You must have a free character slot on the server you wish to create the Allied Race on
The maximum number of character slots on each server will be increased by 4, up to a maximum of 16 slots per server at a later time.

Comment by YongshiAnybody knows if you can race change to allied race after you unlock it?Comment by midderi hope we can, because i want change my Tauren Druid to Highmountain Tauren DruidComment by PutridpiranhaPlease tell me that the Lightforged draenei in the model viewer linked from this article aren't seriously this limited in customization options? Please tell me that there are more options in-game than is previewed in wowhead's model viewer...Comment by l3xxdIf we boost or race change our first character of an allied race does that make us ineligible to obtain the heritage armor?Comment by Tomwise101If we boost or race change our first character of an allied race does that make us ineligible to obtain the heritage armor?Comment by Maditatei would like to know that !Comment by Bloodvalor21If we boost or race change our first character of an allied race does that make us ineligible to obtain the heritage armor?Comment by l3xxdI should have phrased that better

I have a 110 Tauren Druid > Race change it to a High Mountain Tauren, Yes I know this toon will not earn the heritage armor

I make a level 20 High Mountain Tauren, with the plans to level THIS from 20 to 110 by questing. Will I be eligible to earn the heritage armor on THIS toon?Comment by JJRoarinIf I have the requirements completed, if I change a character's race, would I be able to choose one of the new allied races as a new race option?Comment by Bloodvalor21I should have phrased that better

I just came back to the game in October and haven't hit exalted with anything yet. HM and NB - the only two I'm interested in - are still about 6k away from exalted. Really hate rep grinds.Comment by munga23There are no quests or dialogue available at the embassy in Org? Am I missing something? I have the required achievements to start the quests but none are available.Comment by carlknochI'm not very pleased with the rep needed here. Mostly because the two reps for Horde are in leveling zones we've had from the start of the expansion and the Alliance are both reps that were introduced in the max level zone of Argus. Seems a little off to me.Comment by rikumaruThere are no quests or dialogue available at the embassy in Org? Am I missing something? I have the required achievements to start the quests but none are available.Comment by BarhahCool, I was hoping to come back to WoW and pre-order the new expansion then have my preorder bonus locked behind a rep grind. The faction I want didn't exist until the last major patch. I didn't play the last major patch. What an absolute crock, it's like I'm playing a knockoff Chinese MMO.Comment by BalmorThe reputation requirement is pure bull!@#$. Man, I already paid for my new content, I won't grind for weeks to enjoy what I just bought. I don't have time for this. This was a total dissapointment, I want my money back.Comment by wowveinsCool, I was hoping to come back to WoW and pre-order the new expansion then have my preorder bonus locked behind a rep grind.

Yeah you can. Race changing or boosting one Highmountain tauren won't affect your ability to get heritage armor if you level another one from 20 to 110. And the appearance is account wide so when you level one from 20 to 110 all your Highmountain tauren will be able to tmog the heritage armor.Comment by WarstainDamn. Was kinda hoping Void and Nightborn could be Demon Hunters
