Point is, most of other racials are situational, Humans got a flat benefit.
But in those situation, you will regret your eventual race change, and call WotF/WarStomp/StunReduction OP as hell.
I still think orcs are far superior (as a warrior atleast).
So again, no, it's not OP.
EmfH should have been made baseline for all races and humans given a new racial ability.
There's no reason for the pvp trinket to not be baseline from level 1. It alone would help in every single way with absolutely no downsides.

EMFH is only as good as the trinket you use to replace your medallion. In previous seasons it was only overpowered if you had access to heroic raiding tinkets.
With the addition of PvP Power, yes it is overpowered.
EDIT: and yes, EMFH should be baseline for every race. There's nothing fun or exciting about the medallion. Give it to everyone and give us fun choices.

Lol, so overpowered idd, everyone at the Yaspresent Tournament were human!
Oh wait, they were all undeads/orcs/taurens.
Not that it proves that much, but still, the situational gain of other racials is clearly better.
Really, I can't get how ppl still complain about it.
Damage vs utility, last one always wins in PvP

The confusion caused when one's mind
overrides the body's basic
desire to choke the living shit out of
some jerk who desperately needs it
it's powerful in the beginning of an expansion.
It's ridiculously "unfair" the further it goes.
Were humans running around with a use trinket and vial/cunning etc any different? No.
What I think is slightly more OP(and I love it dearly) is being an Engineer and using 2 use trinkets, I basically have a trinket up 50 seconds out of every minute.
look it up agian. used to give immunity for 5 seconds and it also used to not share a cd with similar effects, it basically gave undead 2 cc breakers.
i never understood either why they made the nerf to wotf but left emfh alone, wotf only worked for charm, sleep, fear where else emfh worked for everything, it kinda evened it out, the nerf just made wotf way under emfh and made emfh much more powerful. imo if they never nerfed wotf there wouldnt be as-many whiners bout emfh.
with that said tho i think the whining bout EMFH is just that, whining, it seems to me like some one is just jealous and has had their ass handed to them too many times by human/ally

100% the reason I rolled a human warrior was to abuse EMFH.
So just to clarify some things:
Troll racial (Berserking):
8503.8 haste (20% at our lvl) for 10 sec. every 3 min = 472.43 haste overall
Orc racial (Blood Fury):
4514 AP and/or 2257 SP for 15 sec. every 2 min = 564.25 AP or ~ 282.125 str/agi overall and/or 282.125 SP overall
Human racial granting the ability to use 2 dps trinkets (lets analyze both just in case there is speculation on which is better):
(also I am using next seasons trinkets since this season is almost over)
tyrannical gladiators badge of victory:
5,672 str/agi/SP for 20 sec. every 60 sec. = 1890.67 str/agi/SP + ~1150 pvp power over movement trinket overall
tyrannical gladiators insignia of victory:
4,066 str/agi/SP for 20 sec. with 45 sec. ICD = 1807.11 str/agi/SP + ~ 1150 pvp power over movement trinket overall
So yes, some of you will argue that Wotf is superior, but you still have to carry a movement trinket, so yes you can get out of fear every minute basically (but lets be honest, they will just re-fear you)
However, unless your haste is worth 4 times your primary stat, humans have far superior burst capability then any other racial. As far as situational use, the only closest thing would be Wotf, but its worth does not surpass the burst you would lose. 2 sec stun every 2 min, 2 sec silence every 2 min is almost useless.
They could always make EMFH 3 or 4 minutes but not share a cooldown with the trinket.
Your calculations are wrong, cause you didn't account the fact that they halved the bonus STR/AGI/Sp on the on use trinkets but didn't update the tooltips.
And in PvP, you cannot just say "OH, THE TRINKET PROCed, LETS JUST BURST!", you need to setup the kill. Atleast in decent PvP.
Orcs/trolls may stack racial and on use trinket, getting higher burst.
also, lol at the "is almost useless" part.
as a human player (through no choice) I agree.
I much prefer other races, but as a fulltime pvper, I cannot justify going any other race, turning down a flat 1k pvp power bonus would be foolish.
Problem solved: make badges and insignias unique-equipped with each other
You're not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories on mmo-champion, which makes me wonder what they're trying to hide.
Sums it about right.
Utility provided by some racials (Shadowmeld, Will of the Forsaken) is much more worth than flat damage increase.

EMfH is on the cooldown with PVP trinkets (2 minutes) where WotF shares only 30 seconds with the PVP trinket.
About 4% more pvp damage and a huge stat proc is way better than the Orc and Troll racial for anything that needs to do damage. It was unfair when people used PvE trinkets and it's even more unfair now with PvP power.
At one point on the PTR, in Cata, they made it a 3 minute CD and then reverted it because of the massive QQ from Humans relying on the PvE trinket crutch.
