The math on it is hilarious. Like do these guys just check the numbers at all? Or they think all 2s are created equally 🤣

It was never meant to be equal. It’s wild that people can’t figure that out.

It’s supposed to be roughly equal to 1% crit. Is it? Guess it depends on gear level and class/spec. 

Dwarf 5% beast damage (and Tauren health) is the other half of the PvE bonus. If anything you should argue they change those to a more universal bonus if you absolutely must.

The problem I have is that Forever is a slow-paced game where it takes time to level and acquire gear upgrades. If you make a new Orc then right off the bat you're critting 20% more often than the other Horde races. Obviously that falls off as you acquire gear but it remains a good stat at pretty much all gear levels. The +2% crit damage sucks hard at first, is barely noticeable, and doesn't compete mathematically until high gear levels. I liked 1% hit way more.

They dropped hit since it gave nothing to healers. Not an elegant solution but this make the bonus apply to more specs/classes
