## **In short**

WoW Midnight has 26 races and 13 classes with 240 playable combinations. Every race can play Warrior, Hunter, Rogue, Priest, Mage and Warlock. Rare classes are Evoker (Dracthyr only), Demon Hunter (Night Elves, Void Elves, Blood Elves), Druid and Paladin. Tauren and Zandalari Trolls have the widest choice with 11 classes.

Current WoW (Midnight) has **26 races** and **13 classes**. Not every race can play every class, which leaves **240 combinations** in total. Your race mostly decides your looks, starting zone and a few racial abilities. How your character plays is decided by the class.

- **[Druid](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/druid):** 8 races, namely Night Elves, Worgen, Kul Tirans, Haranir, Tauren, Trolls, Highmountain Tauren and Zandalari Trolls. Each race has its own animal forms.

## How to choose your race

Pick the race you like. Racial abilities give small advantages, but the difference is minor and changes with patches. Looks, animations, story and faction, on the other hand, stay with you every day. If your favorite race cannot play your dream class, look at the classes that almost every race can play.

Not sure which class it should be yet? The [class quiz](https://findyourmain.com/en/wow-class-quiz) will help, or let the rare classes fight it out in the [arena](https://findyourmain.com/en?classes=evoker,demonhunter,druid,paladin,shaman). Classic Azeroth has its own overview: [WoW Forever races and classes](https://findyourmain.com/en/guides/wow-forever-races-classes).
