I posted this on the WOW.com boards, but I'd like to get your opinion also (I have time cause I'm bored at work too). So here the cut and paste question.

I have here my 56 DK human with 1 bubble to 57 and the more I think about it I wish I had choosen a Draenei, but reading through the forums here and else where that Humans got it good for DPS. My question is why is that the general consensus? Hit > expertise in my opinion. A free heal that scales with AP if I remember correctly. What would make a human so much better that people say human-night elf-dwarf-gnome-dreanei (not neccessarily in that order, but human, first dreanei last) for DPS. These 2 are my favorite races in the game, so switching won't matter to fit my playstyle and what I prefer.

So please if someone could help me with the reasoning for this thought process and give me and explaination to why humans are superior I would be very grateful.

Thank you.

Stick with human, extra damage with swords plus diplomacy make it a good choice, plus they look better.
But at the end of the day it's what you like that is the best.

Not to be rude, but your opinion is mathematically wrong. Expertise is point-for-point much more effective for DPS, as well as being somewhat rarer on gear and harder to itemize for. The draenei HoT also matters much less when DKs get so many abilities to regenerate health. While I'm not sure I would necessarily put draenei in last place, they're definitely behind humans for DPS. That being said, it's whichever one you can stand to stare at; and if that's equal, you want to be a human.

Thats what I was looking for. I am not really sure about expertise not ever using it on my hunter. My only question would be with the Hit% going towards spell hit too, would that even matter. My biggest thing was that I won't always be using a sword and from what I saw with the expertise was the .75% less chance to be parried etc. But this is why I ask these things. However after all is said and done I think I am gonna switch to draenei, and keep my human as a Paladin.
