Choosing a class....

So... i want to start playing in lordaeron and after playing nearly all classes that im interested in i came up with top three classes.
(Elemental Shaman.Affliction,Destruction Warlock. Feral Druid).
I'm asking for your help , because i dont want to invest time in class that is bad or underpowered.
Im mostly interested in 2s,3s
Please, tell me about every class this:
1.Dmg ( Burst , Sustained)
2.Survivability(Heals and defensive cds)
3.How good is it in 2s,3s
4. How fun ?(*/10)
I would HIGHLY appreciate your oppinions.
Thanks for reading

If anything I'd strongly suggest for you to find a class that really represents you and how you feel towards the game. Like what kind of play style do you wanna play, melee or caster? Do you want a pet or not? Would you be interested in Tanking or Healing later on, etc etc. I started out as a priest 10yrs ago and i'm still very fond of this class to this very day and i'd suggest you do the same. Toy with each class as you must, but truly find something you connect with and you'll be happier longer then if you were to play something that we suggest as our suggestions might be wrong and misguide you.

Anyways, that's all I have to say and I hope it does help to guide you as there is no right answer to your question, as they are just opinions.

Elemental Shaman is probably the easiest of the three you mentioned and revolves around lining up big cooldown, then warstomping and nuking the **** out of your target (if you're not playing tauren shaman for PvP, you're bad). Astral Shift and Glyph of Stoneclaw make Ele annoyingly hard to kill, added up by the significant heals you can pull because of the high spell power you have. You can also kite melee classes forever with the root from Earthbind, your Frost Shock and Ghost Wolf.

Destruction is quite similar to a mage and an ele shaman in terms of gameplay - a mage because it revolves around fire spells, an ele shaman because the "rotation" with Immolate+Conflagrate > Chaos Bolt is similar to the Flame Shock+Lava Burst. Nevertheless, it's not as sturdy as either of these and it relies on CC and voidwalker's Sacrifice to survive. It can dish out quite some damage though and is very decent for double-DPS comps or BGs, especially on lower arena seasons.

Affliction is considered the best warlock PvP spec because of Unstable Affliction's anti-dispel, the very high pressure the spec can put, and the very high sustain you have from Haunt and Drain Life heals. Afflock + SP was, and still is, a very strong spec in the game, which most healers simply cannot deal with, similar to SP + Frost Mage.

Feral Druids are the classic melee cleave partner, being able to deliver absurd amounts of damage, having instant Cyclone, roots, heals, and being able to easily train targets due to shape-shifting removing slows & roots. The key is not exposing yourself too much in cat form, so that you don't take too much unnecessary damage.

Affli is so strong in pvp.

Pick up enha shaman or druid. Both classes are awesome hybrids, so no matter what you're going to pick, ure not forced to stick with one spec. Both druid and shaman are doing awesome as a heal and dps. Both feral and enha are awesome in 2s and even better in 3s. Tho it is rly hard to play both of em, tho good enha shaman or feral is destroyin things.

and btw 3s are dead here.
