I literally have no idea, what other race can be a demon hunter

[KOUNTERPARTS]

Orcs and Draenei. These two make the most sense lore wise, given their respective histories dealing with the Burning Legion. Their races are more-or-less shaped the way they are now because of the Burning Legion fucking up their lives.

[Eto Demerzel]

Fel Orcs and Broken make sense... Orcs had clans for almost everything, they followed their traditions and rituals almost blindly not even caring about outcomes, so i could potentially see a fel orc small tribe from outlands who actually followed "illidari traditions" and became demon hunters (and you even have a blinded orc model, though its in a wheelchair).
On the other hand, draenei people deeply exposed to the twisting nether become broken... they are accepted by the majority of draenei people and potentially the alliance, the explanation about why they used fel could be that they decided to use fel powers to fight the fel (like illidan) back on Argus.

Plus... if there are murlocs demon hunter, there can be anyone... i hardly doubt any illidari bothered training murlocs, so if they learn on their own... anyone can.

[Kumorii]

Zandalari had demoniacs a long time ago, who did the whole "eat demons for power" thing that DHs do. Also they have a skeleton which means they can do backflips without looking silly.

TIL All other races are just flesh and no bones!

[Ardenaso]

we could easily make Draenei as former Man'ari seeking redemption

The problem with becoming a DH is that its a really painful process to go through and not everyone lives to see it through. Naturally Elves who were "immortal" or long living lives = 1000's of years can better adjust and consume the fel and use it as their own, but not all survived. The DH's we played were the "elite" that made it through the process. Normal mortal races can't go through that kind of process and would end with them dying which is why we never saw any Fel Orc or Broken demon hunters in BT back in BC. I could see the nightborne / Void elves being able to be demon hunters. Probably won't see this happen though till we see illidan make a return.

Hey HS has an orc, naga and sporeling DH

Where? Cannot find that anywhere.

[letssee]

a human existed in the comics

[Yooginava182]

HS as in Hearthstone. They are in the new adventure, Sklibb, Karnuk and Shalja.

oooooh right right. My bad. But even then, those aren't considered canon.

[Kokolums]

While back, someone asked the question if DH will be locked to NE/BE only. Blizzard responded 'if it makes sense, we will introduce more races for DH"

But, I don't know which race would make sense. The only one I had in mind is there broken/naga(coilskar ones)
I guess everyone one can become a demon-hunter, since we found the instructions in the secret place back in Cataclsym.

thoughts on this?

Lore has been utterly destroyed. So its no problem.

Well... they could actually RP as fel orcs and man'ari respectively. But if would be quite jarring for them to actually be siding with the Alliance/Horde, even more than playable quasi-factions like Illidari and KotEB.

[matrix123mko]

Zandalari and regular trolls.

Yes.

Nightborne and void elves.

No. They weren't trained for that.

[TheRevenantHero]

The draenei were hunted down by demons mercilessly and watched their fellow Eredar descend to corruption into Man'ari. Draenei would make absolutely NO SENSE as demon hunters.

[matrix123mko]

All I could picture were Nightborne and Void Elves, though that'd be kinda redundant.

Because you have never read about demoniacs.

draenei made sense the whole time aöready. There never was a reason why they would not be DHs.

The reason was that they didn't want to animate three races.

I wish you were wrong but you're not. BfA was the beginning of the end for coherent plot. Shadowlands is absolute garbage with all its stupid retcons and it will only get worse.

In Ashes of Outland campaign.

you could easily make them different like former Man'ari seeking redemption and reconciliation; just as how the Worgen and "Stormwindian Human" Death Knights were both Lordaeronian

[Halfaheart]

Draenei/Orc DHs make the most sense and would be well received imo

Yeah I really don't see that happening. Sure that one NPC in Legion did it but he was a huge outlier. I just really can't get behind draenei turning to the power of the fel. I can't see new demon hunters happening in general with the Burning Legion defeated.

Any race can become a demon hunter technically. They just have to be trained, blind themselves, absord the demon soul and all that jazz.

orcs, and dreanei (Velen would probably have a aneurysm after seeing one) maybe tauren or human because humans are wow's version of a swiss army knife.

Both trolls and dwarves have more class options than humans though.

[Ardenaso]

another question to add, given that the Legion is undone now - will there still be some sort of a Legion vision needed at the ritual?

if you unionize Kul Tiran and Stormwindian it should be equal
