Mage - never really liked casters but is oddly tempting me. Don't know anything about any of their specs.
-Arcane: has the easiest spell rotations so far good nice burst damage.
-Fire: you get to blow things up, nuff said
-Frost: has a Water Elemental as a pet that lasts until died or dismissed. Best defenses (Ice Barrier) and very very high damage on frozen targets (the elemental also freezes stuff). Also the best spec for PvP.
Druid - love versatility. How easily can you switch roles despite spec? Healing dps tank
you need different sets of gear for each spec as every spec takes advantage of different stats (say strength, stamina, armor for tank, intellect, spirit for healer etc)
Lock - possibly demonology as a pet class. How well do they fillthat role?
Warlocks always have a pet around:
-Destruction warlocks benefit most from Imps (they make some high damage abilities instant on occasion).
-Affliction warlocks don't really need anything, but i usually had a felhound for extra mana. they just curse enemies, drain their life and let them to rot.
-Demonologists are the only ones that can use the Felguard demon. A pretty strong melee demon (that thing hits like a warrior). They also have a demon form for like 20 sec that increased spell damage done, armor and gives 2 unique abilities. Demonology is easymode leveling.
-Warrior: nice, 2 role class, became somewhat harder, though with recent changes even though it's still ok to dps. tanking is relatively hard now. - a little expensive to level in terms of gear and repairs. also very gear dependent to be effective.
-Mage: one of the classes with the least downtime. pure dps, with variety in leveling depending on spec. one of the classes i'd suggest to start with.
-Priest: healer/dps class. as a healer you get in dungeons almost instantly and that's always nice. pretty decent in dps while soloing too.
-Hunter: THE easiest to level but can end up boring since in most cases your pet can do all the job with you supporting it from the range.
-Warlock: interesting dark caster. good dps no matter what spec, affliction or demonology make sure there's like no downtime at all either. -suggested
-Druid: does everything really (spell dps, healing, tanking, melee dps). very good utility class, i'm going to make a worgen druid myself after i level my mage to 85.
-Rogue: sneaky son of a *****. dps, you'll love it if you like to play with positioning.
-Death Knight: one of those i wouldn't suggest. while it's a very strong class (hero class even) you start at lvl 55 (not allowed to make one unless you have a character at 55 or higher either). You'd miss all the worgen starting area quests which would be a shame considering Blizzard made an awesome job with the old world leveling.
