Features / Racials you pick

Racials you pick

One utility racial, one passive, one weapon specialization and one profession bonus, from any race.

Your race is how you look. Racials are chosen in the Racials tab of the build window, from every race, one from each of the four groups below. A gnome can War Stomp and a tauren can Escape Artist. New characters start with none and pick all four.

Changing a pick needs a racial reset: free up to level 19, then gold or a Nexus Crystal, at most once an hour. Racials stay the same in every specialization.
