I want an Orc. More specifically, I want my Blood Elf Death Knight to become an Orc. I know, I should’ve chosen the right race to begin with, but he’s now Level 80 and it’s too late.

Well i have a level 73 hunter on WoW and i regret making that hunter a Draenei.

But then there is the problem with certain races can only be certain classes so i personally dont think blizzard would ever go through with it
