With a double unity, any of the top 20 rated builds for any class on Diablofans that aren't pure support will do.
Every class has up to several builds (each with several variations for playstyle) that work. The monk that builds around lots of cooldown reduction and near-permanent epiphany with the 50% damage reduction rune should give you what you want. There are several ways to build it depending on your gear. I'm running a build that works great in groups for clearing trash, but I am useless against a rift guardian on solo. But I always play with friends and public so I've built it that way to be the most efficient in my preferred style of playing.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and suggest an advice for you. A good way to snare in your choices is to start with the class itself. Barbarian, Crusader and Monk fit your preferred category. The three classes are designed differently. From a purely aesthetic and lore-oriented point of view, which of the classes appeal to you? Do you want to be a savage barbarian that whirlwinds and leaps and charges with earthquakes and battle cries? Or does it fit more with your fantasy to be a lightning quick monk that controls the battlefield with stuns and dashes and teleports and cyclone strikes and chain explosions? Or do you want to be a steamrolling knight in armor that smites your enemies in the name of the holy light? I'm purposely being cheesy, but this is the first question you should think about. If you narrow it down to a class, it's easier to give you some suggestions. But as your question stands now, I'd have to link to 30 different builds with explanations and etc. Just a lot of work.
Or come to think of it I could've just said "all three of the melee classes will give you what you want". Lol. Doh! But they will, when you get the right gear.
@Preach: the main things I care about for my playstyle atm...is movement speed/ quick control of battlefield...AND being tough to be killed, not downed for a second-long distraction o a bad click.
so, swiftness and good survivabiliity with a dps role (not tank)
ps: mmm maybe monk's lore and animations are quite interesting IMHO, but in d3 it's more a matter of role/class gameplay/ best builds than aesthetics ^^
hope there will be some graphic features for customizing char aspect (beard, moustache, hairstyle, etc..T.T)

Sounds like you are describing monk, probably should take a look at the raiment set build's for 2.2. That said I voted for Barb because they look really fun this patch.
the easiest tanky class i've played not including the WD is a crusader... the standard 100% uptime condemn build allows you to run through T5 and T6 simply casting condemn while staying moving, and killing everything in 1-2 casts... i haven't pushed higher than GR30 on it, because i didn't quite have my gear where i wanted it to where i could be confident enough to run around anything higher... but that seems the best imo... rift guards were dying extremely fast, too, which i think is probably better for higher GRs, since the guardian is one of the main issues in higher GRs... the secret to this build is the 100% uptime, or damn near close to 100% uptime akarat's champion...
I played DH for a long time, as a typical DPS-squishy-glasscannon build.
But i feel a little bored about staying ranged, dying with a single hit, spinning all around maps avoiding aoe's and anything else.
Can you suggest me a melee DPS-build/class I can deliver a sufficient DPS but stop worrying about dying 30times a minute in rifts/ 35+ grifts?
or also a "off-tank"... (no WD as I already have a decent one in non-season)

Seemingly there is no builds on diablofans for PTR/2.2
2.1.2 builds are still valid?
