Races

Races are within about a 1% DPS margin which means it doesn’t really matter what race you play. With that said there are a few races that have utility benefits that may be useful in the content you are doing such as Dwarf’s Stone Form, Blood Elf’s Arcane Torrent, or if you are particularly M+ oriented Night Elf’s Shadowmeld can be useful to drop threat.
