder.
My vulpera is a shaman and my goblin is an arms warrior.
Warlock? Are you serious? No doubts undead, a decrepit corpse summoning demons.
I’m passionate about the forsaken lore and the racial is the best for warlocks.

Not as ridiculous as the scrawny barbie and ken dolls called blood elves.
Orc easily.
Goblins, for they are great.

I always go Undead with Locks with the exception of one of mine being Earthen.
Underwater breathing and finding Lock to be a beast for me in Delves.
