Which Race Would You Add?

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

If Blizzard were to add a new race to each faction in a future Classic expansion, which race would you like to see added to each faction, and why?

What would their racial traits be?
What would their 2 Priest racial spells be?

Void elves for sure

No for real I would probably add in variants of races instead of new races. You would obviously have to grind a new rep to exalted and prove yourself to this new racial variant before unlocking them :wink:

Probably not the answer you’re looking for but…none. I don’t want to see any races or expansions added to Classic because then it would cease being Classic.

Now if we are talking a future where seperate progression servers not connected in anyway to Classic gets created …then that’s a good question. My favorites for each would be…

Alliance : Worgen , Pandarans
Horde: Blood Elves, Goblin

Pretty much it. Everything else is really just a reskin.

Like above, I would like to keep classic as classic.

But on a purely hypothetical note, I would want to see races that were from the original Warcraft trilogy.

Goblins, Blood Elves, Murlocs.

I feel like goblins should have been the first neutral race, not pandas.

I would add the new Tauren race because their charge is neat. I’d also add flying at 60, jewelcrafting and arenas (2,3,5). I would also like lfg/lfr just because I love convenience. Vanilla is too hard and takes too long to have fun.

The only answer is: Murloc

I wouldn’t add “faction” races. It doesn’t align with the lore.

It would be neutral races that then pick a side.

I’d almost argue that there isn’t really a reason why all races aren’t neutral and should be able to join any faction, but that really takes the original faction clash out of the game (Orcs v humans, etc)

Supposedly, the original race lineup was a whopping 20, including Naga. So whatever the others were would be a great start for “neutral races”.

None of the idiotic “allied races” they added in this expac that is for sure. Talk about lazy and uninspired.

Ogres were originally supposed to be in classic and I’d be ok with them finally getting the nod. I’ve wanted to play a 2 headed ogre mage for as long as I can remember.

High Elves for the Alliance. Goblins for the Horde. Gonna try and balance them but these are rough outlines. Now of course I don’t want changes but if Classic+ realms were to happen, it’d be neat to have these races.

Goblins: Starting Zone Tirisfal (Yeah I know, but it’s balance reasons. It makes more sense than Thunder Bluff and we don’t want 3 races to start in one zone so Durotar is out.)

Classes: Warrior, Shaman, Mage, Warlock, Rogue

Best Deals Anywhere: All items are sold at a discount above your current discount range.

Time is Money Friend: Goblins have 5% decrease on all cooldowns.

Dagger Specialization: Dagger skill increased by 5.

Goblin Grenade: Deal 10-20 fire damage in a 5 yard radius. 3 Minute Cooldown. (I guess this would scale up a bit but I dunno how much. might be too weak as is.)

High Elves: Starting Zone, Elwynn Forest.

Classes: Paladin, Priest, Warrior, Hunter, Mage

Blessed By The Light: Increases Healing done by spells and effects by up to 20.

Meditation: Sleep for 6 seconds and rapidly increase health and mana regeneration. Any damage will break this effect. (4 minute cooldown.)

Heightened Senses: All resistances increased by 5.

Undead Slaying: Damage dealt versus Undead increased by 5%.

Edit: Oh yeah Priest racials

At 10: Starshards like Nelves

At 20: Beam of Light: Increases healing done to friendly target by 5%. Lasts 12 seconds. 5 minute cooldown.

I don’t really care about new races being added, but if I had to pick on I would pick Goblins as a neutral race.

Well, Blood Elves for the Horde and Dranaei for the Alliance. Hmm. Worgen would make a comeback, too, especially if they can be introduced without having Cataclysm. On the Horde side, I would leave the goblins as a neutral race, and instead bring in Centaurs.

And if we talk Allied races, well, the only ones I’ve seen so far that I care about are the Nightborne and the Kul’tiran humans. Sure, the shiny space goats, the emo blood elves, the goth dwarves, blinged out trolls, and alt-u orcs are nice and all, but I just can’t bring myself to care about them.

Instead of new races, though, I’d rather add in new classes, and class options, allowing for new ranges of customization.

Naga with water based priest abilities that target neptune.
Swimming faster
The other depends if your male or female
If your male your physically stronger so passive strength, if your female passively more int.
Perhaps the racial ability will be dive that hides in water, kinda like stealth because everyone can dive in water until you emerge.
