What is your race/sex/class good for when exploring?
Alliance:
Races:
Human: Female humans have a SMALL hitbox, this being said, they can fit through small space many races cannot. Male Humans have a large hit box which can be useful in wall jumping.
Gnomes: With both genders of gnomes, comes small stature. This pocket assassins can go in small spaces.
Dwarfs: The taller cousin of the gnome also possesses small stature but cannot fit into some places gnomes can.
Night Elf: Female Night Elfs, like the female Humans, also have a small hit box but the Night Elf's box is a little bit larger. Night Elfs also have Shadowmeld to slip by monsters unnoticed.
Draenei: These space-goats have the Gift of the Naruu allowing for, albeit low, healing if you have fallen.
Horde:
Races:
Orcs: Male and Female have a mid-size hit box.
Tauren: These geneticly modified cows have a large hit box while can be useful for wall jumping.
Undead: The females of the Forsaken have a hit box comparable to the females of their living side. This being said, they can fit into small spaces. The male also have a hit box on the smaller side.
Trolls: This race has a medium-sized hit box, good for about anything.
Blood Elfs: These Alliance out-casts have a silencing mechanic and a smaller hit box for squeezing through cracks.
