Gnome Or Human For PvP

[Zutasu]

Im planning on rolling a warlock for a focus on pvp, and I'm curious as to whether I should go human or gnome. Humans get a free pvp trinket which frees up a trinket slot, and gnomes get escape artist.

[gherkin]

In BC it was guaranteed Gnome - snares raped warlocks, but now with Circle I'm not so sure its the best bet.

Pick what you want imo, they're about equal in use, but Human saves you the trinket grind.

Gnomes are way cooler, humans look rediculously ugly. (it's scientifically proven by the U.G.L.I. [Union of Good-Looking Inviduals])

If you don't care about the looks of your character, follow the above said

go with the Gnome, Escape artist doesnt share a CD with PvP trinket, so you get two escapes. Humans only get 1 and an extra dps slot. Gnomes also get extra int (5%) which is a bit more crit etc. As for avoiding the trinket grind ? if u dont get a pvp trinket u have to grind for a dps one anyway so it makes no difference. Two escapes and 5% int, vs 1 escape and increased stealth detection. PvP is all about stayin alive, two escapes 4tw

Going from a rogue to a lock in pvp?

I'd go for the gnome personally for the racials... and humans look retarded when casting.

[Zutasu]

Not switching mains :P I would like to pvp with a lock as well.

[HavocLock]

Ah well.. good luck. I still hit my keybind for stealth sometimes when entering arena... ;D

[Zutasu]

:P Lol, I expect to do the same. I do it quite often on my hunter.

Now YOU feel pain!

Don't forget about the increased spirit from humans = more SP but anyway i'd say gnome they have better racials + spirit wont give any bonus to locks in cata where as intellect will.

[Bakis]

Escape artist kinda blow for a lock. Our bane is melee, it doesnt remove their snares except some chains of lol. I value the stealth detection and free trinketslot much higher.

[romant]

Boo dont roll alliance go undead for pvp.

Butttt.. if u want to chose go with the gnome because less of them out there and the racials imo> than humans.

[maladorian]

Personally i wouldnt go with gnomes, escape artist isnt a major hype to every man for himself.

plus gnomes are the first to die, always are targeted with a big fucking arrow for horde...

its not called human punting.....

[veshkiidryn]

If i did more pvp i would role a human, because of the improved stealth detection cause i always tend to die against rogues.

Human destrolock + 2x on use PvE trinkets = BOOM

Gnomes are way cooler than Humans in wow though, which is saying alot cos gnomes suck.

Most use-effect trinkets share an internal of 30 seconds.

[Proletariat]

Regardless, the option of having two trinkets rather than having one slot be forever condemned to a PvP one is unfathomably good.

Go human, miles ahead of any other option with Will being nerfed in 3.3

[eddiii]

personaly i went gnome from ele shamy and rogue donno maybe cause they r cooler and they have better racials than humans (went engenier to) and they r way harder to target

[Deleted]

human gains 1+ trinket slot cause u got every man for himself. if you are going for pvp benefit instead of looks

[Hyponic]

Well.. If I were you I wouldn't choose a race depending on racials. Anyways, I don't really know what you should choose. Gnome maybe?
