Orcs are the worst race right now :/

Bigevilpeter · July 2016

The have no role at all specially after next patch, they are still worse than imperials and Nords in tanking. Worse than Khajiht, Redgards and Woodelves in damage.

Even all the magika races are good now:
Argonians will be best pvp healers
Bretons best Pve healers
High elves best dps for all magika classes except DK
Dark elves best Dragonknight Dps.

What are Orc good for exactlty? Crafting?

This one she has an orc sister Rosiebelle. The orc she is good at frightening off bears that disturb the fishing.

Also she can open containers with the teeth.

Only good at running

Mine's amazing.

We don't care about passives.
Nerf'em if you will.

We're Orcs.
We're proud.
We don't change race.

Born to fight.
Hard to kill.

Come and get us you flat-toothed, pointy-eared, tailed-butted scrubs.

I recently created a female orc magblade, made her quite old and fat. I'm actually in love with the toon, no min max here

HuawaSepp · July 2016

and after the patch the orc is worse.
Yeah now if you do random dungeon with random members you can vote kick all orcs instantly

Mike0987 · July 2016

Try having a Nord as you first main character... At least a Dark elf gets additional flame damage, why doesn't a Nord get Cold?

I wouldnt say worse, they get 5% more healing now which is not much but its something, however other already better races like khajiht and Nords got the extra 6% stamina which was the only real bonus orcs had over them

@ZOS_GinaBruno

please take better look at orc passives, they are a really bad race now, at least give them like a 4% pure weapon damage or something

Nords are hands down the best tanking race in the game, specially with the stamina buff next patch, cold damage would be pointless since they arent a magik class and they have nothing to utilize it

RoyJade · July 2016

Well, my orc stamplar in pvp will be really hard to kill. I don't even use the health recovery, and I gain a flat 5% more health received. I already have a great survivability, it will be even better.
But I agree, orc miss something with the patch. But they aren't the only one who will feel bad without other racial tweaking.

Lysette · July 2016

Orcs are the fastest race in Tamriel, agility is their advantage and tactics focusing on this ability will lead to success. Well, or a ban, if you are unlucky.

Speed and weapon damage, I disagree.

KingYogi415 · July 2016

Lets all QQ until we just hold hands and tickle each other with pillows!

With enough nerf threads we the carebears can win!

KingYogi415 · July 2016

This is now a nerf orc sorc thread.

NeillMcAttack · July 2016

Tell that to speedy Gonzale....... Oh wait! He's gone! Nvm.

boldscot · July 2016

My duel wielding orc stamina DK does fine in the VMSA, up to a 460k score now.

Duiwel · July 2016

This is kind of funny and sad at the same time given that my Orc DK in EP is my only remaining EP char and my only Orc and all I use him for is crafting

PVP... I had a blast on my Magicka Orc Templar in PVP and pretty much anything. I've done almost all the dungeons, never got into ICP or WGT and healed through them. Never was that much into Trials after VSDA but who knows, I may go back to them one day. I am trying him out as a Bowplar and having a lot of fun with it so far! This is my main and highest level character that I've been playing for over 2 years now and still enjoying them.
