Dont race change to undead
Will of the Forsaken now shares a 45-second cooldown with similar effects, including the Medallion of the Horde, Titan-Forged runes, Insignia of the Horde, etc.
If anyone was thinking about changing to rogue for WoTF reasons.

Horde pvp racials are officially garbage. Drowned out and washed away by alliance baddy tears.
Depends on the race class combo in the fight. Dwarf priests used to be the best race for priests for a very long time. Gnome warriors and snare breaking. Human rogues and perception dominated a couple seasons of arena. Shadowmeld is extremely useful and you have to have been in a closet since BC if you think it's not amazing. Alliance have better pvp racials right now, even before this change goes through.Originally Posted by Fursphere

This will be the 3rd (or 4th?) time WotF has been nerfed - it's pretty much junk now. The shared cooldown is too long for use in arenas or world pvp, and using it will just mean you'll be eating full stuns / blinds / repentances/ frost novas / cyclones etc.
Aside from the announcement of the WotF nerf to coincide with the Paid Race Changes, the picture used to advertise the Paid Race Changes is an Undead to a Blood Elf.
Purposely done or another coincidence?

Your tears, I feed on them. QQ moar peeps, seriously it was one of the most OP racials for FIVE years, it's about time it got nerfed. This is coming from someone who was long time horde too.
Says the alliance dbag hiding behind 4 tremor totem stacks.
Couldn't possibly be because you play alliance, could it?
I don't know why you think I'm QQ'ing...I was just stating what will happen if this change goes through.
I'm not saying "change it back NAO dammit!!!"
Orcs (blood fury), Taurens (warstomp) and Blood Elves (arcane torrent) will still have strong racials post patch. And with faction & race changes now available, I can pick whatever race I want, provided its available to that class.
However if you want to talk about OP racials, what makes the human racial the best racial for PvP is this reason - it continues to get more powerful as new trinkets are released. Just compare the Titan Forged trinkets to some of the other trinkets available now:
www.wowhead.com/?item=Titan-Forged Rune of Audacity
vs
www.wowhead.com/?item=Reign of the Dead
Difference: 57 SP and 150 to 370 DPS depending on crit rate
vs
www.wowhead.com/?item=Battlemaster's Ruination
Difference: 39 SP and 4.6K health when used
Humans can also use any combination of trinkets up to ilvl 258 including combinations like:
www.wowhead.com/?item=Shiny Shard of the Flame
www.wowhead.com/?item=Shiny Shard of the Scale
www.wowhead.com/?item=Reign of the Dead
[item=47316]Reign of the Dead[/item] (non-heroic, and yes they stack).
www.wowhead.com/?item=Flare of the Heavens
www.wowhead.com/?item=Eye of the Broodmother
And this gap is likely to become wider with the release of the next patch when better trinkets become available:
Cheers,
S.
