Why is there any shame in it? It's more like regret for missing all the epic moments of vanilla and BC.

Class Balance is WotLK.

Its not a shame, was just asking, i was thinking of rolling an enhancer (playing pvp only), my i ask you which classes, besides rogues/warriors ofc, are viable for pvp?

Um...all classes and specs are viable in PvP. Even in PvE, just the "lesser specs" have to go into try hard mode to make them worthwhile. Vanilla isn't primarily about being the top DPS whore.

Truth - in retail we had raids with shadow priests, enhancement shammies, Boomkin, and feral druids. However, there will always be a preference for the more "main-stream" class/spec combos in high-end raiding and PvP.

You're asking them to do custom balance changes beyond what the game had for 1.12, which isn't going to happen. If you want Classic, that's what you're going to get.

If your main goal is pvp, then Enhance will work. You will need to put in some effort for gearing and making sure you drop the needed totems at the right time. Just because your Enhance doesn't mean you can't heal, sometimes not hitting that gnome can win a WSG when you throw a heal on your flag carrier.

Nope. DKs and Paladins were horribly broken then. All WoW expansions have a period of most OP class or most OP spec. It's impossible to balance them all perfectly. That's just how it is, always has been, and always will be.
Same thing goes for all RPGs or games where you choose different classes / characters in all video games or board games ever made and it will never change. Even RTS games have a huge amount of imbalance here and there.
And honestly, if everything was balanced, it would a dreadfully boring experience with no spice at all.
