What race should my war be

[Elephant]

well im making a new war since my last acocunt was banned and i need to decie on race. Trolls are obviously sexier then tauren but on the other hand 5% more health is crazy good and will only get better next expansion, but my worry is it will be nerfed like bear form was. this is for purely PvE tanking, wont be doing much PvP.

so what do you guys think troll or tauren for my warrior?

[Loveshock]

For PvE, definitely Tauren. Hell Tauren's are good for PvP too. I'm leveling a Tauren warrior up right now and he's level 50. Trust me, go with Tauren, you won't be sorry.

one last thing, do you think i should do BS/mining or engi/mining or maybe get engineering to 375 then mine and stock up like crazy and get engi/mining (tank helm+45 stam trinkets [goblin or gnomish?]) (from BS probably the chestpeice possibly a nice 2 hander for when i do PvP)

If you think you are going to be raiding more, then I'd do engi/mining combo. But for PvP bs/mining is the way to go (Deep Thunder rapes).

But I'm not sure if it's goblin or gnomish... I have a feeling it's goblin, but a quick trip to wowhead.com or thottbot.com will clear it up for you

If you're loaded, I mean, really loaded... go with BS/Engi spec...

Both my hunter and rogue are farming herb/mining classes so getting ore isn't that difficult.

Also, before you get ahead of yourself, remember that Season 1 gear will be available to you for HONOR points when Season 3 comes around... Gladiator weapons may not be the "Skillherald", but they're nothing to scoff at either.

When it comes to Gnomish/Goblin Engineering there's two big differences, that being the trinkets (Poultryizer/Rocket Launcher). I personally went Gnome Engineering on my warrior for the Gadgetzan Transporter (really makes the trips to CoT a whole lot less annoying) and I always like to shut casters up before I close in on them (in case intercept is on cooldown). At low levels you get the ever so fun Death Ray which is great in mid bracket BGs and a number of other neat little toys with 10 minutes or less cooldowns... Lots of Goblin stuff has mostly 10-30m cooldowns. Rocket Launcher being an exception (a big exception).
