Great video! Just one hangup: Worgen with "Arathi ears" makes total sense lore-wise, as it's just pointy ears from the arathi's mixed human-evlen heritage. It's 100% plausible for your character to be a Gilnean half-elf who got afflicted with the worgen curse.
Darkflight used to stack because I remember in the days of Cata, it would stack with my hunters Aspect of the Cheetah, but at some point down the line they removed that. I guess someone wanted to bring it back again. I'm not sure when it was removed, I just remember my deep disappointment since I used to stack them and run past my friends at breakneck speeds while I was shrunken and turned into a skeleton due to drinking Noggenfogger elixir. It would often confuse my friends to see something so small fly past, (Back in the days before cross servers were a thing, so if you knew where your friends hung out, you could always find them without being in a group.) so I kept doing it because their reactions to something so simple was pretty great.

Not really a racial but ever since the Dracthyr came out I've been dreaming of Demon Hunters getting access to self propelled skyriding like the Dracthyr. They have wings. Let them fly!
We need more flavorful racials like Vulpera, Zandalari or Kul Tirans.. I love theirs so much, and they’re so much more interesting than defensive/offensive raciaps that warp top meta around.
Night Elf shadowmeld being one of the most oppressively good racials, but HOLY SHIT 1 MIN OFF LIGHT OF THE NARUU?! I, for one, welcome our new Draenei overlords.
I hate the Haymaker racial for Kul Tirans, it favours some classes far more than others, has no use in most raid boss fights, and if we are ever given the opportunity to choose to be bulky, lean or skinny Kul Tirans, starts to looks janky. 'Weigh Anchor' where you throw an anchor at a target location, causing aoe physical damage and roots nearby enemies for X seconds would be more thematically and visually fun than a simple knockback. It would also achieve a similar goal to 'Haymaker'.
something they should do for wargen is make their racial runnning wild able to use in dungeons and raids /instances also maybe give them a redesign that looks more bad ass
Darkflight used to stack when they originally came out, they removed it because of the abuse it had in Warsong Gulch with cheetah form, dash, and darkflight which made you faster than mounts. About time they brought it back, it was the only reason I rolled a worgen
Love the buffs and reworks to Zandalari. Making the shadow damage/heal buff stronger is fun for my Unholy DK and the channelled regen healing through damage ticks is amazing.
Some of these changes are great, and I'm sure they will convince a few people to diversify their race choices. However... for M+ and certain raids I still don't think any races can compete with Dwarf and Dark Iron Dwarf. Having an ability that removes all bleeds, poisons, diseases, curses and magic effects whilst reducing your damage taken (or increasing your primary stat for DID) is just too good. It has saved me from dying many times in higher keys and depending on the dungeon/raid boss it allows you to outright ignore certain mechanics and make life easier for the rest of your group. Having a Bleed cleanse as a tank specifically can stop you from taking many millions of extra damage, and can even make it so you don't need to tank swap as often in raids.
i main a void elf warlock.. i always forget my passive exists because my transmog basically hides the appearance (my mog is very void purple)... i kinda wish it'd give a bit of a glow off your character like maybe a circle on the floor or swirls of void light around your character.. something to make it stand out a bit more
Agreed- it is some very dumb flavor. If you want to test out the different effects you'll be waiting ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY HOURS to be able to change it again. WHY
@@KommisarFuklawbecause zandalari is the only class that can change its racial buffs, no other race can, the 7 day cooldown is fine when you combine it with the looting gold buffs they get and everything, I may look at playing one myself, usually just play human or night elf though lol
@@7755fgh maybe if the buffs were powerful the lock out would prevent some abuse scenario. As it is, 5 days is crazy. If you play one you will understand the silliness.
They need to remove offensive/defensive racials COMPLETELY! Just make them interesting flavor/convenient stuff, not something that’s necessary for content.
as a voidelf mage, this is making me happy! also, i wish my warlock was voidelf now, too. looks like a neat movementskill, even though the CD is still quite long
I wish they'd revert the undead recial to be something you could pre-cast, even if it was a purely PVE change that didn't apply in pvp if it was a balance concern.
If they're leaving meld as powerful as it is, I can live with that, but they need some more aggressive tuning.. Also, the proc racials getting increased seems good, but if they're still locked at the same rough PPM values (this is still a thing right?) you'll hit a cap faster then get no procs for some time. Personally I hate proc per minute design. It obfuscates the power of items greatly. You get an item with a damage proc and think it seems good, only for it to roughly cap at some number you can't see. Then they often end up being worse than raw stats as a result. Just balance around a more random proc chance.
would be really cool if worgens had a 2 separate abilities in ich form, so in worgen form he could leap and in human form he could shotgun infront of him with disorient (shared cooldown ofc)
Every race almost needs an overhaul on their racials. Racial abilities should be way more unique and useful instead of them trying to make them fair and balanced. That Void elf racial honesty needs to function as a blink. Worgens running wild ability should be Instacast and be able to be used indoors as well.
Goblins should get a buff on either the rocket damage or the rocket launch jump and get rid of the one of the two cuz button bloat is a huge problem in this game already.
I didn't consider that kimbul might not be affected by talents. On assassination rogue a lot of the talents just say your bleed effects, not your rogue bleed effects or whatever. I'd think that zandalari especially with this increased proc chance would be one of the best rogues, because of the talent that increases the damage you deal for each bleed effect by 2%, plus all their other talents that increase bleed damage.
I'm just glad they are doing something about the under repped races. They don't need to topple everything we know abouut racials, but at least make it feel a bit better to play some of these non meta races
I really wish Wogen could fight in their human forms. I'm sure many of us can admit that we may not RP but ... in our heads with our characters to like to RP them the way we wanna see them and sometimse game mechs stop that. If the Dracthyr can fight without changing so can the Worgen and they can choose when to give in to their curse.
One cool racial for Worgen would have been extra passive for druids and rogue = in stealth Worgen is always in all fours and move the ground mount speed but speed increase skills do not activate in stealth. And Worgen cat form + bear form have new looks: Cat is a Worgen but more furious looking and moves on 2 feet (unless stealth) and bear form should use the same skeleton and shape as the mage tower bear reward skin but look like very bulky Worgen.
I feel like these racial abilities were much more impactful during vanilla. Because back, then every little bit counted for more. Whether that was stats or a little bit extra armor or what have you. By today’s standards, these seem like they hardly even matter or even equate.
As a Blood DK Blood elf racial is amazing. You can use it pre pull s.th. you have your first death strike much earlier available than other races. Also helps pooling Runic Power between pulls or when you get forced off of the boss.
Still waiting for thee Worgen For for Worgen Druids, they just do all the cat form stuff in their normal form, like we used to have that cool Leopard man Form Back in WoD! 5% Vers was not bad either :D
Rugged tenacity is insanely powerful because it applies AFTER all other damage reductions so as you take 100k damage from an attack but you have a 30% reduction from a cd then you take 70k but now reduced by 65% from armor now you take only 24.5k damage and now you block about 2k from bramble if you're a bear tank plus that 3400 which can go higher but with this number you turn a 100k damage attack into a 19k damage attack or less ..you get my point ...2000+3400= 5400..my bear for example has 8k total reduction this way as thers also a trinket that provides raw damage reduction so stacking all 8k out of the 24.5k damage after % means I'll only take 16k damage ..meaning it represents 30% of damage taken after the % apply and its a god dam passive...raw damage taken reductions are absolutely overpowered if paired woth a tank that has good armor like bear and their own raw damage reduction passives to stack up...its insanely op ..
wargen is my favorite race i love the lore of gilneas but i had expected them to get a redesign a while ago because they look like shit like why cant worgens look like king gilneas when he transforms to a werewolf
The only thing a Worgen need, is a tail! Gosh, I love the Worgen, but it sucks that they have. no. tail. It looks so dumb and like a french bulldog at this point, especially with those elv like ears.
Im going to miss the current Zandalari Regeneratin'. I thought it was perfectly viable even with DOT effects. 50% nerf is a bit ridiculous to me. Maybe a 35% or 40% nerf would be good instead. Blizzard just throws numbers around though.
Yeah, that seems like a nerf for highmountain taurens then, from 1% of millions of damage to 3400...? I think they should have given us a skilltree for each race. So that it is more significant bonuses. 2 min CD for a skill that lasts 5 seconds and 20% heal is too little. Rarely anyone using the radials..
They should revamp the nerf on the Humans racial. I mean the two time use heartstone is just so bad compared to all the other races. I rather see a defensive buff or offensive buff or anything useful between.
Personally The only racial ability I have ever used on any of my charcters was the light forged dranie ability. I never use the human, forsaken or any other ones because when the opportunity comes for you to actually need it its blocked out for use. I find this especially so with my humans its suppose to be available for me to get out of being stunned or whatever but its always blacked out when needed so its pointless really. Was told they were replacing it with something more useful but we actually got a double hearth as well as just leaving us with a useless ability.
Worgen should have a leap. The movement speed thing was nerfed in Cata to not stack because Blizzard is stupid and didn't want the alliance to have anything fun.
Blizzard seems to hate blood elves. Arcane Torrent was ruined when they removed the interrupt effect. The current spell ability is awful and totally useless and on top of that it has a 2 min cooldown. The racial abilities from other races are OP compared to Arcane Torrent. This should be addressed as totally unfair to people who play blood elves. Blizzard should update Arcane Torrent to interrupt again.
Thanks for the timestamps in this 30 min video, made navigating very easy and quick. Glad I didnt have to jump through the video for the one single thing that interested me. But hey some people may enjoy hearing someone yap for 30 mins for barely any relevant info!
I think Worgen could use a Heroic leap like ability. You see them do it all the time in Gilnean content leaping rooftops and such.
They could use a tail
@Arbutusunedo you're not wrong, though werewolf lore it's kinda hit or miss on tails depending where you get it from. Some do some don't.
Yep, although maybe less like heroic leap and more like fel rush. Lunge forward, slashing as you go, applying a bleed to everyone in your path.

They also have holes in them-
15:35 to be honest i liked the subtle cast of void rift. The nice thing when using it for pvp, the other player couldn't tell that you cast it.
They should give nightborn a personal magic dispel, like aren't they supposed to be masters of the arcane?
We need more flavorful racials like Vulpera, Zandalari or Kul Tirans.. I love theirs so much, and they’re so much more interesting than defensive/offensive raciaps that warp top meta around.
Night Elf shadowmeld being one of the most oppressively good racials, but HOLY SHIT 1 MIN OFF LIGHT OF THE NARUU?! I, for one, welcome our new Draenei overlords.
I hate the Haymaker racial for Kul Tirans, it favours some classes far more than others, has no use in most raid boss fights, and if we are ever given the opportunity to choose to be bulky, lean or skinny Kul Tirans, starts to looks janky. 'Weigh Anchor' where you throw an anchor at a target location, causing aoe physical damage and roots nearby enemies for X seconds would be more thematically and visually fun than a simple knockback. It would also achieve a similar goal to 'Haymaker'.
Nah, funny punch is the best racial in the game
something they should do for wargen is make their racial runnning wild able to use in dungeons and raids /instances also maybe give them a redesign that looks more bad ass
Darkflight used to stack when they originally came out, they removed it because of the abuse it had in Warsong Gulch with cheetah form, dash, and darkflight which made you faster than mounts. About time they brought it back, it was the only reason I rolled a worgen
I need the dragon guards on two legs with no wings from dragon flight as a race. The big boys.
Currently, only running Vulpera characters.
Love the buffs and reworks to Zandalari. Making the shadow damage/heal buff stronger is fun for my Unholy DK and the channelled regen healing through damage ticks is amazing.
Some of these changes are great, and I'm sure they will convince a few people to diversify their race choices. However... for M+ and certain raids I still don't think any races can compete with Dwarf and Dark Iron Dwarf. Having an ability that removes all bleeds, poisons, diseases, curses and magic effects whilst reducing your damage taken (or increasing your primary stat for DID) is just too good. It has saved me from dying many times in higher keys and depending on the dungeon/raid boss it allows you to outright ignore certain mechanics and make life easier for the rest of your group. Having a Bleed cleanse as a tank specifically can stop you from taking many millions of extra damage, and can even make it so you don't need to tank swap as often in raids.
Would love to see more Kul Tirans customizations. I doubt we’d ever see it, but skinny Kul Tirans would be amazing
i main a void elf warlock.. i always forget my passive exists because my transmog basically hides the appearance (my mog is very void purple)... i kinda wish it'd give a bit of a glow off your character like maybe a circle on the floor or swirls of void light around your character.. something to make it stand out a bit more
The 5 day CD of the Zandalari Trolls needs to be instant cast when out of combat... this racial makes no sense like a lot others...
Agreed- it is some very dumb flavor. If you want to test out the different effects you'll be waiting ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY HOURS to be able to change it again. WHY
@@KommisarFuklawbecause zandalari is the only class that can change its racial buffs, no other race can, the 7 day cooldown is fine when you combine it with the looting gold buffs they get and everything, I may look at playing one myself, usually just play human or night elf though lol
@@7755fgh maybe if the buffs were powerful the lock out would prevent some abuse scenario. As it is, 5 days is crazy. If you play one you will understand the silliness.
@ I can play one I have a few characters of them but stick with my human
Did I miss something or are the no changes to the Blood Elves racials? 😢
They need to remove offensive/defensive racials COMPLETELY! Just make them interesting flavor/convenient stuff, not something that’s necessary for content.
as a voidelf mage, this is making me happy! also, i wish my warlock was voidelf now, too. looks like a neat movementskill, even though the CD is still quite long
i just want more female pandaren hairs that dont look ugly as fuck
I wish they'd revert the undead recial to be something you could pre-cast, even if it was a purely PVE change that didn't apply in pvp if it was a balance concern.
If they're leaving meld as powerful as it is, I can live with that, but they need some more aggressive tuning.. Also, the proc racials getting increased seems good, but if they're still locked at the same rough PPM values (this is still a thing right?) you'll hit a cap faster then get no procs for some time.
Personally I hate proc per minute design. It obfuscates the power of items greatly. You get an item with a damage proc and think it seems good, only for it to roughly cap at some number you can't see. Then they often end up being worse than raw stats as a result. Just balance around a more random proc chance.
would be really cool if worgens had a 2 separate abilities in ich form, so in worgen form he could leap and in human form he could shotgun infront of him with disorient (shared cooldown ofc)
9:31 this has to be thee coolest orc ive seen in a while
Should let drakthyr actually choose visage.
No undead racial buff is wild
Every race almost needs an overhaul on their racials. Racial abilities should be way more unique and useful instead of them trying to make them fair and balanced. That Void elf racial honesty needs to function as a blink. Worgens running wild ability should be Instacast and be able to be used indoors as well.
So no changes to Blood Elves ?
Goblin rocket should do more damage;-;
Goblins should get a buff on either the rocket damage or the rocket launch jump and get rid of the one of the two cuz button bloat is a huge problem in this game already.
I didn't consider that kimbul might not be affected by talents. On assassination rogue a lot of the talents just say your bleed effects, not your rogue bleed effects or whatever. I'd think that zandalari especially with this increased proc chance would be one of the best rogues, because of the talent that increases the damage you deal for each bleed effect by 2%, plus all their other talents that increase bleed damage.
Interesting ones to change, but more importantly… When do we get Pandaren Paladins and Druids :D
Still gonna play Human and only Human, just give me Human shamans and druids already
I'm just glad they are doing something about the under repped races. They don't need to topple everything we know abouut racials, but at least make it feel a bit better to play some of these non meta races
I really wish Wogen could fight in their human forms.
I'm sure many of us can admit that we may not RP but ... in our heads with our characters to like to RP them the way we wanna see them and sometimse game mechs stop that.
If the Dracthyr can fight without changing so can the Worgen and they can choose when to give in to their curse.
One cool racial for Worgen would have been extra passive for druids and rogue = in stealth Worgen is always in all fours and move the ground mount speed but speed increase skills do not activate in stealth. And Worgen cat form + bear form have new looks: Cat is a Worgen but more furious looking and moves on 2 feet (unless stealth) and bear form should use the same skeleton and shape as the mage tower bear reward skin but look like very bulky Worgen.
I feel like these racial abilities were much more impactful during vanilla. Because back, then every little bit counted for more. Whether that was stats or a little bit extra armor or what have you. By today’s standards, these seem like they hardly even matter or even equate.
Tauren should have planesrunning, demon Hunters should be able to customize their fury and Havoc forms.
Was there no mention about blood elves? I was watching this video in the background doing apologize if I missed it in the video
I’m a Blood Elf DK and I very rarely use Racials as they are pointless
you can aoe dispell the seasonal affix, the orb one, with arcane surge. Imo it is a decent racial.
As a Blood DK Blood elf racial is amazing. You can use it pre pull s.th. you have your first death strike much earlier available than other races. Also helps pooling Runic Power between pulls or when you get forced off of the boss.
@ oh thanks I must’ve not realised. I thought it just silenced the target for the second?
Still waiting for thee Worgen For for Worgen Druids, they just do all the cat form stuff in their normal form, like we used to have that cool Leopard man Form Back in WoD! 5% Vers was not bad either :D
Rugged tenacity is insanely powerful because it applies AFTER all other damage reductions so as you take 100k damage from an attack but you have a 30% reduction from a cd then you take 70k but now reduced by 65% from armor now you take only 24.5k damage and now you block about 2k from bramble if you're a bear tank plus that 3400 which can go higher but with this number you turn a 100k damage attack into a 19k damage attack or less ..you get my point ...2000+3400= 5400..my bear for example has 8k total reduction this way as thers also a trinket that provides raw damage reduction so stacking all 8k out of the 24.5k damage after % means I'll only take 16k damage ..meaning it represents 30% of damage taken after the % apply and its a god dam passive...raw damage taken reductions are absolutely overpowered if paired woth a tank that has good armor like bear and their own raw damage reduction passives to stack up...its insanely op
..
Sp yes 3400 damage reduction is actually powerful because it applies AFTER the damage has being cut up and reduced by other effects
On on top of that you get versatility which reduces damage taken a further 0.5%
wargen is my favorite race i love the lore of gilneas but i had expected them to get a redesign a while ago because they look like shit like why cant worgens look like king gilneas when he transforms to a werewolf
Worsen should be like running on hands and paws when you are in wolf form
The only thing a Worgen need, is a tail! Gosh, I love the Worgen, but it sucks that they have. no. tail. It looks so dumb and like a french bulldog at this point, especially with those elv like ears.
I mostly play belfs and I have never in my life used my racial. It’s pretty much never worth the GCD.
it used to be a aoe-kick, which was soooo good as a DK back in the day. as tank it was pretty strong
High mountain brewmaster might be good if it reduces damage from all tick damage.
Didn't worgens used to be able to use darkflight with other movement speeds when they first came out in cata?
Zandalari trolls channeled healing should be a hot, not channeled
No, that's literally the point. Then it would be the same as the Draenei one
humans got shafted
Im going to miss the current Zandalari Regeneratin'. I thought it was perfectly viable even with DOT effects. 50% nerf is a bit ridiculous to me. Maybe a 35% or 40% nerf would be good instead. Blizzard just throws numbers around though.
worgen should be able to use their all fours ability in dungeons and inside. its weird how its not allowed
They really watered the racial down over the years by design, so it's a little funny learning they want to revamp them
Its not the "Class of Rogue" its the Rogue Class
Its not the "race of Nightborne" its the Nightborne Race
I play a worgen druid, does this mean that the Darkflight + cat form's base faster move speed didn't work before and I just didn't notice?
Yeah, that seems like a nerf for highmountain taurens then, from 1% of millions of damage to 3400...? I think they should have given us a skilltree for each race. So that it is more significant bonuses. 2 min CD for a skill that lasts 5 seconds and 20% heal is too little. Rarely anyone using the radials..
Void elf DK movement is going to be insane as rider and the new rift
Quickly teleport to the enemy side of an arena and fire off abom/horsemen and dark transform for the ultimate zug
They should revamp the nerf on the Humans racial. I mean the two time use heartstone is just so bad compared to all the other races. I rather see a defensive buff or offensive buff or anything useful between.
Personally The only racial ability I have ever used on any of my charcters was the light forged dranie ability. I never use the human, forsaken or any other ones because when the opportunity comes for you to actually need it its blocked out for use. I find this especially so with my humans its suppose to be available for me to get out of being stunned or whatever but its always blacked out when needed so its pointless really. Was told they were replacing it with something more useful but we actually got a double hearth as well as just leaving us with a useless ability.
"Racials being viable in endgame"
I remember why i don't want to play again
Jesus fucking Christ youtube needs to chill. Getting ads even just 1.5 minutes into the video...
The highmountain thing could be much more effective on a brewmaster
Nightelf Shadowmeld has almost no use, other than to get you out of annoying "in combat" glitches.
Worgen should have a leap. The movement speed thing was nerfed in Cata to not stack because Blizzard is stupid and didn't want the alliance to have anything fun.
what horde race have similar movement speed racial?
@krypto051 Goblins. And it was so broken entire raids would take it to cheat the mechanics of the bosses.
Ceo: We need even more money what can we do?
Peon: We could revamp racial abilities so people buy race changes.
I would be so happy if goblin receive 15% more gold when selling engineer item
well, now the zandalari actually have more options on loas
Soon we have more and more vulps and worgs due to the speed and health and damage buffs
All seems like change for change sake. Would think development cycles could be used more effectively elsewhere in the game.
Hell yeah, Goat Laser!
Blizzard seems to hate blood elves. Arcane Torrent was ruined when they removed the interrupt effect. The current spell ability is awful and totally useless and on top of that it has a 2 min cooldown. The racial abilities from other races are OP compared to Arcane Torrent. This should be addressed as totally unfair to people who play blood elves. Blizzard should update Arcane Torrent to interrupt again.
Wait , how does Highmountain Tauren passive interact with BM Monk Stagger damage?
Thanks for the timestamps in this 30 min video, made navigating very easy and quick. Glad I didnt have to jump through the video for the one single thing that interested me. But hey some people may enjoy hearing someone yap for 30 mins for barely any relevant info!
first world problems huh
