I reckon Ironbreaker because it's the most obvious pure tank. Tanks have a reputation for being awful for solo-ing and PVP so are less popular (hence the shortage of tanks in WoW). However it's possible their numbers will pick up once people get to know how to properly utilise them in PvP |

It's pointless to listen to someone who will not listen to you |

I'd say archmagus, and not just because it's a healing class. For me it's the fact that it's an elf and a healer. Besides how they play vs. something like a rune priest only means they will take more of hit. |

It's definitely not what you people are voting for. Engineer? Easily the most interesting class in the game. The least played is Archmage. - - - |

Archmage is just like a shaman. You heal to get offensive power. You can spec you're mage to be more DPS but you still need to heal to gain that power. |

I'd have to say Ironbreaker also. Compared to the Destruction tanks, Chosen and Black Orc (who get a lot of hype btw), I really haven't heard all too much of the ironbreaker. The swordmaster sounds way more fun and the breaker just sounds like....a defensive warrior.
Tanks in PVP generally will get bashes and stuns if they can't DPS well. Also in scenario games like CTF an Ironbreaker would be awesome to grab the flag and run. Tanks also get overlooked in PVP because they aren't wearing cloth and they do not seem like an easy target, thus allowing them to unload on whichever target they please. I doubt many people will shy away from the Ironbreaker just because they can't PVP in a way that is noticeable. The Ironbreaker should be decent at soloing as well.
This is all speculation though. I don't see how Order can have a handful of swordmasters and very few ironbreakers for tanks. I guess we'll have to see how it pans out, but I am assuming Ironbreakers will be on the short end. |

Typically, the tanks and healers will be the least played classes. But in this case, the tank will be moreso then the healer (at least for order). Ironbreaker looks like the dullest class I've ever seen. Who the heck voted that war lion would be least played?? That looks like a wicked fun class (melee dps + pet is pretty awesome imo).

The White Lion will be filled with former WoW hunters who'll think it has similar play mechanics. It looks like it'll be much more involved than hunters though |

Hold on Snow Leopard, imma let you finish, but Windows had one of the best operating systems of all time.

I alway hated my pet in WoW, so I'm glad I get to choose a shadow warrior with a nice mix of ranged and melee dps. I think the elast played will be a healing class, either Runepriest or Archmagus... I think the Disciple will be popular however... |
