Hmm, so they changed their minds -

With two new playable races just on the horizon, many players have been asking when they'll be able to convert their existing characters into goblins or worgen. Paid faction and race changes will be available immediately once Cataclysm is released. Realm First achievements for leveling any class to 85 will be available in Cataclysm. However there will be no Realm First achievements associated with leveling characters of a specific race.
There will be a slight change to the way paid services work for goblins and worgen. Goblin and worgen characters wishing to change race or faction cannot be in Kezan, Lost Isles or Gilneas; they must be elsewhere to initiate the process. There are no restrictions on race/faction change to goblin or worgen.
Werehamster is aliiiiiiiive!

I'm gonna change Luine.
The question is should he get a sex change with the race change? Luine spent most of his life as Luin. I couldn't get the name on Uldum, so I added an 'e' to the end. I think Luine is more femine sounding. I'm not sure I'd ever be able to dance out of form a again. I can't stand the female worgen dance... too much breast and crotch grabbing.

I'm probably going to change my warlock. I only recently started playing it again since my main is maxed out on the new currencies and the only thing left I want to do on him is get at least 1 LK kill for the title since gear is pointless with the expansion so close.

I am reconsidering my race change.
As chuck pointed out on Tuesday, NE's have a 2% avoidance racial. Since bear tanks do not have a shield to block, we can use all the help we can. NE's have 85 NR. Oh and there's always 5% faster stealthing =]
Of course Worgen have 1% crit, which helps activate savage defense. Worgen have 64.75 (.75*L) NR and SR.
My original reasons were more RP. I felt that worgen just felt more feral.... even down to their mount being a racial.
I donno... I'm torn. Whatcha guys think?

I say stick with Nelf. You'll take less damage in the long run.
