Hey guys! So, it's been a while since i've made an alt and feel like starting something fresh, a dps class per say as i usually play healers! So i've been mseeing around on the public beta and have narrowed it down to three, Either Windwalker monk, Destruction warlock or enhancement shaman, It'd be nice if you guys could tell me the pros and cons of these classes MAINLY IN PVP EG. Damage output, survivability etc. Also please don't say "Play what ever class you enjoy" as i seem to enjoy all of the at the moment.
Well that's it from me! So fire away!

Windwalker is supposedly pretty strong at the moment. I'd feel bad recommending the spec due to how obnoxious monks are to fight against, though. Warlocks also seem decent; I've heard all three specs are viable to high ratings but I don't see many actually playing destruction at the moment (I believe that is down to other factors than the relative strength of destruction as a spec) - however, if you're not specifically attracted to destruction you will almost certainly have at least one good spec in every season regardless of how the balance pendulum swings.
Nothing against enhancement shamans but the spec has been fairly weak historically. No clue how they are right now, you can almost certainly make it work, but it's one of the least reliably viable specs for higher ratings if you're in it for the long haul.
I'd personally recommend warlock. Windwalker would let you play another role as offspec, in case you want some variety or just fast lfr/lfd queues. If you want some more indepth / reliable recommendations (at least if you're somewhat competent and looking to push for something a bit more respectable than just collecting points with trade pickups at 1500) you might want to try ArenaJunkies.
Disclaimer(s): I don't actively PvP. "Viable" in this context refers to high ratings.
