Races & Racials

Undead is the most popular race for Discipline Priest at 52%, followed by Night Elf (22%) and Earthen (8%).

Undead at 52% usage is a clear favorite, largely thanks to Will of the Forsaken, which removes charm, fear, and sleep effects to counter Warlock and Priest CC.

Night Elf players bring Shadowmeld, which enters stealth to drop combat.
