Warcraft Horde Guide
In this WoW Horde Guide I’ll introduce you to the Horde faction and its associated races.
Blood Elves, Orcs, Tauren, Trolls and Undead make up the races of the Horde faction. Each race of coarse has its own strengths and weaknesses so choose carefully.
Warcraft Horde Guide- 5 Races
Blood Elves:
After the destruction of their kingdom in the Third War by the Scourge the High Elves became known as the Blood Elves.
Get the Blood Elf’s mount, Hawstrider, just outside Silvermoon. As far as classes, many Blood Elves happen to belong to the Mage and Warlock class and even the Warrior and Hunter classes.

Orcs:
Orcs have a long tradition as Warriors and this in turn is seen in many of their characteristics. For instance they specialize in wielding axes and fight with brute strength. So if this is your playing style then the Orc may be a good match. Death Knights, Hunters, Rogues, Shamans, Warlocks, and Warriors are the classes available to Orcs. Large wolves know as Worgs are the Orcs’ mount of choice.
Tauren:
If your play style favors combat, then another great choice is the Tauren. This is mainly due to their great endurance and strength in battle.
Tauren have a really interesting ability known as the War Stomp. This ability allows them to tell the spirits to shake the Earth and stun their enemies.
The Tauren’s mount choice is limited given their huge size. The Kodo which is a large reptile is one.
Druids, Shamans, Hunters, Warriors, and Death Knights are the classes for Taurens.
Trolls:
The least common race in all of Warcraft are the Trolls. Similar to the Orc, they’re fantastic in combat. Specializing in Throwing Spears, they can also go into Berserker state which gives them spell casting ability and makes their attack speed faster.
Priests, Rogues, Warriors, Mages, Hunters, and Shamans are the classes available to Trolls. Raptors are what the Trolls use as mounts.
Undead:
Finally the Undead, also known as Forsaken, can belong to the Death Knight, Mage, Priest, Rogue, Warlock, and Warrior classes. The mount for this race is the Skeletal Horse. Two cool things about the Undead is that they don’t breathe so they can stay underwater and they can also gain strength by eating the flesh of other races.
