    Argonians? Why talking about them? The orc passives need more love! :'(

    I don't think ZOS is racist... they are playing the "best" races too :trollface: for sure!

    Argonians are best at being wallets and purses but to call them a race is an insult to the races that actually are races.

    I like my Argonian tank, but I don't think ZOS is racist, or that Argonian are the best at every class.

    They used to be *** for a long time. Then they got a buff. But you need a buff when you look like that. :)

    Argonians? A superior race? What an interesting opinion you have there. However, my Altmer would love to have a few words with you. :)

    Argonian kidney is best served at room temperature. It is even better when the Argonian is still alive, the fear adds... spice. Primitive Lizards.

    Argonian low key master race.

    Gotta love that potion passive!

    Argonians just let themselves be taken as slaves so they can gather information and because they really really like being told what to do, example the volumes of the Lusty Argonian maid.

    Y-you do realise that none of this is real, yes? that they're all just a bunch of pixels on a screen and you cannot logically be "racist" towards something or someone that does not exist in reality?

    It amazes me that so many people on this forum still think that their argonian slave jokes are clever

    And yeah, +1 to this. people who think that selectively discriminating against certain types of the aforementioned pixels on screens is in any way funny or intelligent need to log off for a bit and reconsider their life choices.

    Argonians are my favorite race in The Elder Scrolls next to Dunmer...But, everytime I hear a funny Argonian joke, my sides are left in chains. Maybe the people who don't find it funny should just hide. You wouldn't want to belt someone over a joke regarding a fictional race. ;)

    (Writing these puns physically hurt me.)
    Welcome, Moon-and-Star, to this place where destiny is made.

    I play healers or DPS often for vet dungeons and trials (NA, CP810+). I play mostly elves or Argonians.
    I primarily play Damage-Based stuff in PvP, but occasionally I'll play something tanky or got the heals.
    I also love gaining more knowledge both metaphysical and mundane regarding TES lore.

    I also occasionally role-play, but I prefer playing the game.

    I see this as an nerf Argonian tread, and yes I agree they need an nerf.

    remove the healing bonus and buff swimming speed to balance it perhaps some increased health regen.
    Does not know anywhere in lore its stated that Argonians makes good healers.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Does anyone here understand the concept of how boring and unfunny a joke becomes the more it is repeated?

    We get it, argonians have leathery skin, blah blah blah. You guys incapable of coming up with anything fresh?

    Why is this even a discussion?

    Argonians are a bunch of creepy bog-trotters who worship trees. They literally rely on their environment because they cannot protect themselves. Why do you think they have been enslaved for so long?

    Also, when did they become the best race?

    We all know that Argonians are the best in the game at everything. Does making a single race superior at everything make them racist?

    If by racist you mean "Are there races in ESO?" then yes, ZOS is racist... But that's about it.... Be honest... Which would you rather have; Bosmer seat, or rich Corinthian Argonian???
