I've noticed that they don't get a plus in bows. I would think that since dwarves get a plus in guns, that NEs would get a plus in bows. I know that it is a measily 5 points, but still, i would trade wisp form for +5 in bows anyday...
I wouldn't. That +5 is useful for like your first 15 levels, which are a joke to get through, after that you're not going to notice much of a difference. I'd sooner have the wisp. Man you dunno how that lovely thing comes in handy. = )
Gah! Was afraid someone would bring up the wisp-form!
Okay I for one think that having an ability that is useful only after you have died (the one thing you are trying to avoid in this game) is rather pointless.
Frankly I would rather have a +5 in bows/daggers or heck tailoring.
Gotta let go of that D&D info ringing in your head. Everytime I hear Elf I pictures a Bow and Longsword affinity. Very few MMORPG's go by that principle though.
All good in the end though since i'll be playing mostly Horde.
My votes in for wisp-form. I tend to die ALOT whether I'm trying to avoid it or not. Wisp form is gnarly.

Hehe i would want the wisp form too if I died alot. fortunaly Dwarven Hunters do not die nearly as often as the weaker Elven hunters with half the HP and less strength.
Man, this isnt good for my decision-making process... im still trying to figure out which race/class to be and i was leaning towards NE Hunter =/ And all this negative stuff >.<
