    Best Horde race for PvE

    Okay googling this isn't really doing much for me, I keep getting old posts, people talking about what race they think looks best or inconclusive arguments.

    Is there a clear winner for best horde race for a PvE rogue?

    Orc is the clear winner with Blood Fury.

    Check Shadowcraft or Simcraft.

    While this is usually true, remember that ToT has five beast bosses (Horridon, Tortos, Megaera, Ji-Kun, Iron Qon) on which Trolls will be doing 5% more damage due to Beast Slaying.

    Panda / Undead for Sustained (Double food buff vs health steal proc) ends up being very similar, maybe even leans to Undead.

    Troll + Orc are great for that opening ToTD burst at the start of a fight but with 2 min cd's i dont think it's worth it, and overall undead / Panda probably deal more damage.

    These are the only complete and non-subjective responses here.

    Simulations and spreadsheets exist specifically to answer this kind of question - open Shadowcraft for your rogue, or run Simulationcraft, and try switching races in those programs. That will answer your question if these quotes don't.

    Since this is an open-and-close conversation with a definite answer, which has been provided, I'm going to close this to prevent more confusion.
