UD vs BE

I'd say UD personally. I find that the second trinket for fear plus the shadow resist outweighs a silence that will generally be used for mana and arcane resist.


It all depends on the situation and what you're doing though.
 
UD because blood elf males look silly, and there are two many blood elf females running around.
 
Don't forget 15 Spell Power from Bloodthistle.

Its hard to believe this but I'll be the first here to say that Blood Elf is the best Horde race for Priest.

If you're OK with sacrificing 15 Spell Power, an extra interrupt, 6% mana back every 2 minutes (if you choose to use it macro'd like I do), a way to unstealth Rogues, reduced damage from Hunters, Mages, Druids and reduced chance of being sheeped... For WotF when you could just LoS / range fears ;) For Shadow Resist that helps against, what, 5 good Warlocks in the entire 19 twink bracket? For Cannibalize which is very good but not if there's not a corpse around or you're in combat. In case you're out of combat then you could just drink or make frequent stops by the mana hut.

Both are great, just go with your gut... But my vote is for Belf all day e'rry day.
 
agree ^

new lifesteal type racial for UD might make them somewhat worthwhile come MOP

resistances are gettting nerfed, races getting 19%+ resistance to xxx-schools of magic due racial was last shown nerfed to 1%.....worthless
 
Its all situational and dependent on how good ur positioning is

id say if all u ever do is solo que or do arenas bloodelf is better...

if u group que or plan on premading undead is betterYeah belf silence and arcane resist is nice but if ur in the back @ max range where ur supposed to be, any mage would have to over extend to cs or put any dmg into u and if ur team doesn't have downs the mage should die pretty fast....and if ur a priest running into a group to AT someone ur lost and should reroll :)

If ur undead u can sit in the back move forward with the group and cannibalize on the corpses along the way and with the lock dmg these days id rather have the shadow resist anyways

Go belf to be mainstream.

Go undead to be straight out awesome. And cool.

Pick the one you like, for the looks or movement or racials or whatever. I'd much rather play a char that I like for the looks and movement than for the racials. :)
 
Wait 1 month, go panda, and do dat kungfu.
 
male undead hands down. they have the most swag out of any race in game
