    okay, okay, enough with the off-topic stuff guys, back on track.

    This thread is about trolls. There is plenty of fawning still to be done.

    you don't know what a common ancestor is, do you. I'm not talking about family groups. Common ancestor to cetaceans -> ambulocetus. Do you know what a cetacean is?

    you said that it would be "On par with a human reverting to a chimpanzee just to gain some bestial strength" Reverting to a chimpanzee implies that A) humans evolved from chimpanzees and that B) Chimpanzees are a less evolved form of life. Neither of which is true.
    Reverting to a chimpanzee would be an image people can understand because I doubt most people know what an australopithecus and I haven't learned enough to know if they determined what *its* ancestors were. Chimpanzees are a simpler form of life compared to a humans. They lack the opposable thumb, complex brains, tool-making abilities and abilities to run over long distances that humans have at their simplest.

    Don't be a smartass when you say something blatantly wrong and get called out on it
    It's called being SMART not a "smartass". Im sorry this is beyond your ken but you wanted to take a joke and dissect it to attempt to prove what? you can read wikipedia?

    Might be a little too overpowered. It worked on the ToC Northrend Beasts tho.

    Not going to bother answering the first two, since you will just assume I read wikipedia. (also, I said less evolved, not simpler. I choose my words carefully)

    The purpose is to dispel ignorance which is much to prevalent in today's society.

    OT: Trolls are best race because Troll Dance is best Dance

    I'll stick with Femtaur since they're my favorite race. Unless I was doing world's firsts, I would never race change.

    18 people are actually planning to race change for a little possible buff? Blizzard must make a fortune with their race changing service :S

    As a tank, I have no reason to race change anyway. I'll stick with my tauren. Even if I was a dps, I'd never race change for that :P

    Most of my toons are already Trolls ... so no changing for me :P

    Your comparison is actually wrong, since NE did not evolve from trolls, its in fact troll AND night elves who evolved from a common ancestor...just saying

    on topic: even if they gonna give trolls a 20% passive boost, m orc for life!

    Small?! 5% is a shitload of dmg, i sim 120k in femaledwarf as BM and 5% of that is 6k dps, thats like 2 items.
    If all the dps that can be troll in a raid are, that's almost 1 extra player.

    It's a Horde race, don't entire discount the idea.

    And isn't there some kind of weapon enchantment that you can buy which will boost your dps against beasts?

    http://www.wowhead.com/spell=13653 not exactly worth dumping any current enchants to get :P

    A race should either be attractive (read: Aesthetically pleasing, not sexy) , or have good racials. The curious case with the Alliance is that Humans have both and Dwarves/Gnomes have neither

    They've got to change this. Sure, in the past some races have had advantages in some situations but this is a bit too far.

    They will not nerf racial perks because of one raid. Instead the bosses are not really beasts like it has always been, except a few tamable exceptions.
