sounds more like a blood elf ability...this needs further study!Wain wrote:Draenei should get "Too Sexy for my Shirt", which allows them to hide their chest armour. The males anyway.

they could just replace the hit with a new stat like crit or something but some of the newer races have some pretty sweet racials so here's to hoping these guys get some new perks.

Re: Dwarves, Draenei, and Trolls will need new racial traits
Goblin
[Rocket Jump] ~ On Use
[Rocket Barrage] ~ On Use
[Time is Money] ~ Passive Stat Buff
[Best Deals Anywhere] ~ Extra Bonus
[Pack Hobgoblin] ~ Extra Bonus
[Better Living Through Chemistry] ~ Profession Bonus
They have a lot more options and a few more extra bonuses. Now if we look at the ones not so up to date....
Draenei
[Gift of the Naaru] ~ On Use
[Heroic Presence] ~ Passive Stat Buff
[Gemcutting] ~ Profession Bonus
[Shadow Resistance] ~ Extra Bonus
Dwarf
[Stoneform] ~ On Use
[Crack Shot] ~ Passive Stat Buff
[Mace Specialization] ~ Passive Stat Buff
[Frost Resistance] ~ Extra Bonus
[Explorer] ~ Extra Bonus
Troll
[Berserking] ~ On Use
[Regeneration] ~ Extra Bonus
[Beast Slaying] ~ Extra Bonus
[Dead Eye] ~ Passive Stat Buff
[Da Voodoo Shuffle] ~ Extra Bonus
All the "On Use" are fine, but the Draenei will be down a "Passive Buff" and is already down an "Extra Bonus", Dwarfs will be down 2 "Passive Stat Buffs" and Troll 1 "Passive Stat Buff" with the removal of Expertise and Hit.
Some of the new Stats are Movement Speed, Sturdiness, Life Steal, Avoidance (less AoE damage), and Cleave. I can think of some of these making sense for other classes (Like Slapper already mentioning) but none of them jump out at me as a perfect link to any of the races that will need new Stats.
And there is also room for new "Extra Bonuses" instead of some of these being removed. For eg.
Dwarf ~ [Smithing] You can repair your own weapons and armour without having to visit a blacksmith. (still incurs repair costs)
or
Draenei ~ [Heroic Presence] You gain 5% extra Justice and Valour points from all sources.
Well, whatever they add, I hope they opt to do more Extra Bonuses rather than just Passive Stat Buff, they are more fun and exciting imo.

Re: Dwarves, Draenei, and Trolls will need new racial traits
Honestly, they need to just remove combat effective racials. Race shouldn't be a choice when min/maxing your toon. Racial choice should be fun.
Just my two cents.

Re: Dwarves, Draenei, and Trolls will need new racial traits
I agree with this. When I chose my races I didn't do it because of what racials they gave but was given flack later on in raiding for not picking x race "because it would boost your dps". Thats such rubbish. Should pick your race for fun and what you like to playIckabob wrote:If they don't just up and rework racials to be fun/cosmetic only, they need to take this opportunity to make alliance racials on par with (or better than ) what the horde has to offer. It's no secret many progression guilds gravitate towards horde simply because they possess superior racial bonuses for PVE.

Re: Dwarves, Draenei, and Trolls will need new racial traits
I think there is room for racial bonuses for crafting professions (like the dwarf smithing example above), but I agree they should not directly impact dps, tanking, or healing.Ickabob wrote:If they don't just up and rework racials to be fun/cosmetic only, they need to take this opportunity to make alliance racials on par with (or better than ) what the horde has to offer.
