I would probably base this on which side you prefer, alliance or horde.

Yes, night elf catform is way better looking, but Taurens racials is clearly better - especially for PVP.
Personally i prefer Taurens castinganimation, but i imagine people are split on that.

Just go with your female instincts on this one :)

There's no statistical advantage to night elves. The slightly better stealth is pretty meaningless.

For feral DPS, neither side really gains anything.

For feral tanking, 5% health is a bit better than 1% dodge, and horde side gets Thrall's Resolve which is BiS tank ring for ages and for which alliance has no counterpart.

For resto and balance, 5% health is a lot better than 1% dodge, and war stomp is incredibly good.

Tauren is better in every possible way.

I'm a pretty big fan of being able to eat/drink in a bg and then shadowmeld- when I'm not feared anyways ^^

In ten years of playing WoW I can't remember to have ever logged in with a male Night Elf - to me they are the most ugliest race/gender combination available.

I used to play female Night Elves, but simply cannot stand their embarrassing (walking) animations any more.

Male Tauren are a bit too bulky for me. I also cannot stand their continuous back/butt scratching.

Hence: Female Tauren. They look a bit odd, but I somehow like this. There is a certain kind of cuteness to them.

And Warstomp is indeed a useful racial (Shadowmeld for stealth drinking is also very nice, though).

In the end just follow your "guts".

Yeah but catform and bearform are ugly as fuck and http://db.vanillagaming.org/?item=15855 is better since it's 300 armor in this patch and not 150
