The "best" race in The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) depends on your playstyle, role (DPS, Tank, or Healer), and whether you prioritize min-maxing or prefer lore/aesthetics. Heres a breakdown: Best Races by Role (Meta Picks) DPS (Damage Dealers) High Elf (Altmer) - Best for Magicka DPS (Sorcerer, Nightblade, Templar, Necro). - Passives: Increased max magicka, spell damage, and recovery. Dark Elf (Dunmer) - Great for both Magicka and Stamina DPS (hybrid-friendly). - Fire resistance helps in some endgame content. Khajiit - Strong for both Magicka and Stamina DPS due to crit bonuses. - Best for Nightblades and Wardens. Orc (Orsimer) - Top for Stamina DPS (melee builds like Dragonknight, StamSorc). - Passive boosts weapon damage and sprint speed. Tank Nord - Best defensive passives (damage reduction, ultimate generation). - Great for survivability in trials/dungeons. Imperial - Extra health and stamina, cost reduction for blocking. - Strong alternative to Nord. Argonian - Potion passive is great for sustain (useful in no-CP content). Healer Breton - Best magicka sustain (cost reduction + recovery). - Ideal for Templars and Wardens. High Elf (Altmer) - Extra spell damage and magicka pool. - Strong for offensive healers. Argonian - Potion bonus + healing done passive (niche but strong). Honorable Mentions Wood Elf (Bosmer) Great for stamina builds (stamina recovery). Redguard Excellent stamina sustain for PvE/PvP. Lore/RP-Friendly Picks Dark Elf for Dunmer lore (Morrowind fans). Khajiit for stealth/thieves. Nord for Skyrim-style warriors. Final Verdict Min-Maxers: High Elf (magicka), Khajiit (crit), Orc (stamina), Nord (tank), Breton (healer). Casual/RP Players: Pick what you like! Racial differences matter less outside leaderboard content. Would you like recommendations for a specific class or playstyle?

The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
