Want to make sure you pick the best warrior race when you roll your new character up? Well, what counts as the best is going to be dependent on which endgame role you intend to fill, but don't worry, we'll help you figure out the best racials for whatever you want to do with this article! First, we'll discuss PvP.
Human continues to dominate, thanks in large part to the extra trinket slot Every Man for Himself opens up by virtue of serving as a PvP trinket.
When you add in the extra expertise gained with Maces and Swords, Human is a no-brainer.
Runners up are Orcs and Dwarves; both gain additional expertise with different weapons, and both have powerful cooldowns; the offensive Blood Fury for Orcs, and the defensive Stoneform for Dwarves.
Second, let's discuss tanking races.
There are three viable tanking races in the game; Tauren, Night Elf, and Dwarf.
Each has different benefits; Tauren have more health, allowing them to soak up burst damage better.
Night Elves have improved dodging, giving them overall less damage taken than any other race.
And Dwarves have Stoneform, a cooldown that removes various status effects and temporarily boosts armor.
Of the three, Night Elf is probably the best warrior race for tanking, but any of the three is a good option.
Finally, we're going to discuss DPS.
At lower gear levels, Draenei can be the best, especially if you coordinate with your party to make sure everyone is optimizing their hit to take into consideration your hit buff aura.
But ignoring Draenei, Orc takes the top position thanks to Blood Fury and Ax Specialization.
If you aren't using an ax, though, Troll's Berserking puts them in the top position.
The last remaining races to benefit DPS are Human and Dwarf; Humans get three extra expertise with maces and swords, and Dwarves get five extra expertise, but only with maces.
I hope this has been info has helped you figure out which racials make for the best warrior race for you.
It really is dependent on what you want to do, so think carefully about your endgame goals, and remember that in the end racials are a very minor advantage compared to everything else you will be working on at level eighty.
