Future racials and perks

Races are highly underutilized in this game and some others. The races should be different and should have unique reasons for selecting them. Having classes that could only be assigned to some races is one way and these traits are another. On the whole, there changes look good - as the game evolves it is necessary to go back from time to time and see if old aspects are still relevant.

I would like to see race incorporated in other ways as well. Weapons could have a race factor. Dwarves could make better use of dwarven axes for example and get a bonus because their body structure is built for their balance (but no bonus to an axe made by a human). Elves could make special elven bows unique to their stature etc. Armour made by a race for that race might work a little better on that race. Gnomish armour might leave an elf with a bare midriff for example.

 

I like that they're addressing racial changes, especially nerfing the Undead racial. I feel like racials can be a really cool part of the game and should actually make a difference in gameplay. If I play a Human, I should have an advantage over a Night Elf in certain areas and vice versa. Now, the only "game-changing" racials are with undead and Orc kinda. I like how several racials are getting buffed.

 

Awe, right now I'm playing an undead but I don't mind the cooldown being longer. After all, a dead person really ought to be a slow person at heart.

 

I like these changes, and they should have been made a long time ago. Some positive changes could still be made, but we can't get everything positive at once.

 

I am glad that they have finally paid some attention to it. It was much-needed. Of course, they are going to try to improve it as much as they can. It still has more than 10 million subscribers after all.
