How Powerful Are Tauren? - World of Warcraft Lore

[@Doronsmovies]

Based on the poll I posted in the community tab on the channel most of you guys wanted to see the tauren video first. So here it is! :)

[@docdat3468]

PLZ don't turn on the subtitles by default you are good to understand

[@alphawolf6482]

Do worgen

[@Akkeo0o]

Worgens next please

[@rcwashington3393]

You should do blood elves next. I’m curious to see how powerful they are with their limitations since Arthas’s attack.

[@kevinobill4818]

I got one question. What is the diet of the Taurens?

[@horner385]

Tauren is that really buffed friend that can lift fucking cars but is the most peaceful from your group

[@kylonjones5678]

Horner that’s true

[@ArpadSzijgyarto]

They are the furry version of Professor Hulk. ;)

[@rolan4dezwinz381]

Horner which is such a waste of potential.

[@zaidanesem6635]

how tf do you have a friend that can fucking lift a car????

[@GevatterToth]

@@zaidanesem6635 its simple, he is a tauren Main

[@boschyapma7663]

Huln Highmountain killed hundreds of Demons and killed Tichondrious himself at the War of the Ancients. Later on he banished Deathwing himself from the Highmountain lands, Cairne Bloodhoof died at the age of 107 and according to 'Tides of War' novel, Cairne would have likely won the Mak’gora. He was calm, and it was practically child's play for him to goad Garrosh and use his reckless anger against him. All eyewitness accounts recorded that Cairne was doing well and was winning before he was poisoned. A random Tauren can charge and easily kill dozens of Humans on the battlefield as we can see in the Battle for Azeroth cinematic. They are probably one of the strongest race that Azeroth could offer.

[@ghostpinguin]

Kinda makes me wonder why the Humans or even Night Elves never made an Alliance with the Tauren.....

[@silverspear21]

@@ghostpinguin Warcraft, I think it was the 3rd game that Thrall helps the Tauren so they allied themselves with them. What I do not understand is if they are so attuned to nature etc and believe in honor and all that, why are they still with the Horde after what Sylvanas has done and keeps doing.

[@filthygaming265]

@@silverspear21 It really looks like the horde is being split between Sylvanas and the Forsaken and pretty much everyone else. If you don't mind spoilers then watch some of the wowhead videos on the horde war campaign for 8.1.but without spoiling anything specific, another Horde civil war is coming...yay....Didn't they just have one in MoP?

[@silverspear21]

@@filthygaming265 When I first started playing BFA (Alliance side) I immediately thought that Taelia was Bolvar's daughter. Now that Anduin knows I am thinking Blizzard will somehow write Bolvar out of being the LK so he can spend time with his daughter. The Alliance will dethrone Sylvanas as warchief and she will take up the LK role. Some expansion down the line will involve the after life or spirit realm where we will then need Sylvanas' help (Blizzard afraid to write her out etc).

[@CZ57-Avenger_]

@@silverspear21 Because Baine is a wuss. ^^ The only reason Devs killed Cairne is because lore-wise he would never follow Garrosh, so they needed to get rid of him. Baine only grunt about things but in the end always go along with it... And most important, because the DEVs hate the Tauren... very little lore, almost no important NPCs, no tauren bosses... wasted oportunity with taunka, with Cata... the only little effort was in legion and even then... Four playable elven races and not a single important tauren...

[@wsgthebg]

Can't wait for the heritage armor, it looks so cool.

[@Mick0Mania]

I legit plan to go back to WoW just for that.

[@LichlordKazam]

It's not the armor i'm looking forward to though. It's the quest that comes with it. It's been SOOO long since we've had any proper tauren quests.

[@bugonaykishignanaboozhoo4378]

Lichlord Kazam F from what I've heard it doesn't even contain much Tauren lore.

[@aidanconaway7658]

Keep it up,i really enjoy these race videos as it helps me choose my favorite race,thanks again,have a nice day!

[@so_qp]

Im alliance player but i have respect for taurens , they are like horde equialent of the Nelf or Draeneis

[@Kristers_K]

Their connection to Nature is quite unique and special, you could say that they were druids long before the Night elves, especially because of Cenarius, sure, they were primitive but unlike other races they were born and are deeply attuned to all things Nature and none respect it more than them. So undoubtably they make some hell of a powerful druids.

[@Doronsmovies]

Definitely 10k+ years of honouring the nature has to come with some perks.

[@CptCh4os]

In the War of the Ancestors trilogy it is mentioned that Malfurion is the first student of Cenarius

[@Prottype]

CoughcoughDarkshorecough

[@deniz3029]

No. The night elves definitely are the first druids, Malfurion was Cenarius’ first student as stated higher.

[@geigercourtier]

You’ve made misleading statements.

[@lambertlipnicki1416]

Extremely powerful but they prefer to chill&relax

[@Ridjobradi1]

It would be awesome if the totem on the upcoming heritage armor could be used as a 2h weapon

[@greenshards7422]

Nope they are to lazy to make it work I wish tho

[@tyrnial8095]

mate I actual made a ticket about this recently to clarify this. Basically the GM said that this will be most likely a cosmetic transmog.... what is gonna break my entire heart lol anyways he liked the idea and suggested me to just tell blizz in game bout it>.>

[@LEKAROK]

Hello Doron, this video is nice :)

[@Doronsmovies]

Спасибо. :)

[@JangtotheWonyoung]

Great video, you are the one that helps me the most. ^^

[@Shovelchicken]

I kinda want to see how strong the trolls are. Specifically the horde aligned trolls. I question just how many darkspear there actually are, they’re probably the least populated playable race (not counting any of the allied races)

[@shakulnural5413]

I was hoping to hear a little about the sunwalkers too, but overall a good video that does the race justice.

[@Alexanderiii]

You didn't mention the Highmountain Tauren.

[@casuallycompliant3045]

Cows dont qualify as moose

[@BarokaiRein]

I feel like the weight of the tauren is really off. 1000 pounds is nowhere near heavy enough for what can be up to 12 feet tall bipedal bull with massive limbs. Realistically tauren should weigh somewhere between 3000 and 4000 pounds, not 400 to 1000. Like if you just look at them for a moment it should be obvious that these things weigh A LOT more than actual bulls, which can weigh up to 2200 pounds.

[@jorgeantonio8293]

/moo

[@JulianaBlewett]

The tauren were here before the yaungol. When the sundering happened, some tauren were stranded on Pandaria in the Townlong Steppes, where over the millennia, they grew more feral and rugged to survive in the harsh mantid-infested lands. So, to reiterate, yaungol are descended from tauren, not the other way around.

[@vladpopovici7506]

Juliana Blewett Wowgamepedia would beg to differ. Doronsmovies got it right

[@Skollshorties]

Cairne was a strong and scary dude.

[@taylorcorbett8848]

Strong but not scary

[@Skollshorties]

@@taylorcorbett8848 When was in his 100s he was still able to match and beat Garrosh. Was only because of the poison did he lose.

[@Mick0Mania]

My favorite playable race! My main is a Tauren Brewmaster. I picked monk because the gameplay felt more fun, but I do regret it a bit lore wise. I transmog him to look more like a shaman or druid. There wasn't really a brutish looking no-armor melee fighter in the game, and there still isn't one that can tank, so Brewmaster will have to do. I wish they added some sort of Berserker class to the game, with blademaster being a spec. Survival hunter is the next best choice but... I dunno. I feel like a Tauren has to be a tank, you know? I might try shaman tanking once classic is here.

[@Dionyboz]

Please do trolls.Blood elves or night elves are ok too

[@RawdEU]

Would love for tauren to run as a mount like Worgens

[@kristiansrensen4825]

Could you write on the screen when you says feet translate it to cm? there are people on eu watching you vids too :)

[@rso823]

It is possible for you to convert it by yourself

[@Q8Bart]

Plainsrunning was a racial for Taurens same as Running Wild for Worgen 😉

[@o_o5813]

I suggest that you make a lore video about Vareessa Windrunner

[@Bugaran]

I love the calm Music from Mulgore

[@jayej3834]

I wish the Tauren had more Major characters than just Baine and Hamuul. Even tho part of the Cenarion circle Hamuul is old and past his prime, and Baine isn't accomplishing that much and is too scared to stand up to Sylvannas. Give the tauren more love, Maybe have baine gain power by becoming one with the earth mother and being powered by nature.

[@Kalibby22]

as a tauren and as a druid this one makes me particularly happy

[@dustin1931]

[@therealnelox]

Can you do, How Powerful are Necromancers?

[@bjuganda7758]

Doronsmovies do worgen because they're my favorite race and great video keep it up.

[@juzment]

Love your videos

[@geigercourtier]

Tauren are very unique. I miss roaming around Mulgore feeling slow but empowered lol they’re so big. Their downside is their pacifism,it’s almost lazy. Otherwise they’d one of the most powerful presences in Azeroth

[@menalgharbwalsharq648]

If you take a potion of wild growth, the you have an idea of thr true size of a tauren. Then go to aardenweald, and you can see that tauren could could litteraly be some winter queen elite troops, they are almost the biggest minded beast that inhabit the realm

[@Eroll-dw8ex]

I think Taurens (from Kalimdor) are more Shamans than Druids since they forgot Cenarius teaching for a long time

[@sebastiankaczmarek635]

how do you explain Prist and Paladin taurens?

[@OctoberPawz]

To the Tauren, the moon is known as Mu'Sha, and the sun is An'She. Starting in late Wrath of the Lich King, and going into Cataclysm, a sect of Warriors and spiritual leaders had decided the tauren had been ignoring the Sun (An'she) for too long. From WoWpedia: "Tauren priests (known as Seers), and paladins (known as Sunwalkers) aim to revere the light of hope that the Earth Mother shines upon the world, through the use of An'she's power." It's heavily implied that in a literal sense, the tauren are in reality worshipping Elune and the Light, although they consider both to be the Earthmother.

[@ArpadSzijgyarto]

My first character was an orc warrior in TBC, but I've reached its limits very early. So I've created a Tauren Druid who have became my main character. So until I'd played with WoW, he hit the cap of lvl 85. I'd liked to play with him, because he could be a tank, a healer, a sorcerer or even a rogue. What else do you need? :D 4 in 1. It seems to me a very special offer for a fair price. ;)

[@KronosSupreme]

Great video again friend. I have an idea to pitch to maybe get people really interested in your channel but the work on the video will be extremely more demanding. Go back to the "how strong" are classes series but do a vs. video. Meaning a whole episode would be about a warlock vs. a mage using the strongest race combos based off of a natural hero of Azeroth. I am hoping something like this will create huge hype similar to the death battle series. Create straw polls and get the community very active. I really want your channel to flourish and feel something like this could really push your channel to the next level. I would also highly consider the Asmongold audience and maybe make your first video about warriors vs. another class. But man the editing on those videos will be really rough.

[@Cyberwings101]

you didn't explain how strong they really are

[@timdahlin2618]

What is the difference between high mountain tauren and normal ones? Iknow the blessing of cenarios gave them the antlers but are they stronger or weaker than normal tauren?

[@Doronsmovies]

They are just a tribe of tauren that split. The blessing definitely made them stronger than before, but whether they are stronger or weaker than other tauren tribes is debatable.

[@ozymandiaz1465]

There's a high elf who doesn't want Tauren as a part of their army because they would likely kill their own allies in melee combat than the enemy. You don't want to be beside a Tauren when it goes rampaging. Enemy or not.

[@bobthedestroyer6205]

That could happen with any race though

[@marcioa1811]

I wish the Taunka would be a playable. Maybe when we go back to Northrend for whatever reason.

[@thefilthyraptor4021]

Aren’t Tauren and trolls both native to azeroth

[@azurengamer9392]

Taurens, trolls, elves, goblins, and pandas are the only native races in the current lore, the corrupt titanforged races(humans, gnomes, dwarves, Gilnean worgens and orcs) and the dreanie are all technically aliens.

[@kennysimpson7177]

I read somewhere that blizzard changed the height of Taurens cause of the doors in the game they could not fit in one of the books it tells the Taurens Hieght is around 8 to 12 feet tall and 800 to 2000 pounds in wieght I would like to see that in the game one day love my Tauren ..... the Taurens hieght and gnomes hieght was changed in the alpha model of the game Taurens couldn't fit in doors and gnomes would get dismounted running threw puddles of water
