    Default Alliance Warrior Race choice with dedicated Paladin Healer(s)

    My 5boxing party composition was originally 2 Paladins+3 Warriors though now I am pretty sure I will swap a Druid for a Warrior even though it is not as optimal for dungeon clears because I want to have a Druid option at cap...

    I have been researching various guides and discussions regarding min/maxing racial choices for PVP.

    For PVP Paladins the Dwarf StoneForm racial really seem superior for PVP compared to Humans.

    For Alliance Warriors the typical racial guidance for PVP I have seen is generally Gnome>Dwarf>Human>Night Elf and an example is here:

    The reason Gnomes are rated so high for PVP Warriors is due to Escape Artist which removes any immobilization or movement speed reduction effects (one or more effects once/minute).

    The reason Dwarves are rated next for PVP Warriors is due to StoneForm which grants 8 seconds of immunity to all Bleeds, Poisons, and Diseases (once every 3 minutes) and can be cast when under those effects (even while blinded).

    For BattleGrounds I never foresee one of our Warriors going into the BG without at least 1 Paladin who can cleanse to remove magic, diseases, & poisons from the Warrior. If I ever go solo I will take my Paladin or my Druid.

    For World PVP I don't see our Warriors ever going to fights without 2 Paladins who can both cleanse and maybe a druid who can remove poisons and curses.

    With above in mind I am wondering if the racial choices on my warriors matter much in PVP if I always should have one or more dedicated healers. I would like to get at least 1 Warrior into raids to get the tier armor sets so maybe Human is a better choice.

    Curious what other people would pick for races for their Warriors for both PVP & PVE if they knew they had one or more dedicated Paladins for PVP?
