Chosen/kotbs

Mara/wl

Sorc/bw

Dok/wp

depends what you aiming for playstyle wise

Chosen/kotbs just know how to guard (and guard swap in combat) and you better than majority of tanks, then learn how to CC also and read fights

Mara/wl ... wl easier more mobile and can cast pet on the move, mara requires more team support to really shine

Sorc/Bw ... will be squishier than other choices but alot of ranged damage, easy to do if experienced ... a tank or healer is probably better first pick if you are not experienced or confident to learn the game and different classes you face

Dok/wp ... lack mobility but easy to be tanky and provide alot of group sustain. Know how to detaunt and group heal and again you will be better than most healers sadly.

Order/destro?

Roll a healer to be incredibly useful at solo/pug/casual play. Roll a WL/mara to have fun dpsing. Roll a BW/Sorc to sit back and create numbers. Tanks are great for solo/small group/casual but you'll be desperately bored as kotbs and you'll want your 2h specc to be viable - 2h speccs are only really viable on destro.

Roll destro if you want to have fun. Roll order if you want to help out the ones getting smacked around, especially solo. Would recommend healing as order (you'll be more useful and you'll find eough groups not to get smacked around so easily). Anything else destro is better.

If you like SM keep in mind you will be snb and its a little clunky (and not the best). 2h requires a lot of grind before its viable (and even then a little weak). The good news is its not totally worthless, but still not great.
