Burning Crusade and the WoW Census
Two months after the release of Burning Crusade, and already, the effect of it on the population of Azeroth is felt.
The census data from WarcraftRealms.com – which ingeniously ignores characters below level ten – reveals that Blood Elves are now the most popular Horde race! Furthermore, the Horde:Alliance ratio is now more even than ever at 1.3:1. Sadly the Dranei hasn’t performed as well as the Blood Elves, they’re solidly in the middle of the pack for Alliance races.
As for the classes, more Blood Elves are Paladins than any other class, enforcing the stereotype and boosting the Paladin class as the sixth most popular Horde race. 49 percent of Dranei’s are Shamans, and almost half of the Shamans in the game are Dranei. Of course, Shaman is still the least popular Alliance class.
Poor poor Dranei. Why do we hate them so? Is it the accents? Is it the annoying dance?
