There's a really good population graphs site here you can check out:
https://maartenson.net/ror_graph.html
The Fortnightly graph will give you a good indicator of which side has the population advantage in general. (Currently Destro outnumbers for most of the day; perhaps in future months / next year this could swing the other direction.)
Whichever side you play, Tanks that know how to guard properly and Healers that know how to heal / res are a godsend, in my opinion.

Thanks. We are going for order. I loved being a shaman before. So i guess it will be a Rune Priest now. My friend loves his chosen, so i guess we are healer and tank again. Hopefully there are active PVP guilds. Thats all we want

As has been said before by I and others on many many occasions over the years, play the class you most enjoy.
Have fun playing this
GAME.
If others here get all bent out of shape over which side you play or how you play your toons on your account then they lead sad pitiful lives and rightfully should be ignored.
Everyone have a nice day.

I am aware much debate concerning the topic of leveling has occurred of late, however sincerely, the time investment and difficulty level involved with grinding a toon to RR80 is no where near that of days gone by. You are starting from scratch anyway, so regardless of toon the size of the mountain to be scaled is essentially the same.

don't listen to the xreaming rat

You win the internet.

Peoples, who loves Shaman - will never say "before" or " I go for Order "

Shaman's mirror career is Archmage.I think you should choose Archmage.
