Druid:

Druids are (just like in WoW) the jacks of all trades. The combination of rejuvenation, healing touch and regrowth offers both healing over time, and on-demand healing. Moonfire on multiple targets, combined with the powerful spell Hurricane offers a rather strong AoE damage, and wrath spam combined with MoP-styled starsurge procs can result in some moments of godly burst. On top of all of this, innervate can restore your precious mana when you are in a real pickle.

Death Knight:

Death knights are very suited for tanking (and by this playing alone). They have a very good self healing over time through a the health leach effect on blood plague, and a powerful healing on demand with rune tap. They also have armor penetrating, single target target damage with frost strike, and a single target nuke with obliterate. Blood boil is excelent for knocking enemies away and spreading debuffs between them at the same time, while howling blast can be used to slow down an entire group of enemies. On top of this great AoE damage, they can spread their frost fever like it was ebola with the necrotic plague talent. If this overloaded kit is not enough to get you out of trouble, you have a last ace up your sleeve: remorseless winter. Remorseless winter will slow down all enemies around you, and deal good damage every tick as long the effect is active. The death knights only weakness is range, that is countered quite well with death grip, a spell that pools what it hits to the death knight.

Warlock:

Channeling the demonic powers, warlocks are suited for one thing, and one thing only, destruction! Pick between debuffing multiple enemies with an array of damage over time abilities and watch them all melt, or burst them down with both single target and AoE destructive fire spells. If neither of these options sounded appealing, you could always grab a runeblade and pretend that you are a highly mobile death knight instead. In addition to being the masters destruction, they have a strong self healing with the siphon life talent, and last but not least, the healthstone - a conjured consumable that restores health to you or your friend.

Warrior:

For those who enjoyed diamon armor and weapons in regular minecraft, please consider the warrior. Equip tanky gear and a huge weapon, charge to your enemies and strike them down, while you gain rage at the same time. The rage can be consumed in order to execute an almost dead target, make a whirlwind of steal, or stomp the ground pretty damn hard, to slow enemies around you. This class has excelent damage and mobility, but the self healing is rather weak. Pairs very well up with a healer!

Priest:

An uncomplete class, that currently offers great healing, both single target and AoE, some healing over time, pluss an occasional shielding spell. It also brings some solid AoE damage to the table with various debuffs, some that deals damage, some that drains health, and some that hurts everything around the affected enemy. If you are not convinced yet, the priests great utility might do the job. Levitate lets you fly around for a few seconds in creative mode, and when you reach your destination, you can pull your friend to you with leap of faith.

Rogue:

This was the last class I made, when I wanted to truly change the combat in minecraft. If have the correct gear (dagger and leather/cloth armor), you turn invisible (stealth) when sneaking, if you have not participated in combat for at least six seconds. While stealthed, you move extremely slow, but mobs cannot see you. This can be used to get behind the most critical enemy, so you can land the powerful backstab ability on it. Backstab deals high damage, that is guaranteed to crit if used from stealth. After taking out the VIP target, you can jump to the second most critical target with shadow step, and backstab that one as well. Now it might be time to keep fighting, either by running behind enemies and backstabbing them, or just keep hitting them with sinister strike. Either way, you will accumulate some combo points, which increases the damage on your eviscerate ability, or increases the stun duration on cheap shot. The crazy thing is that this is not even what makes the class unique. Rogues are obviously cheating, because they have more than four aces up their sleeves. If they find themself trouble, they can use evasion to evade physical hits, cloak of shadows to remove magical effects and resist magic for a few seconds, and crimson vial to keep their health at max. If this is not enough, why not just say **** it, blind your oponent, vanish, then sap some poor guy, and run away with sprint?
