Blizzard Entertainment nerfed some racials and added new ones, bringing most classes into alignment for their utility and damage dealt. It means which class you’ve chosen can change how successful your character is.

If you plan to raid Molten Core, and you’re an Alliance priest. Then you can pay attention to this article, Raiditem will share the best WoW classic race for you. BTW, cheap WoW classic gold is hot sale now!

HUMAN
Humans have the largest number of choices among Alliance races for race and class combinations they can play. These include mage, paladin, priest, rogue, warlock, and warrior.If you want to play a hunter, which is available to nearly every race in modern WoW, you’ll need to play something else. Their racial traits are strong, though not as overpowered as some other races. Notably, they receive a Diplomacy benefit to reputation gains, meaning that if you go human, you’ll receive 10% more rep for every activity you participate in – a good deal as WoW Classic reputation grinds take roughly forever.

Other WoW Classic racial abilities include Mace and Sword specialisations, which automatically increase your skill with maces, swords, two-handed swords, and two-handed maces by 5 Perception, an active ability that ‘dramatically’ increases your stealth perception for 20 seconds, useful on PvP servers; and The Human Spirit, which increases your spirit by 5%. Human priests also get two class-specific racials: Desperate Prayer, a self-heal on a 10-minute timer; and Feedback, which burns the mana of any creature that damages the priest while it’s active.

Humans are an excellent choice for those players whose characters use swords or maces, or who need mana (most casters) other than priests who raid. While human racials are extremely strong for priests, the specific uses for dwarven Fear Ward makes that race a better choice for raiding.

NIGHT ELF
Night elves can be druids, hunters, priests, rogues, or warriors. They are the only race that can be druids in Classic. Night elves have the amazingly overpowered Shadowmeld ability, which acts a bit like rogues’ Vanish, dropping you out of combat and putting you into stealth. Unlike rogues, you cannot move without dropping stealth, but it’s a great way to stop monsters from killing you when you’re trying to run away.

Other racial abilities include an innate +10 to nature resistance. This will become incredibly important in later phases of Classic, after the opening of the Ahn’Qiraj raid instances, where nearly all damage is nature-based. Night elves also get a wisp form when dead, giving you 50% more movement speed, which is super useful in Classic given how long the death runs are, and a 1% increase to dodge. Night elves don’t get any weapons skills, alas. Night elf priests get Starshards, a damage ability, and Elune’s Grace, a damage reduction cooldown on a 5-minute timer.

Night elves are an obvious choice for druids, but we feel there are better choices for other classes. Hunters and rogues don’t need Shadowmeld as much, since they have other means of dropping aggro. Warrior tanks benefit from the increased dodge and nature resistance, so they’re a solid choice, but will rarely make use of Shadowmeld, and human racials are also strong for warriors. Priests who plan to raid should be dwarves – more on that in a minute.

DWARF
Dwarves can be hunters, paladins, priests, rogues and warriors. They can find nearby treasure on the minimap, have +10 frost resistance, 5 bonus gun skill, and Stoneform – a powerful defensive cooldown that makes dwarves immune to bleeds, poisons, and diseases, as well as increasing armor by 10% for 8 seconds. Stoneform is reasonably powerful in PvP.

The best WoW Classic racial abilities for dwarves, however, are the ones awarded solely to dwarven priests: Fear Ward, which protects a player against the next fear effect cast on them, and Desperate Prayer, a self heal. Fear Ward is especially powerful for the Magmadar encounter in Molten Core, the first big raid instance of Classic, making dwarven priests a popular healing class to bring along.

If you’re not going to be a priest, don’t plan on raiding, or PvP – we feel the humans or night elves are better choices.

GNOME
Gnomes can be mages, rogues, warlocks, or warriors in Classic, and this lack of class variety is one of the reasons why they’re among the lesser played races. For abilities, they get +10 to Arcane Resistance (not particularly useful), 5% increased intelligence (useful for mages and warlocks), +15 to Engineering skill, and Escape Artist, a one-minute cooldown that gets gnomes out of immobilization or movement speed reduction effects.
