I agree with changing race. Maybe add a change sex – I have a 66 priest but I really wish I had rolled a female toon & not a male. Again a one time thing it’d probably be. I’d change my hunter from draenei to dwarf probably too ^3^

I do and don’t see your points. I think it is crummy they take away the unique racial spells for each priest but the idea from blizz is to make any priest viable. Which means they don’t want one race rolled highly over another. Fear Ward made sense as it’s helpful to PvE progression and for PvP. So that one makes sense. To them getting rid of the racial spells altogether seems silly as none of them were really any more powerful than another. I do disagree with the dwarf being ugly my confusion is why they aren’t as tall as the male dwarves more than anything. Besides they’re redoing race racials as it is currently so I’m not even sure if humans will still have those same ones come WotLK. I’m surprised also that you rolled a dwarf to just get into raiding to begin with especially since Fio from my understanding made AC just so he could raid as a Balance Druid which was highly looked down on for a long time.
Maybe Blizz may change their mind later on but I think you are gonna be stuck with the dwarf priesty unless you start using the alt for healing in WotLK.

I think your little Dwarf butt is sexy… NE women have too much attitude and Human chicks can’t handle me so I happen to have a thing for Dwarfs… what can I say… at least your not a Gnome.

Actually just went on a rant of my own about this. Not that it will help anything =P

I copied this ove to my flash drive and will try posting it in the Beta forums when I get home from work.

and I agree about the ability to do a switch, even as a one time thing only open for say from 3.0 relese till wrath release. That way people could recover from the changes they made.

then again reading this reminds me why the change was needed. now at least new players won’t be forced into something just to get a raid spot.
