Tauren Druid - My first character in April 2005, happy 11th anniversary to me, yay me. The character is deleted and long gone due to bad talent decisions, meaning I had to pay more gold than I could ever grind at the time. This was before the gold cost would reduce itself again every month and before anyone was aware of how much the game would change. It was not common sense to people to think "ah well, maybe it'll change in the future to allow us to change talents" and there was no deleted character recovery option, soo.. Shamefully my first character ever is gone. However I did create a new tauren druid and levelled him up and he rocked the Alliance's asses in pvp for a while. Then later in his life he somehow evolved into a night elf via an ancient magic called 'faction change' and he still exists today as a level 90 night elf balance druid, ex feral/bear druid. I have another tauren druid at level 100 now who is geared all through mythic dungeons, I plan on having him be my main in Legion. Him or his night elf alter ego.. I'm a faction schizo, sorry.
Surprise they added a deleted character recovery option and I believe it applies to old characters as well as long as they are above level 10, not 100% sure though
As a Tauren Brewmaster, I am happy to hear that the Tauren were all once the Yaungol, making my character more fitting to the lore of the game then i once assumed. I watched both the "how to roleplay a Tauren" and "how to roleplay a monk" videos but i still find it a bit difficult to develop my character. It doesn't help that i have transmogged my helm to "Tsanga's Helm" and shoulders to "Hide of Chromaggus" because I really like the colors. Even though the azure feather are fitting for a Tauren, It makes me look a lot more like a shaman or a druid then a monk. It doesn't help that the weapon and off-hand i like visually really make me look like a WC3 "spirit walker". Which is a look i really enjoy, but again, isn't monk-like at all! Watching your lore videos made me play wow again, much more invested in the story this time, so thanks!
+Mickey the Maniac Glad it helps. Even though they yaungol as far as we know weren't monks until recently at least we know that they fought alongside monks more than 10k years ago.
+Erectile Reptile That's great to hear, glad it helps. The game in general can tell a great story but it takes a lot longer to finish various questlines.
Doronsmovies the way i have always played made it so i need to be getting as much exp as i can for minimal time i can never stop returning to my primal instincts to skip quest text lol
@@mrbling333 super late reply but to be honest I feel like so much quest text is filler that doesn’t really teach anything it’s easy to miss it when something useful shows up
if I remember corectly, the Taurens are more ancient than even Cenarius himself, since they were the ones who were hunting Malorne,the god of nature, and after they surrownded him, Malorne cried for Elune's help, thus her in exchange of her help,demanding a son whit Malorne,Cenarius.

We Tauren have always held a great respect for the works of the Earthmother 😢 Cairne Bloodhoof
Im surprised the Tauren didn't hold a massive grudge towards the orcs after they killed Cenarius...Bliz going back and retckoning without consulting Warcraft 3 again...
i believe they settled in a similar manner as the tauren, following under cenarius. Then Huln Highmountain recieved a blessing from an ancient beast while defending from the legion giving him the moose like antlers. When he returned home they named it after him and his people from then on our also had the antlers.
If this is what is said in the Chronicles, than there is a huge mistake in MOP, because Lorewalker Cho tells the story of where the Yaungol came from, and it was a group of Tauren that traveled to Pandaria and got trapped there when it was enveloped in mist.
+Josh Gamauf "Lorewalker Cho says: Long ago, a group of sturdy nomad hunters wandered the world. By a stroke of fate, they were here in Pandaria when the Sundering split apart the continents of Azeroth. The wanders found themselves trapped in the Townlong Steppes, a harsh and dangerous land." It' imprecise but not absolutely retconned. The Yaungol were indeed nomad hunters and they got trapped in Pandaria. It's understandable since that happened 10.000 freaking years in the past. Do you know exactly what was going on in your hometown during that time? No, nor I do, and since most of the pandaren knowledge it's transfered orally, it's logical to assume that some part of it may have been lost or altered.
... my only issue with this video is in the game you see from Lore Cho that Tauren come down to Pandaria and after the sundering turned onto yungols due to the harsh environment. And they didnt learn Druidism until the fight on mount Hyjal (the first legion invasion on azoroth) after Runetotem saw the Nightelves fight with such ferocity that he ask Cernarus to teach him the way of the druid. (he was a high shamman at the time). would love the source for this vid though.
@@derbar1401 Before the Pagan people there were 'insert here' people. And before those 'insert here' people there were also 'insert here' people! Seriously now, this kind of ideology is dumb and the fact that people are bringing this kind of /pol/ shitbaggery into a Warcraft lore video makes me sick.
Danto, you sound like a race supremacist who's trying to pose as a victim. Which seems like the favored cowardly liar strategy these days. Your statement is fucking ridiculous. If you have to lie to promote your ideology, your ideology ain't worth shit.
@@ninja180700 that's the whole point, there were always people with different traditions as there are races in WoW with different ones. Yet they manage to try to work together. If you think about it the most xenophobic races in Azeroth are Elves and Humans and that says much.
What about ordos? Hell, what about how they were the first druids before even the night elves? what about their weird history with the elven gods other than cenarius? Hunting cenarius father malorne, being hunted by goldrin. The reverence of Mu'sha and An'she. all sorts of stuff.
I feel like this was rushed.You havent talked about highmountain tauren at all or are you avoiding the spoilers? Dunno if you saw about that one hell of an epic tauren that marched alone in war of the ancients.
+IamSurfy It's not rushed, this is just the new lore from the Chronicle book. The highmountain tauren are just a tribe of tauren. My point of this video is to discuss the sub-races of the yaungol (yaungol, tauren, taunka).
+lotrbfme2rotwkrj The original race is called the yaungol. If you are referring to the Highmountain tribe, they are just a tribe of the tauren that settled around central Kalimdor. Keep in mind that when this split happened the world was still one and the entire united continent was called Kalimdor. 10-12k years after that especially with the sundering many other splits could have happened.
+Doronsmovies Great video, as usual. You're an amazing content creator. Thank you for making these videos for us. You are a big pillar in the WoW community!
+Talendril Silverleaf How'd you get that impression? I only used the few shots of a tauren with a gun just because I couldn't find another more suitable npc.
+Filip Borec Probably not because not much of their lore has changed with the Chronicle. However you can check out my Chronicle summary as I briefly explain the origin of the trolls and their war with the Aqir.
So many animal races... where are all the humanoid races!? Don’t get me wrong, I love the Tauren and whatnot, but my favorite races are the Orcs and Draenei
+Jeffery O'Crowley Not sure about that. I'm not amazing at the game plus I currently want to focus on covering as much lore as possible about the upcoming books and things that will happen in Legion.
+sluk husky Might do another custom campaign type thing in the future, but don't have anything in mind right now as I'm really focused on covering all of the new lore.
You skipped all the WarCraft 3 part of the Taurens, maybe because it was not important for the race itself, or maybe because this video was not about the political aspect of the race itself
+Zergskorpyon Brood Because the video is just about the Origin of the tauren, not their entire lore. I covered a big part of their lore in my how to roleplay a tauren.
Like this race and if they were real areas like Hershey & Lancaster Pennsylvania Dauphin & Lancaster Counties would have the female of this race being milked out in order to make Turkey Hill ice cream and Hershey chocolate same can be said for West Midlands Warwickshire & Staffordshire of their population of this race 🐮🐄🐂 milked for Cadbury chocolate in Bournville
My question is ofcourse, why aren't there Yaungol in the eastern kingdoms? The easiest answer is that they never traveled east. But ignoring that. Did there "betrayal" against the Mogu, suffer the hate of the trolls and where hunted to extinction? Was part of there dna used to create the Gnolls causing them to lose against them in the long run. Did they have to compete with humans for the few safe lands in a losing battle. .
is it okay if i use this for the www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTaurencraft/ sub?more info about tauren lore is welcome. ps:sorry to bother you so much, i just want to get these subs finished.
+Jonathan Fossum Currently the origin mini series I'm doing is mainly on the new lore that was explained in the new Chronicle book. If you are interested in specific race origin you can check out my race rp guides. Even if you don't RP i spend most of the video covering race lore.

did some one say Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker!!!!?!?!
+killkreeth lockjaw what the hell is thunderfury blessed blade of the wind seeker?
+Aron Johansson
HEY GUYS! This casual doesn't know what [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker] is!
+Brandon Schemers THUNDERFURY!!!!??!?!!????!!!?¿?!!???!!!!!!!!!
Wait are we talking about Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker?
so... 3 different races of taurens? oh my
4 if you count the high mountain tuarens.
AzurenGamer they are normal tauren and literally only have antlers instead of horns
5 if you count the Feltotem as their own sub-species.
elgato9o Taunka are my fav
For any who don't know, Taunka is a play on the Lakota word Tatanka which means Buffalo bull, or also a great Buffalo spirit
I really like your videos and I think you are one of the best youtube-ers that discuss Warcraft , keep up the great work !
+Metalshewolf83 Thank you very much, I appreciate it. :)
always loved taurens :)
I’ve never seen an old world map like that. That’s awesome!
Keep up the good work man! Your vids are awesome :)
+Dylan Wong Thank you, I appreciate it. :)
I just love your accent especially when you say your intro
Dude your accent makes this videos seems like a mysterious documentaries about foreign history. You had storytelling talent man keep it up.
Doron, I really appreciate your videos. Im from brazil, and you talking slowly really helped me !! Thanks a lot man, keep the excelent work o/
+Matt Bonamin Thank you, I'm glad it helps. :)
BEST RACE EVER!
I agree my second favourite race is the dwarves
Haven't commented in awhile but the quality is really going up. Good work man.
+PinkDevilFish Thanks man, I appreciate it. :)
You forgot the Highmountain Tauren D: Still a great video though! I've always loved Tauren lore, what little they had.
So where does the Highmountain history come in here?
i believe they settled in a similar manner as the tauren, following under cenarius. Then Huln Highmountain recieved a blessing from an ancient beast while defending from the legion giving him the moose like antlers. When he returned home they named it after him and his people from then on our also had the antlers.
For some reason i always figured the Tauren are the fleshy version of the Mogu. Just like how humans and dwarves also came from stone creatures.
Tauren are one of the coolest races in the horde and the game. The biggest reason why I tried horde as an alliance guy
Can't go wrong with steak...

Taurens are pretty interesting. I wish I could do something with these without having to worry about copywriting.

Very true, just I remember when you watch the little scene that Cho shows you when telling the story, it shows Tauren as the nomads.
Plainsrunning need to come back for Taurens ;)

Talk about the Half-Breed.
Subtitles were automatically turned on when I began the video. Does Google think he is not talking English? xD
Google is racist
He personally writes the subtitles to be polite haha, but yeah he really doesn't need them
"They were banned from discussing their heritage" hmm kinda like how Europe is now...
DEUS VULT!

So why did the taunka decide to go that far north? Also why are they no longer impacted by the temper problems?
Tauren were my favorite since Warcraft 3
where did that race originate from? Like how did the very first Tauren came to existence after sealing the old gods?
fun fact tauren are older than the elves, and have possibly been around as long as the trolls
Make an update with the Highmountain tribes too.
highmountain tauren joined the group
You seem way more energetic in your newer videos :D
+Bennito Servian Thanks. I actually took a quick course in voice overs recently, so looks like there is some progress. :)
I wonder if the Tauren can be used to build a Monk character.
from what xalatath hints at. the tauren have a old god conection
give me damn taunka's next allied race!!
I am wondering your views of illidan what do you think he will do? will he go back to outland
What about the Earth Mother?
I feel like this was rushed.You havent talked about highmountain tauren at all or are you avoiding the spoilers?

I think there is a new race of tauren in broken isles

+Doronsmovies I always wondered what the difference is between Kalimdor (pre sundering) and Pangea?
+Jesper Andersen I'm not sure what you are referring to. Kalimdor was pretty much the name of the mega continent, meaning Land of Eternal Starlight.
I love playing a Tauren on WOW.
Worgens?
+Akke Check out this video, it will explain everything. ruclips.net/video/SzgRzaPg7lk/видео.html
oki thx:D
+Doronsmovies Great video, as usual. You're an amazing content creator. Thank you for making these videos for us. You are a big pillar in the WoW community!
Went back to this video, why did they add moose people when these, more varied, guys exist?
I really hoped that Yaungol would become an allied race in BfA
Please make a remake of all the race lore videos.
Question, how did Tauren hunters adapt to guns so quickly and were not able to wield bows very well?
+Talendril Silverleaf How'd you get that impression? I only used the few shots of a tauren with a gun just because I couldn't find another more suitable npc.
+Doronsmovies but they start out with guns instead of bows unlike other horde races.
+Talendril Silverleaf I think mostly because their body type does not match the finesse it requires to wield a bow, preferring hand canons and such.
+Talendril Silverleaf They start with a bow nowadays, but they did used to start with a gun, yeah. I have questioned this myself.
+Emersed Rhyme but dwarves invented the firearm, right?
Thanks for the good video. :-)
will you make origins of the trolls to?
+Filip Borec Probably not because not much of their lore has changed with the Chronicle. However you can check out my Chronicle summary as I briefly explain the origin of the trolls and their war with the Aqir.
is it just me or the lore of warcraft has changed significantly i'll go with the old lore
It started with a lonely farmer and her trusty cow....
Cow is love. Cow is life.
my favourite race :)
So the only real original races that may have evolved without to much interferece from the Titans are the Trolls and the Yaungol?
What about highmountain tauren? Anyway great vid :)
Trolls ? Please
So many animal races... where are all the humanoid races!? Don’t get me wrong, I love the Tauren and whatnot, but my favorite races are the Orcs and Draenei
Amicable I always thought Tauren are the most badass thing ever, 8 foot tall bipedal bulls wielding fkn tree trunks as weapons 😥😍
What? Taurens were created on Pandaria? That doesn't make sense
J P no they were not, they changed there name to taurens in pandaria
J P Tauren as we know them today were created in Pandaria before the sundering.
Thanks :)
Can you do a video about the elemental lords pls?:D
+Dragut Cristian Good idea
+Dragut Cristian I have covered them, check out my Chronicle summary, especially the first part. Also check out the Black Empire video I did.
leeeeets get rooooooight INTO THE LOOOOOORE!!!
Tauren Spirit walker: face the wrath of my moo of fury!
Meeeeeeooooooooooooo....
so they were tauren from the beginning ?
and how about the origin of the humans ?
not the orgin. how did they come of existence? every race has this back story
?from where came high mountain tauren
+אילן IL They are just a tribe of the tauren.
+Doronsmovies
You said that all the tauren are renuiting once again did the high mountain tauren to
Ever notice how they don’t have any female Yaungol models?
High mountain tho
Lore on cenarius?
+TheAlmighty WubWubs I have an old lore lesson but might do something in the future if anything happens with him in Legion.
Lore: Vyrkul loves cows. End
they escaped from lordaeron farms
So taurens come from Pandaria ??
speed up the video to 1.25 for a normal voice :)
Doron you should do an iron man challange
+Jeffery O'Crowley Not sure about that. I'm not amazing at the game plus I currently want to focus on covering as much lore as possible about the upcoming books and things that will happen in Legion.
taunka would be a way better race to be aded at bfa than the higmountain tauren
wolololer not really considering we haven't been to northrend in so many years
Without furdur AhH-DuWeWww
why is there no one with a normal voice doing lore videos?
origin of the orcs?
And Highmountain

do you know nobbel

.
But why taurens decide's to join horde ?
+Marco ℳ It's explained in Warcraft 3. Mainly because Thrall helped them retake Mulgore and defend from the centaur.
because they stumbles upon eachother with common goals, and humans alliance were afraid of them
