You know, tauren actually have a slightly longer range than the other Horde races(as we've noticed). Due to model size. I'd imagine we also have a longer range than Alliance races too. Nerf tauren :x

Requires wearing three pieces of healing gear, though.

Yea Tauren have a 9 (? or 8, not sure about the number but it's a fair bit more distance) yard melee range as opposed to 5 melee range for everyone else. Fairly noticeable when you're tanking Anub'Rekhan's adds with a cow tank buddy and I got out of range when I get webbed while he was tanking it no problem webbed next to me.

You could also abuse it to outrange Fankriss's Mortal Wound debuff. Got patched out tho :(

42 yards. it pwns for ninja pulling mobs from behiind a group. kiting with smite might be a bit tricky though. pewpew.

This post contributed absolutely nothing, but thanks for throwing in the random played-out memes. If you're just looking to fix your imbecilic gaze on the words you made appear on the screen as you wait for your tenders to wipe away your drool, I'd recommend going here instead.

I think same race tank pairs are a good idea, if you can do it.

My night elf MT used to be able to outrange the Fankriss Debuff too. I know because I was his offtank and found myself out of a job. :(

Anything else would be unnatural in the eyes of god.
