need help deciding a class

Just like when the game first started I am once again torn with what dark elf class to play. Before WAR officially closed I had played all 4 classes and enjoyed them all. Now I am back at square one so I thought I would ask the community.
What class is most needed for RvR? Dont say play what I enjoy because all 4 were enjoyable in their own way.
I am typically a solo player until I find a PUG or a guild to call home.
Looking for thoughts and input and maybe any guilds looking for a new player willing to play any role(as a dark elf)

Either DOK or BG as they are both in constant need and both perform well solo.

I was considering those but wasn't sure how in demand they would be compared to other races. I know being a tank or dedicated healer puts you in high demand in both rvr and sc.
I am leaning for DoK currently

If it helps: there's about 30000million DOKs on the server and about 2 BGs

Well that does make a big difference. how many black Orcs and Chosen are there though?

Blackguard, Magus and Shaman are probably the least played classes.

Unfortunate yes those 3 are the least played becuase they are weaker than their other archtypes counter parts
DoK is still the most high demand between BG and DoK
If your going to play solo then perhaps consider a WE she is a dam good solo class and good in parties to... People just prefer x2 maras more

Are you playing with anyone? If you are on your own, you might want a more solo friendly class. Defensive black guard, witch elf, and DPS DOK are pretty good at soloing. I don't think anyone can say sorcerer is good at soloing. Of those 3, I think witch elf is in a bad state in terms of 'group' or 'rvr' play. So in this situation I'd recommend blackguard or DoK.
If you are going to be playing primarily in a group, play whatever works best in existing compositions.

I would generally say I play solo. Unless I get picked up by a guild I would play solo or maybe with a random group for PQs.
I have soloed each dark elf to 40, with the exception of pvp of course. Of them DoK was by far the easiest and most sustained survival. A sorcerer is doable but requires much more time
