Orcs

Orcs have always been my favorite race but I cant play them because they lag behind due to racial passives. With this new changes how do you think they will be for a stam DD

    Probably be pretty good. For stamina based classes, RedGuard, Khajiit, Dunmer and Orc are all likely going to be strong. Not equal, but I do not think a huge difference.

    There are still better stam (pve) classes than Orcs. However, I have two orcs and don't care about min/maxing. I have loads of fun playing them.

    Moved onto BDO and GW2 Skyrim, ATS/ETS2, ACNH and the overall goodness of single player games

    Not sure how much the loss of max stamina will be offset by the increase in damage, but I do know the nerf to +500 max health and stamina is a slap in the face.

    I like the changes to orcs. They no longer get that health recovery buff automatically, so they they can't hit you run away with their speed buff and heal up , they have to keep attacking and be aggressive to get the new buff much like orcish personality.

    I'm probably using my race change token to switch my DK Tank from Argonian to Orc. Granted I'm losing resource generation, but I've always loved the race, and after playing through a good part of Orsinium, on top of the changes, I think this is a good time to switch.

    I do like how combat gives them their buff but I don't like that they do less overall damage with the pitiful increase to max health and stamina. The physically strongest and most aggressive race in the game should have greater bonuses than +500. We run with tens of thousands of points in our stats so giving orcs such a small bonus is pretty much like taking that entire racial passive away.

    The Dunmer are going to hit harder than Orcs and this makes zero sense to me. Nords should be hitting harder than Dunmer as well.

    The health is too low on orcs. That is all.
