Right now im leveling my new Mage as my main, and it seems like it will be fun in PvP as Arcane later on, but a tad lacking in raids compared to the other specs. Will this be an issue or are most people not that picky endgame?
Also, I was considering leveling a healer if one was simplified enough. I had a Priest and it was fun for awhile, but I felt far too squishy to survive long enough to help in PvP, even if I was loved in instances.
Question is, which do the populace here think is the most fun and useful endgame in both raiding and PvP/BGs? I enjoy little things from both sides such as making food, portals for everyone for free and Slow Fall as a Mage, fun skills we'll say. While I also enjoy healing, Priest only caught my attention with a few token skills such as Levitate and Mind Control, both of which I could live without. Would Druid have been a safer bet?
Summary: I'm looking for a comparison between the most unstoppable/Best Surviving class in PvP situations while still holding utility in groups.
Edit: Any DPS or Healing class is fine, I just prefer mobility and the ability to mix things up. I liked my 62 Shaman for awhile after the buffs, but they seem to be the least mobile of all the healers and was considering Druid over it, if not for a DPS.

For ultimate flexibility Druids are probably the way to go.
Caster DPS, melee DPS, tank, healer, flag runner, stealth capping, arena, they can do the lot.
The downside is maintaining 4+ gear sets and the 50g/time re-spec cost once you've done it a few times.

Druid has always sounded nice, but I don't like the idea of always respeccing just to do a different task/role. I would prefer to just master one with a few small perks on the side such as healing or DPS. Druids seem kind of weak in regards to PvP, but Resto is supposedly one of the most mobile healers so I was interested.
Whats the lowdown on Arms Warriors, Rogues, and Destro Locks? All seem pretty powerful and mobile. I love burst damage and abilities to take control of a situation like Disarming effects and Mind Control/Stuns.
Ruled out: Protection specs, Hunter,Moonkin Druid.

Affliction 'locks are much more mobile than Destro, most of their DoTs are instant cast, you don't even need to be facing your opponent! Their CC is also better than other 'lock specs, with an instant Howl of Terror to get melee off your back fast.
