Priest races in WoW Forever
Discipline · Holy · Shadow
6 races can be a Priest in Forever: 4 Alliance and 2 Horde. Gnome is new to the class since Classic. Each race is listed with its racial abilities, so you can weigh what it brings to a Priest before you make your character. Every Priest race has two Priest spells of its own. Fear Ward, a Dwarf spell in Classic, is now learned by every Priest.
