    Rep grinds for races are horrible

    It feels like a chore and a job to run around doing mundane world quests after I’ve already done their storyline.
    change can't wait.

    Are not.

    It's just an exalted reputation grind. Very tame stuff. They may be unecessary, but they aren't horrible at all.

    I agree. Doing the story should have "unlocked" the races. I mean... you are unlocking the race for your faction, not your own personal character. It doesn't make much sense.

    rep grinds are always horrible, they are always a chore, that's why it's called a grind

    So when did putting in months of grinding towards reskins become acceptable? Look at how Blizzard has lowered their own standards.

    I prefer every rep grind over running dungeons or even mythic dungeons to play allied races.

    I prefer buying the expansion and getting the race, like it used to be.

    let us just play them lmao. Or at least lock them behind the storyline maximum. With all I’ve done for Zandalar I shouldn’t have to clean up Dino shit for weeks just to unlock them.

    am I blizzard?

    aside from that, since I've unlocked all allied races, I want the requirement to stay, because why should other people just get them when I had to work for them

    I find them horribly boring, but it's straight forward and easy. I just hate the time gate, how there's just no way to earn more rep in a day than the game allows. On days with no Emissary, the small gain you get in rep from doing the WQ's feels pointless, but it adds up, just makes it a little hard to justify spending 30+ minutes a day (depending on which rep you're going fo and how many WQ's are available) when you gain so little.

    why not just put new races on the shop and then we don't need to rep grind?

    They are an award for completion of a story and being exalted ... this is pretty standard fair.

    They are essentially just cosmetic changes unless you are big into min-maxing.
