Greetings greetings greetings!
Welcome to my thread on warrior racials in arenas.
In this thread we shall help idiets decide on RACIAL FOR WARRIOR. Since some idiet on this idiet server are quite indecisive and can't choose, needs a poll almost (but can't make polls.. so wtf?) .
Alright. We're considering pvp racials through out vanilla naturally, because warriors right now are fun to have as alts with all dem big shiny weapons around to hoard from pve clicker raids, however the racials need to be favourable in arenas come burning crusade (yas, fotm best).
Gnome
Undead
Orc
Gnome racials obviously come quite ontop against kite dependent teams, which pretty much sums up druids. This is also heavily efficient against mages, but also to gapclose versus warriors attemtping to peel you off of his or her teammates. From playing a druid to gladiator myself I can say this racial is strong, strong as hell and I remember those good gnome warriors that always managed to catch you off-guard with racial out of snares (you do get comfortable with +400 games of non-gnome warriors). Real good clutch racial for gapcloser as druids use grasp in panic.
Undead racials do give you an extra fear break, but also for those idiot 2v2 2DPS teams who run succubus seduces (yes, you actually met some real DREk DoGE Super FUck Up RetaRD Burst teams, odds are tiny but also wpvp 1v1 duels). Not to mention we'll be playing on a private realm, it won't be all too hard to snipe some teams knowingly if you play certain hours (gearswapping towards full shadow resistance for example, you get 10 additional tiny bonus as undead and since shadow res is BROKEN as fuck on Nost, it's worth mentioning).
Orc racials are without a doubt one of the best pvp racials out there, not only to neglect warrior charge stuns but foremostly to resist rogue stuns and in tbc druid bear stuns -> into roots. Very, very effective. Then come also blood fury, which is like popping recklessness in arenas, you will get focused by anyone with a pair of functioning eyes and debuff frames.. but it can be pretty good in solo and clutch moments (not to mention pve then obviously, on pair with +5 axes).
Given the fact the server is pretty balanced when it comes to good players both sides with multiple characters, any class composition will be available both sides. Not like in retail on some dead servers where you couldn't find any decent druid on x faction side.
So, which racials are you considering?
Shoot!
Yours truly,
