What allied race do you want?

If you can choose allied races for the Alliance and the Horde, what will you choose?


Here are mine:

  • Broken and Ogre or Mok’nathal
  • Mogu and Taunka
  • Jinyu and Gilgoblins
  • Arrakoa and Saberon

What will yours be?

The Broken are the only race I feel that’s long over due since Vanilla/BC. How they havene’t been added in any iteration yet is beyond me.

Saberon, always liked cat people.
Mantid, always liked mantis people.
Edit: Saurok, which I couldn’t place the name for some reason. I like lizardfolk. Not sethrak though as a snake with limbs is just beyond weird to me.

That’s just the three I’ve used in D&D, and as someone who is no longer actively doing tabletop I’d be more than happy with them here.

Sethrak PLEASE. Arrakoa are a close second, and anything feline comes in third.

MURLOC. That is the only race that matters. I have said it many times. If they make Murlocs a playable race I will delete everything and level everything as a murloc. Does not matter what faction they are on. I will be a Murloc Purist. And they have a perfect place for them to come from and to justify every class available for them… AZMERLOTH!

May the Mrrgl be with you.

Based on my own personal preferences and in alphabetical order for each faction:

Horde

Ogre :cut_of_meat::japanese_ogre:
Kelfin :japanese_goblin::trident:
Saberon :cut_of_meat::tiger2:
San’layn :wine_glass::bat:
Saurok :meat_on_bone::crocodile:
Taunka :snowman_with_snow::ox:

Alliance

Ankoan :shark:
Arakkoa :rice_cracker::parrot:
Furbolg :honey_pot::bear:
Jinyu :dolphin:

Neutral

Ethereal :moneybag::ghost:
Sethrak :snake:
Tuskarr :fishing_pole_and_fish::seal:

Need to think of more Alliance races to be paired with my wanted Horde races, but that is all I can think of off the top of my head for now.

Ogres are a great one, and Id say give mages the option for 2 heads. Aside from that Arrakoa, Centaur, Tuskarr, Dryads/Keepers, Murlocks, and Firbolgs are all easy options. Id say Ogres and Centaur for the horde, Dryads and Furbolgs for alliance. The rest can be more neutral races if they want because we honestly should have more of those.

Older style dragon-kin and the larger bodies should be an option for dracthyr as well.

for the longest time, i wanted san’layn… since they gaved us white skin red eyes customization i doubt it will ever happen, i can only hope for a dps blood based spec in the future. (and no, blood dk does not count, and also is boring as hell)

which leaves me to the other race that i want that i doubt a lot it will ever become playable… Nathrezim

Vrykul for the Alliance. Ogres for the Horde.

Both sides get a giant race.

I would rather add core races that don’t need tedious grinds to unlock, like every new race before and after BfA. Then I’d give the Horde some kind of new bestial alien race akin to saberon and give the Alliance a new “pretty” alien race akin to satyrs, draenei, or sylvar, or vice-versa because people have been begging for another Alliance beast race now that it having too many human-like races is apparently a problem.

I have a pretty big list.

Horde v Alliance

Ogre v Mogu

Man’ari v High Elf

Fel Blood elf and San’layn v Broken

Saurok v Jinyu and Ankoan

Saberon v Arrakoa

Gnoll v Furbolg

Naga v Ethereal

You take that back!

I want Tuskar and Murloc.

And a Vulpera named UwU.

I don’t want any more allied races - they were an experiment that need not be repeated again, at least not in its current form.

The developers move egregiously slow when it comes to basic model improvements, additional customization, etc, so I think they need to handle what’s on their plate before they make more work for themselves.

Tuskar, Ogre, Tortollan are my top 3.

I really, really want a new creature race for Alliance. All we really have are Worgen.
