Guns are prominent, Dwarf is the only Alliance Hunter with a relevant racial trait. Well, at least more relevant than the Elf's 5-8 more agility. Draenei pumps out +1% hit, but if you've got a Shaman around you'll already have that bonus.

Night Elf and Draenei gold production rates while dancing on mailboxes are about 300% higher though.

Pyros · 06-29-2009, 02:10 PM

It's not particularly that guns are prominent or not, it's just that if you're dwarf, you get a gun, and it's better than if you were a NE and had another equal weapon. It gives you a better choice that gives better results. Same for trolls and bows.

That said, even though it is an advantage, if you want to play draenei or NE for looks, it's not game breaking at all, even if you plan to play with Ensidia or whatever top 10guild in the world.

Pick the character you like the look of the most and play that one.

Big W Powah! · 06-29-2009, 03:54 PM

Fucking Dwarves look the best of all races in all games.

Long live the motherfucking barrel roll.

You can't got wrong with a race that uses Beer as Holy Water.

I think I just came. I came Jame's tears.

Sooo faction change service incoming. Is the shark officially jumped now?

Araxen · 06-29-2009, 04:38 PM

Nice...i'll be switching to alliance as soon as that is put in. I hope it's just not a race change.

Twobit Whore · 06-29-2009, 04:41 PM

Of course it's just a race change. Will be just like the appearance/gender switch except you will become a whole new race too. Won't be seeing betrayals and orcs in ironforge anytime soon.

I'd have to say the shark was jumped when Pallies & Undead started fighting together.

1 or 2 years ago I could see this generating a massive amount of nerd rage. But now? *yawn*

Aria · 06-29-2009, 06:23 PM

Actually most people will probably welcome it, was just a matter of time. I like the change actually.

Azrayne · 06-29-2009, 06:58 PM

Kind of saw it coming from a mile away. Should have happened years ago when faction balance actually mattered, along with incentives to xfer to the smaller team.

Yeah we could put in some interesting betrayal system, but we'd prefer to just charge you money to switch sides.

Azrayne · 06-30-2009, 06:41 AM

I think the point is that it'd be retarded to have humans and dwarves running around orgrimmar, and there's no real way for them to make magically swapping to another race part of the lore, so they do this as an 'outside the lore' thing, much like gender changes and whatnot.

Who cares, they've been slowly turning this game into 'Diablo in 3d, now with raiding!' ever since it came out, anyone who thinks being attached to your character means anything is blind, or living in the past.
