For me undead or dwarf.
Which is a shame because my favorite class is druid.
And i just realized this statement works even for Retail. Lol
I used to like Tauren and Undead the best, but I’m not a big fan of how they reworked their skins in Retail.
I tend to play mostly Orc or Human in Classic, unless the class cannot be either, but I’ve also started to like other races, and have some troll, dwarf, nelf and gnome toons also.
In Retail, I only spent the time to grind decent tmog sets for plate, specifically for female belf plate-wearers, so that greatly limits me on what I play in Retail. I have no desire to spend time to grind more tmog sets, so I am stuck with pal, dk, war, if I play Retail

I like night elves because shadowmeld is so great for my playstyle where I like to AFK a lot

Human has always been my fav on Alliance if just for the fact they’re always… pleasing to look at, I guess. They fit well in everything and sometimes it looks cool to be that one basic human in a group of elves and what not lol.
Meanwhile on Horde I love Tauren because they’re the most “wild” race to me that looks the most distinct from any other race in the game, for all their physical features. I’m just chaotic like that haha.

I’m boring and just pick whatever is “BiS” for the class I’m playing, however insignificant the advantage may be.
If I had to pick which class is the best thematically, it’s definitely Tauren because you can actually MOOOOOOOO at people

Not Pandaren, not Drakthyr, not the dumb foxes whose names I didn’t bother to learn. These are mistakes to be undone.
Literally any other race is good.

Is BiS by a mile, the animations make it worth it every time. Now that I play alliance I play human because its them that become the forsaken. So its like being UD but just not yet.

Male UD animations are a bit overrated, IMO. But Female UD Warrior / Rogues are tight, yo.

Troll, though I’m leveling my sham as Tauren now. I gotta say warstomp alone is so much better than everything troll has combined

What i love most of trolls is the priest racials. That damage shield like shamans and hex curse like warlocks.

C’mooon. When people say that the Male UD animations are cool, they’re really saying that the Male UD spellcasting animation is cool. Which admittedly it is, but the rest is aren’t that great.
Troll is BIS aesthetics, that’s why all the other racials are so bad. It wouldn’t be fair otherwise.

Everything male UD is BiS, the whole animation package is just awesome, it does not get better.
