Anyways, I've recently discovered one of my now favorite WoW blogging sites, because its filled with people like me. Players of WoW or similar games that just like to have some fun with the intricacies of how the game works. It has everything from tips on every class, but also things like race specific comments and outrages.
So I just recently went over the 2.4 patch notes and even though it's not listed(as are a lot of things addressed in the patch notes) Male Tauren weapons are now 50% smaller when sheathed. This was supposedly due to weapons clipping through the ground. Especially 2-handed weapons.
Wait wait wait wait ........wait....................wait.
So what your saying is the Male Tauren has been singled out and had something that was appealing to the class(everything being huge) and almost make a mockery of it. It's like we are being discriminated against, almost as badly as the troll population as a whole. So now my weapon is 50% smaller when sheathed making it smaller than orc weapons (who are subsequently shorter and greener than taurens).
Proportionally speaking it makes other weird things like human greatswords looking as tall as their are while it's tiny on a tauren's back.
Now mind you I haven't really noticed the change for a number of reasons.
1. I have been lvling my priest alt to get her to Outlands.
2. When I have been on my Tauren Shaman, I've been Dual Wielding most of the time. Overall my damage output is higher and I don't have to worry about losing mana as fast, and wehn i'm running guildies through instances it's easier to grab aggro off of multiple mobs when It doesn't take me almost 4 seconds to swing at something (and potentially miss.)
Sure when I draw my massive 2Handed mace now it looks like a magic trick but leaving my weapon draw isn't a possibility in some cases like when riding a mount. It automatically is sheathed, except during a small glitch I found after eating a savory deviate delight.
And truth be told when you are riding around Azeroth or the Outlands your staring at your back for 80-90% of the time.
I think that if they do this change that everythign should get scaled down porportionally...(making gnome great swords smaller than most peoples daggers
)But i have yet to truly check this out for myself but i'm sure it will not make me happy in the least.
On a more positive note, I do love being a Tauren Shaman.
