Our WoW: Classic Best Race Guide has a detailed list of the best race choices for each class! If you’re looking to find the best options for either PvE or PvP for your Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock, or Warrior then this post should help you out.
The race you choose for your character in World of Warcraft: Classic is very important due to the unique racial abilities and passives that each one of them has. This is usually not the case in most games, but the advantages given by particular races in this game are fairly significant.

Each race you have to choose from has different abilities that can be passively applied or actively used. Here’s a list of all of them, I’ve put stars next to the best ones, three stars are the best of the best.

WoW Classic: Best Race Choices by Class
Here’s a look at every class and the best race for them by PvE (Player vs. Environment: Monsters, Dungeons, Raiding, etc.) and PvP (Player vs. Player). There’s also a great video I referenced byPunkratthat goes into quite a bit of detail as well.
Druid
You can only go Night Elf for Alliance or Tauren for Horde as a Druid. The choice is whichever side you prefer to be on, however, we’ll look at which one is better for the particular style of play.

What are the best races for each class in WoW Season of Discovery?
Season of Discovery has changed up WoW Classic in a big way by allowing Rogues, Shamans, and Warlocks the ability to tank and Mages to heal. While that might seem like a huge shift, your best races won’t be changing.
What the developers have put an emphasis on is fun, and that could mean tanks might not necessarily have to go for Orc or Human as their race for the added weapon skill offered by their respective races. If you want to play it safe, those are still the picks, but Blizzard has said they want to find ways around that being the meta.
