Rerolling Human for the expansion? - Page 3

If you want to talk about terrible racials, look at trolls. Still the worst racials and proud of it! Can't wait till the x-pack when they're the 8th worst race for a rogue!

Really? There's no race I'd rather be as a hunter.

I thought Hunters don't get glancing blows.

Berserking does have its uses.

Ive thought about this for a very long time. I doubt ill do it simply because im lazy but racials are out of wack. Stoneform is fairly usefull in pvp and in rogue duels but it can be replaced by consumables in pve(with 1/3 the cd no less). I would trade stoneform and treasure find for just about any other two racials in the game.

ps: if +weapon skill isnt fixed in the expansion ill bitch and whine and not do anything about, beware

edit: forgot about +5 guns witch does nothing just like treasurefind!

I don't know if it has lesser impact for rogues, but for my troll warrior Berserking actually feels decent now. Sure it's not the best ever activated racial, but it's a far cry better and most of all reliable now.

They don't, but +5 bows still gives about 1.2% hit and Berserking is a pretty sweet racial, especially when used in conjunction with demonic runes.

Stoneform is awesome guys, most especially as a Rogue
Dispels all uncleansable debuffs (Rend, Deep Wounds, Rip, Rupture, Garrote)
Gets rid of Crippling Poison, BLIND, and various poisons that are caused in raids.
Gets rid of Devouring Plague.

I'm very happy with my choice of race :)

they're the best hunter race by a significant margin.

CMs have hinted that Rep grinding would be much easier than it is currently, so the human rep racial will be weaker (it will still have a use). +Weapon skill still seems to be useful, since the Pally Prot tree has a +skill talent in it.

That's well and good, but I'm a rogue.

perhaps, but simply because troll racials are bad for you doesn't mean they have the worst racials. and i can't imagine that berserking is really a bad rogue racial :)

Still better than a Dwarf for raiding.

If you are relatively unattached to your current character. If you can re-level to 60 rapidly. If you have a guild which supports your expedient return to end game raiding and allows you to re-gear. I'd do it.

You are talking about rerolling a Rogue, not just any random human. If many of us could simply snap our fingers and swap to Human, we would. I think most raiding Rogues understand why you'd do it, easily, and most heavy faction grinders do, as well.

Don't forget the warriors! I've been trying to level a human replacement myself, but I'd forgotten how boring low level warriors were, and scrapped the whole thing. Now I'm just banking on some sort of fix for weapon skill. Cross your fingers!
