Ive got to say, thats a tough question, and highly subjective I guess. Ive been working on my Pally and Warrior lately and I whined about warriors being a drag, but I admit it got much better once I got smart and specced Arms, and also as got higher level. Paladin has some cool buffs and its so so nice to not have to bandage and eat every fight. When all else fails - just bubble and run for your life. The rest of my alts or too low to really give an educated opinion, so Ill spare you. Of course, my main is a hunter and I love it. Im my own 1 man gang with Winnie the tank or PvP killer with Nikki and her lightning fast claws.
As for instances - Hunters are the most underrated class in my opinion and always get a bad rap. The versatility and fun of being a hunter may be the cause of that, as many people roll hunters for the wrong reason, and never master their skills as they should, therfore not contributing much to groups, and maybe even causing wipes by not controling their pets correctly. A common mistake by hunters and non hunters alike, is simply dismissing the pet, and losing the benefit of having it active. The pet is a valuable addition to dps, cc, off tank, and effectively makes a 5-man instance a 6-man run, especially with BM builds.
I can lay a freeze trap, Misdirect a group to a tank from 41 yards away, send my bear to off tank 1 mob, and use Distracting Shot on another to bring him to my trap. Keeping 2 mobs busy while taking out main target. And if the Sh@t hits the fan, I can stand to take a few heavy blows, and kite a mob all over town if needed.
Ive been all builds and had many pets. So far Beast Mastery is the most verstile and most fun, even at the expense of some (barely any) dps. I've got:
Great dps, even with BM build - but also a aggro reset thats best in the game, so I can dish out the damage without pulling aggro off tanks.
A little under 8k hp unbuffed both for me and pet.
Almost 7k mana pool.
Mail armor, which means I can take some serious hits and still survive, unlike the high dps but sissy dps casters.
41 yard range with nice burst damage.
Image Spirit Bond - 150 hp gain for me and pet every 10 seconds
ImageCan use almost any weapon, duel wield or 2 handed.
ImageWing Clip - slow a target, giving me time to get out of melee range and put on the big hits.
Image Aspect of the pack - increase party run speed great for saving time indoors where you cant mount.
Image Animal Handler - 8% speed increase while mounted - Awsome perk
Image Freezing trap - Underrated CC, I can chain freeze a mob in combat, basically forever, with my Beast Lord bonus I get a 4 sec reduction on CD and its even more effective than ever.
Image Ferocious Inspiration - Every time my pet crits (which is very often), all party members get a 3% increase in damage for 10 seconds.
ImageIntimidation - Next pet attack causes a high amount of threat and stuns the target for 3 seconds.
Image My favorite - Bestial Wrath and The Beast Within - My pet and I go into a rage (besides awsome graphics) and cause extra damage, and best of all - "Do not feel pity or remorse or fear, and cannot be stopped unless killed" I love it :twisted:
Image Misdirect - Awsome abitily that makes a hunter even better geared for pulling then was before - It directs the threat of my next 3 attacks to a target of my choice. Can be used in combat.
So that was my "Hunter is the best" rant. I hope its not just spam. Maybe it will do something in the way of getting other classes to know how to take advantage and also to appreciate having a hunter by their side.
I'd love to hear some other opinions, maybe ill roll a casterm, even tho its not really my cup of tea.

Druids are best , never gets boring to play !
You can do almost everything , but need to hold alot of additional gear for healing/dps
If you are feral druid , healing good only for group quests and easy instances .
DPS rate is very high , but no special stealth abilities like rogues . :cry:

Def a Warr...

He's the front-man of any assault and can take a good beating :D
He's very much a group toon and excels in group situations.
Soloing with a prot warr... :shock: not that easy :o

Love the fact that they can get plate. (looks really cool)

Back in the good old days before the new ranking system at one stage the top 9 toons were Warrs :P

i chooce for a shaman

can do alot of different things with it
healing / mellee / caster

all 3 are very fun to play atm i am resto it's not that bad it fun but outside the raids it sucks ellefants not high dps and i run fast out of mana if i try to dps
the chain heal is also very hard every body love's it :)

enhancement mellee only tryed this when i leveled from 9 to 58
personal i dont realy like it that much dmg is low heals are also low

elemental now this is realy mine thing extreem high dps heals are also better than that from enhancement people thing this is the pvp tree blizzard never said this is the pvp tree personal i think this is the pve side or els you wont do that high dmg and buff your party with some very nice stuff crit's / hit / mana / 101 extra dmg and healing buff
this is fun spec in alot of way's for pvp and pve
just combine a elemental with a boomkin and you will have pwnage dps.

and probely i will be elemetal to in next expansion.

DS.

Reasons to go Paladin:
We cant die. In raids we're usually the last people standing, unless a mage decides to use invisibility.

Healing: We have a decent healing prowess, we have the most mana efficient heal in the game (Flash of LIght), we get a 60% mana return on critting, and also our bigger heal, has an extra 6% crit chance. Then theres LoH, which when we are fully raid buffed means we can heal tanks for 10k at least, or if ur like me and get low on mana, you can heal yourself and get 900 mana back from using it. We get 10% mana back of each heal that is cast on us (does not work on self heals, or when at max life).

Buffing: We can buff for practically anything, and also save clothies, using either our 40 yard taunt, or using BoProt. We also have the judgement cycles we can do on bosses, so its helpful to have a Retridin in the raid to keep these up.

Tanking: We have the best aggro generation out of all the tanks, we have stupid amounts of damage reduction, and alot of shield block before collecting gear. We also get a shit-load of hp from talents, and do alot of dps when tanking. Also below 35% health we take 30% less damage.

Retri: In 25 man raids there should always be ONE retridin in the raid, so that the paladins can put up Judgement of Light, and Judgement of Wisdom, and the Retridin can put up Judment of Crusader, which massivly benefits Hunters and Melee DPS aswell as Tanks.

PVP: In arenas we are one of the most annoying classes in the world, because it takes a long time to get us down, and then when u get us low enough we can just bubble and heal back, we can also keep clothies alive from Melee dps for longer, due to BoProt. Also people over underestimate the damage that paladins can do, especially in the Shockadin spec, i went this spec for a week, and used to be annoying to kill in BGs, and also solo'd one WSG (although on the last flag i did bubble the carrier at the flag so i could take the glory hehe).

Anyway, thanks for reading/browsing/glancing and thinking what a wanka.

I've seen someone try once before.
It doesn't work very well because they can only agro one target at a time - no AOE taunts. I end up having to tank everything they missed with my pet, which doesn't really work.

you can do it, or you could, i dont know about it now.
ask the dude that spammed me for 5 mins calling me a cheat.
it was some rogue from auchnidoun, cant remember his name.

btw just realised how that reads, i meant i bubbled him as he was collecting the flag.

please say you didnt mean paladins dont have aoe taunts...
we are the best class at multimob tanking. Consecration (an 8 yard AoE) is how we establish aggro, and our initial pull, attacks 3 targets. and we have a taunt which taunts 3 mobs off of one person. We are the only class which generates aggro whilst being attacked, and because of this make a good tank for things like morogrim's adds and hydross' adds, oh and the dragon hawk boss in ZA.

OK, chris, you had the worst paladin tank ever if that was the case

I mean ffs paladin's pull 3 mobs as an initial pull and once something starts attacking a protadin its not gonna stop. A paladin is the only class that can tank 7 or 8 mobs effectivelly for any period of time

Consecrate + holy Shield + Ret Aura > thunderclap/swipe etc

A paladin makes such a good tank because of its ability to multi-mob tank, where it loses out is minorly in mitigation and the main reason you don't see many paladin tanks is because of idiots thinking they can't do it

eg. omg ffs u r paladin go holy ffsomgnooooob etc...

to be fair, resurection was a good pally tank, and he had the intelluctual capacity of a banana. It's just that you struggle to tank as a holy paladin, because u dont have any high aggro damage moves, and stuff, having said that i can tank 4 mobs at once as a holy paladin, but i cant heal the tank when doing so as i need to constantly "pulse tank", this means i lay down consecration, and continually cast holy light on my self. It's an incredibly good thing in pulls of more than 4 mobs, without CC, but its also incredibly risky.

If I ever manage to get my account reactivated, you'll have to take me to an instance and show me how it's done properly!
