Today I garnered the last two allied races -- Vulpera and Zandalari Trolls. Thanks to the double rep bonus. I couldn't have done it without it. There's no good way to raise Vulpera rep, it's ridiculous how slow it would have been at normal speed.
I quickly race changed an ugly Forsaken priest into a cute new dog-eared Vulpera priest to better reflect my role as a healer and helper. This also got rid of an annoying double dose of Forsaken in my character listings. Now the only race that two of my characters share is blood elf, and that's only because Demon Hunters only come in two races -- blood elf or night elf. Demon Hunters have horns, though, so it's not like they're exactly the same looking as normal blood elves anyway. You could even say demon hunters are their own race, in which case all my races are unique~!
I built a new Zandalari Troll druid in order to enjoy its unique new shapechange forms. Turtle, Pterodactyl, Lizard -- every form looks great and totally different from the traditional night elf druid I'm used to.
22 characters distributed across 21 different races, 11 Horde and 11 Alliance, fair and square. Really I need to build two more characters -- a Nightborne and a Kul Tiran Human, but I'm not feeling it right now. Even if I built them I'd never level them so it would be a futile gesture. Maybe if they introduce a new class or something.
Of those 22 characters, 16 are max level, 1 is in the process of reaching max level, and 5 are newly built and waiting for the leveling experience unique to the new Shadowlands expansion. It won't be long now before Battle for Azeroth is 'defeated.'
I can't wait to sink my teeth into Shadowlands and my five new characters -- a Guardian Druid, an Enhancement Shaman, a Shadow Priest, a Brewmaster Monk and an Unholy Death Knight. These are all specializations I've largely ignored until now so there's plenty of new unique gameplay to experience from them. Combined with all the new distinct racial abilities and looks from Battle for Azeroth's allied races and the game feels totally fresh even after all this time. WoW has an ungodly amount of content. You just can't play it enough no matter how long you play.
