wow All Race-Class Combos in The War Within

[Staff 1,182]

 

The legendary "which race can be which class" chart got a whole new entry at BlizzCon! With the announcement of the new Earthen Allied Race, there's an entirely new row to fill and compare with the others. 

Luckily for us, ephastus is on the job and has updated the chart. Earthen are doing pretty well, with only 3 specs unavailable to them, which makes them above average! The current winners of the class distribution race are clearly the Tauren, with only Demon Hunter and Evoker being unavailable. The "loser" is pretty obvious and not really a fair comparison. But, aside from the Dracthyr, it's a 5 way tie  at the bottom between Undead, Nightborne, Gnomes, Void Elves and Mechagnomes, all with 5 classes they can't pick.

Unfortunately that leather armor-wearing Dracthyr from the Warband image was just a mockup and Blizzard have stated there's no plans for them to get any new classes available yet, so they'll remain at the bottom until that happens, and maybe even after that!

Honestly, any race that can be both priest and warrior should be able to be a paladin and with DF that would make it available for everyone but maybe they're saving that for Midnight.

Boy alliance gets shafted on the pallys if you compare them to hordes shamans. Then alli only gets 3 Druid races, and horde gets 8 shammy races while alli gets 5…that is kinda *filtered*!

What about Kul Tirans? They are human! 

Other combinations are likely coming, they require some specific assets. Druids will likely be last, then they will probably keep DH and Evoker as the only classes locked to races, but if they do them they would require the most work, like new story areas and reworking Dracthyr racials to not affect Evoker talents.

I thought the day I saw a Tauren rogue would be the day I saw a gnome druid, but no - the cattle get it all, and we get nothing more. Urban ironforge gnome Druids please! Badgerform tanking, rat travel shape, fungal restoration…

one of these things is not like the other

Still calling it that on the day Sargeras becomes a problem again, the Illidari in an effort to replenish their ranks will begin recruiting from the Nightborne and Void Elves.
