Earthen Allied Race Dances in WoW: The War Within
Historically,allied races inWorld of Warcraftdon’t always get new dance emotes. Some, like the Zandalari Trolls and Kul Tiran Humans, did get their own unique dances, as they use completely different models from any existing race. On the contrary, races like Mag’har Orcs, Nightbourne, Void Elves, and Dark Iron Dwarves share the same dances as the races they are based off of. Earthen use the same skeletons as their Dwarf cousins, so the fact they actually get a unique dance is an exciting detail.
Needless to say, fans got a kick out of these dance emotes. While many of the existingWorld of Warcraftraces have some iconic dances, such as the male Goblin’s version of “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” or the male Orc’s “U Can’t Touch This,” some believe the Earthen dances might be the best ones yet.
In order tounlock the Earthen Allied Race inWorld of Warcraft: The War Within, players will have to complete each zone’s main story, the endgame campaign, and a handful of sidequests around Khaz Algar. It may take a few weeks for some of these chapters to become available afterThe War Withinlaunches, but fans won’t have to wait long to make their Earthen and enjoy these incredible new dances.
