Class racials

Post by RobbieG1o11

I was so ticked after 2.4, they got rid of the priest skills that were dependent on your race, and I was about to roll a priest. For example, Night Elf Priests had a skill called starshards, or something like that, that no other race of priest had.
I think Blizz made a big mistake when they did this.
Infact, I think they should have done this to other classes.
This way, you have to REALLY think about a race for a class, more than just the general racials.
I mean, it only has to be 1 or 2 skills, but it makes a difference.
I think it would have added more, and made character creation a bit more in depth.
And when you think of lore, they would just have to have different skills. Like, a tauren druid and a night elf druid should have different abilities, because a tauren is more animal like, maybe it would have a few more skills in the feral tree than in the balance and restoration tree.
I was just wondering what you (WoWhead members) think of this.

If you're picking X class and Y race because of Z racial, then people will feel like they can't play something that visually pleases them more without being slightly inferior. Blizz made a good decision. This was months ago. Complain on the forums, Wowhead cannot change the game.

I think RobbieG1o11 has a good point, charcter creation isnt as depth as it used to be. having racials in a way keeps the lore alive, sure one can be more stronger then another in an area but deal with it you dont have to make everything easier on everyone. it takes the challenge out of the game if you make eveyone in a class have same abilitiies. its just like patches making instances and raids easier takes a challenge away from actually becoming good at what you play.

If you read my entire first post, I did say I was wondering what WoWhead members thought.
I'm not really complaining, I was just stating how I felt. I mean I did say I was ticked, but that's not what this is about, that just started me thinking.

I think it was more fun when the priests had racials,i think the game would be more fun if they make it harder i mean enemies dungeons n all ,all classes with atleast one special racial for every race night elf priest starshards,dranei priest hymn of hope ect..., and add more classes. but thats just me some people would hate it.

only reason i sad racials keep lore alive was becuase star shards for night elves showed that they get power from teh mon and stars and devouring plague comes from undead becuase well, they were affected by a plague. So having racials is kinda like the lore. Night elves, dwarves, dranei, etc werent affected by it so why do they have it? some races should have some other abilities others dont
