Choosing Your Character Race and Class

admin — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 06:43:39 +0000

Your character class is an important decision when you begin to play. It will affect what you do and what you will do later in the game. You will first be asked if you want to be Alliance or Horde. The side you choose will effect which server you play on as well as what your character looks like. It’s really just your personal choice unless you have friends that already play that you want to play with. If so, you need to find out what side and what server they play on so that you will be able to communicate with them while playing.

You will need to choose your:

•   Race
•   Class
•   Gender
•   Appearance
•   Name

If you are Alliance, you can be a Dwarf, a Gnome, a Human, a Draenei or a Night Elf. If you are Horde, you can be an Orc, a Tauren, a Troll, a Blood Elf, or an Undead. There are different class selections and different starting points depending on which of these you choose. We will explain them all below.
