What will be your main race after the launch of U21 Wrathstone?

Seraphayel

The title pretty much says it all.

In the last weeks we all have been discussing the racial changes a lot and I am interested to see which races will be favoured in the upcoming update and beyond.

Keep in mind it doesn't matter if you race change or not, I just want to see which races will be the most / least popular ones after U21 hits live servers.

Feel free to discuss any race-related topics and explain how or why you made your choice.

I'd please you to not turn this into yet another complaining thread about racial changes. We already have more than enough of them where pain points and issues can be discussed, this thread is just to get an overview about race distribution in U21.

Maotti

Nord

Been Nord since release and i see no reason to change. I'll just go with the flow.

Vapirko

Orc

Because obviously theyre good but mostly my PvP stamplar main has always been one as has my Stam sorc dps. I’ll be changing two toons to Dunmer for sure.

Gythral

Breton

15 chars - of which 1 may get a name change & 2 others may get a role change but none will get a race change, if I go down that rabbit hole there will be no returning, just the change race every update or so

Name change is a early access 'mul'e naded as such, which the crafting bag makes redundant, the others are just try something different...

efster

Bosmer

My main has always been a Bosmer and it's going to stay that way because she's cute, useless new roleplaying passive and all.

Integral1900

Nord

Nord, same as before, because there are very few problems that can’t be solved with a big enough hammer 😎

colossalvoids

Dunmer

Nothing changed really for me so no racechange.

Probably will change 2 of 4 redguards to argonian and bosmer a bit after.

Uryel

Bosmer

My main has been a Bosmer thief for 4 years and will remain a Bosmer. I will have +3 free skill points from that ridiculous, useless passive that grants stealth detection, I'll have to gear differently to retain some form of stealthy gameplay, but I simply refuse to switch to Khajiit.

Watchdog

Khajiit

This one's main race has always been Khajiit. No reason to change that, yes?

CMDR_Un1k0rn

Imperial

Because I have no imagination.

heaven13

Breton

Chose Breton but only because that's what she is now. Even if she'd gotten hit hard with the nerf hammer, I wouldn't race change her. I won't be making use of any of the tokens for any of my characters, except maybe to make some cosmetics tweaks (though I am still undecided about even that).

r34lian

Altmer

Main is Altmer and don't feel like changing her though wanted redgaurd but now I'm kinda attached to that character have played s loooong with her!!
Although will change my warden bosmer to redgaurd

Mysanne

Breton

I've got 8 characters and 4 are already Bretons. After U21, 5 will be Bretons.

User name WatchDOG... Plays a cat... World implodes! Xd

My main fully researched crafter sorcerer whom I have had since 2014 has always been an Altmer and I see no reason to change them despite their lore suddenly acquiring stamina recovery contrary to 15 years of established TES canon.

KingofAnnwn

Redguard

Only because it's the race I used for my first ever toon. It's the one I use to collect skyshards, motifs etc

Vulsahdaal

Imperial

Throughout the Elder Scrolls series, Breton has always been my favorite race.

However, in ESO my main is, and always has been, Imperial.

Im shelving my magic characters until ZOS fixes the mess they made of them, and Im really not sure what to do with my Bosmer now as shes no longer a stealthy thief/archer.

So yeah, Im glad I still have my 3 Imperials at least and those are the ones Ill be playing for a while..

Juju_beans

Bosmer

My main is my Bosmer NB and will stay that way after the update.

Keldheir

Bosmer

Bosmer forever. Only race I truly enjoy playing.
And since I only play magicka builds I never had useful passives to begin with anyway.

Strider__Roshin

Orc

The power gap between Nord and Orc is too large unfortunately. They'll need to either nerf Orcs or buff Nords for me to stay a Nord.

Faulgor

Breton

My main has always been a Breton, and with the update he's going to be even better.

I will also change one char into a Breton, but mainly because I want to re-roll him as a Necromancer with Elsweyr.

Narvuntien

Khajiit

So my first character is swaping to Khajit to follow the stealth passive but my PVE dps will remain MagDK dumner and Bosmer Stamden

valeriiya

Orc

My Orc DK is my main and I'm not changing. I don't think the changes are drastic enough that they're going to "ruin" my tank.

Possibly Breton - depending on how significant the change is. I've been told they are removing the High Elf's racial bonus to magicka regen (which was why I picked the race). So if I notice these changes having an effect on my ability to maintain my magicka I'll likely give Breton a try.

FrancisCrawford

Breton

My main characters, in some order, are:

• Templars -- all Breton
• Sorcerers -- Altmer and Breton
• Stamblade thief -- Bosmer

Nairinhe

Dunmer

Playing Dunmer since TES 3. It stays Dunmer as long as Dunmer are a playable race

AhPook_Is_Here

Dunmer

Because they are the fun mer
And its always their day in the sun mer
And they are the one mer

RedTalon

Orc

Staying with my orc and imperial

AlnilamE

I don't see the need to change the race of any of my characters.

If I am to consider a character my "main", it's my Dunmer Magblade, who's the first character I created. But I have a number of characters that I play regularly.

MjolnirVilkas

Nord

Probably keeping my toons' races' as it were.

RedTalon

Orc

Really wish thw people not changing could sell there tokens honestly Though I may use the name change token to change my orcs name to bring it in line with my clan of chars

onegunholiday

Breton

I don’t think any of these changes warrant a race change. I’m keeping my main as a Breton because it’s always been the first race I make in every ES game.
