I like many other am planning on playing WoW Classic as i never got to play it in 04'. I want to play a class that will be versatile, so i can be competitive in PvP, and also useful in PvE (raid) content.
Everything else aside, i wont be able to dedicate 8+ hours a day to the game, but probably an average of about 25-35 hours a week. which means hitting 60 by around 5-8 weeks.
i think end-game for me is having the raid content complete, and then focusing 90% of my time on PvP getting BiS gear, and just having a blast doing that.

i would not mind at all playing the main tank, prot warrior but feel its low tier in PvP overall. however i do like Arms for PvP but then that leaves me low tier for PvE? let me know opinions on warrior Prot & Arms. (Maybe level prot till end game, then switch to arms for PvP focus as mentioned) This is the class i really have my eye on most.
Aff Lock looks Great in terms of both PvP and PvE, the fact you get a class mount so you dont have to spend gold on that, alot of pro's i see for this class seems overall a good pick.
Frost Mage, i played one of these during Cata for PvE (dungeons & Raiding) and had alot of fun, i had a decent time playing BG's as well but i felt underwhelmed at times. this class looks GREAT for PvP and also fairs pretty well for a DPS slot for PvE

from Cata -> MoP i played DK as my main, i LOVE playing DK in BG's, Arena's and DPS for dungeons, never did a raid on DK, but i was full conquest geared and had a BLAST playing him in Arenas and BG's

Let me know B)

mage is good all round.

plenty of slots for mages in raids. Good dps. Good PVP. Most importantly it is not too hard to lvl.

I cant really tell you much about how it is compared to today, i only played classic and a couple of months of TBC - only thing i know for sure is that classic is slower and simply different from the newer ones.

In vanilla , warrior and rogue get hard kited by alot of class wich anoy the shit out of me and the reason i never really enjoyed melee class .

Mage is pretty good in pvp and in pve but in raid you will be spaming frostbolt non stop lol until aq40 where you will be spaming fireball .

Warlock is my fav out of those 3 , more depth and more tool to do stuff , tons of utility etc .

Yeah mobility and such, but i have seen warriors in both world pvp and BG's straight up 1v2 & 1v3 people and winning .... those crits and then execute for big dmg. looks so fun

arms warrior will be tough to get a raid invite and port warrior is hard to pop on. Your best bet to raid and pvp is either the warlock or mage. Warlocks raid spec (sm/ruin) is really fun to do huge shadow bolt crits on people but is not super tanky in pvp. Respect are not cheap so you can't just be arms on the weekend and prot or fury for raid. Mage is probably the best bet to truly do both raid and pvp on a single char and enjoy it. That being said I would do warlock. They can really terrorize a bg and can be very rewarding once you know how to play.

tl;dr

go lock.
Will be one of the most needed classes in classic since everyone will roll melee or mage.
Lock is so good for so many reasons

free mount @lvl40
gods in pvp both bgs / premade / open world pvp
great in dungeons and raids

can use same spec for both pvp and pve and gold farming

super fun to play and alot of outplay potential.
