In The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO), Orcs (also called Orsimer) are a playable race with a rich lore and strong racial passives that make them well-suited for certain roles. Heres a breakdown of Orcs in ESO: Orc Racial Passives (Updated for ESO: Necrom) Orcs excel in stamina-based roles (Stamina DPS or Tank) due to their racial bonuses: Brawny Increases Max Stamina by 6%. Unflinching Rage Reduces the cost of Sprint by 15% and increases damage done by 5% while Sprinting. Swift Warrior Increases Weapon and Spell Damage by 3% and Movement Speed by 5%. Robust Increases Health Recovery by 250 and Healing Received by 6%. These passives make Orcs ideal for: Stamina DPS (especially melee builds like Two-Handed, Dual Wield, or Stamina Nightblade/Dragonknight). Tanking (extra health recovery and healing received help survivability). PvP (movement speed and sprint bonuses are great for mobility). Orc Lore in ESO Orcs are the Orsimer ("Pariah Folk"), transformed from the ancient Aldmer due to the curse of Boethiah. Their society is clan-based, with strongholds scattered across Tamriel (especially in Wrothgar, their homeland). They revere Malacath, the Daedric Prince of the spurned and outcasts. Orcs are known for their smithing skills, martial prowess, and fierce loyalty to their kin. Best Classes for Orcs Dragonknight Great for tanking or stamina DPS. Nightblade Strong in PvP and stamina DPS. Warden Good for tanking or hybrid builds. Necromancer Solid for stamina-based builds. Appearance & Customization Orcs have a distinct look with: Tusks, green/gray skin tones, and muscular builds. Unique facial tattoos and warpaint options. Armor styles that reflect their rugged, warrior culture (e.g., Orcish, Trinimac, and Malacath motifs). Final Verdict Orcs are a strong choice for players who enjoy: High-damage melee builds Tanking with extra survivability PvP mobility and aggression Lore-rich, warrior-themed characters Would you like build recommendations or more details on Orc-specific quests and zones (like Wrothgar)?

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.
