After racechange what race will you be? And why?

theher0not✭✭✭✭✭KhajiitFor a few reasons
1) I am curently playing a khajiit NB
2) I love khajiit and will play them regardless of how good they are
3) I like their racials.
4) the only other race I would consider playing are Argonian(I shouldn't have to say more)
5) my character is called "Shrödinger's Khajiit" and I really like it (though from time to time I wish I could change the ö to an o so players from all contries can find me easy for PvE/PvP)
Basicly: I won't change.Edited by theher0not on June 21, 2016 10:00PM0 -

Like I said earlier 10 choices is max u can put on poll. And if u wont change it why dont u just vote ur current race?

NativeJoe✭✭✭✭✭ImperialThe way things keep going for sorcs, I might give Wobels Crit based tank a try, because I know I'm not going to be topping the dps charts anytime soon lol....
Besides Sorcs have the highiest possible HP at this point...so meh... might be something worth exploiting, considering our passive "implosion" scales off HP, And shields clearly arn't supposed to be a class defining feature. I'm guessing with all the heals they keep throwing at us, the hard handed push towards heavy armor to be viable... we might as well concede and go with the flow.
Besides; I already tested it on PTS, without mundas stones and ... it seems somewhat viable. if nothing else it would be a nice vacation away from the crushing shock+crystal frag meta.
but honestly it depends on the class changes we receive.... as it is the game of roll dodging peoples 5 count sorc nukage combos is getting old. I mean people don't even try to go through shields anymore. they just count to 5 lol650cp+ Sorcerer 100+ days /played

BretonI'll likely change to a Breton as my main character is a vampire and I quite like the idea of a human one, though I don't generally like playing as a human when there are other race options available, but that's what other characters are for0 -
Skinzz✭✭✭✭✭I think race change is just stupid. It takes no effort to level from 1-50. Say good bye to some races now because they will be extinct. FOTM will just become the meta now.Anybody got a group? LFG, anybody? Hello?0 -
Dromede✭✭✭✭Not planning on changing, at least not yet. Barbershop is a whole different story though
That one will be in high demand for me 
Skye Cloude - Sorc DPS, Master Crafter. Main, the bestest
Lae Lenne - Templar Healer Trial grade.
Dromede - Stamina Nightblade, she's a newb and doesn't know what she's doing
V'oghatta - Stamplar pretending to be a tank
Ulville Thonvella - aspiring Fire Mage, be careful around her fire sticks!
Dromedaris - lost and not found. Named after a shoe, what else can you expect from her? A proper tank in her wildest dreams
Swims-Naked - too pretty to grind, too silly to quest.
Sun Flair - Dunmer Templar that can't spell for life. To bad she's too broke to afford a name change... Well, at least she's pretty...0 -

Yeah, the poll results right now are not reflecting that opinion.

Aemon_Isklexi✭✭✭Argonian
That's a good point too. I'm too vain to age my characters though. Same reason I'll never make my Argonian a vampire (he'd go from black and red scales to completely white).ShedsHisTail wrote: »Could use it to age a character, too.

I doubt it will make much of a difference.
If levelling to 50 takes no effort, CP are account-wide and everyone has 8 character slots surely people who want to change their race to copy the current favourite are already doing so? This just gives them an even easier (but more expensive) way to do that.
Meanwhile as this poll and various other discussions on the subject show there are plenty of people who do not care about following the FOTM enough to change their race every time someone declares another one to be better.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

✭✭✭I'm not going to change any of my races. I now have one character of each race and a couple extra Argonians to boot. If they ever sell more character slots it will be Argonians all the way down for me. I may not ever get on the vMA leaderboards but I will be the fastest swimmer in all of Tamriel!

newtinmpls✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭No changes. All 12 of my characters are more than just a set of racial passives.
So very this ^^^^
My characters are characters; none of them has any desire to suddenly be someone else.Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis1 -

I will be honest, I feel like all those who voted argonian are just trolling or the much more likely reason: The sample size is relatively small (thus low power statistical analysis) to make any sort of accurate extrapolation to the general population that plays eso; therefore, unlikely this poll is a good representation of what the general population will do when race change comes along.
What I can't wait for is when ZOS decides to revisit racial passives and revamp them for some of the undesirable races (yes they did mention that they would revisit racials again at some point, can't find quote though). Those who do buy the cash-cow race change are going to be kicking themselves.0 -
