Best Alliance Races for Preservation Evoker PvP
- Dracthyr
Dracthyr Racials
Because only Evokers can be Dracthyr, there are many unique racials that WoW has never seen before. This includes these powerful active spells:
Glide reduces fall speed. Although this does not seem strong it can be handy in Rated Battlegrounds on maps like Arathi Basin.
Tail Swipe uses your tail to knock all enemies within 6yds into the air. This gives you an additional way to interrupt spells or kite away from enemies.
Wing Buffet is a spell that flaps your wings and knocks all enemies in front of you. This knock can be used to interrupt spells or to help kite away from enemies. It is also useful on maps like Blade's Edge to knock enemies off the bridge.
In addition to these active spells, Dracthyr also gets additional
Mastery from Awakened.
