First of all hi everone!
Yes iam pretty new to wow. I dont really know what class i should play as...
I have tried paladin, they are pretty op in my opinion they are great. But i wanna try something else now.
I want to do spectacular dps! =D I love dps i love to be on the top 5 in most dps and damage done on PvE.
Does not matter wich dps roll, i like both spellcasters and meele's. I dont want to DoT, just end the fight quickly with bursting dps. I've read on the forum, and seen on youtube. And gotta say that Shaman(dunno anything about them) or Warrior seems to be great! And looks as if they are the high dps makers. Or? I love titans grip seems awesome.
Currently iam playing as a Shadow Priest, and my friends a druid and a mage are really making me look bad.. They have greater dps than me x)
Kindly Regards Goodis

if you're looking for pure dps, I'd stay off both warrior and shaman. Both of them are considered by Blizzard to be 'hybrid' or 'non-pure' classes, which means they're not going to do as much
theoretical
dps as the pure classes (Rogue, Mage, Hunter, Warlock). I'm not saying they can't put out some amazing dps because they can, but if you're looking for the absolute highest dps, go with one of the pure classes.
Since you don't want a DoT class warlock is out. Any of the other three fit your requirements though.

Thanks for the respond. Well i didnt know they where hybrid, but iam confused cuz on youtube you can see warrios make for example 10k dps, if you search for hunter you can see a hunter make 10k dps, if you search for a shadow priest you see it make 10k dps e.t.c
I think i will go for a hunter, after i've fixed some leveling gear.
Still confused, so a full epic geared hunter make more dps than a full epic geared warrior?
EDIT: It does not matter to me witch class is theoretical pure dps, or considered by blizzard, what matters to me is witch class today that makes the most dps/dmg. =P

Blizzard's design philosophy is that 'pure' classes should do slightly more dps than hybrid (Blizzard defines a hybrid as anything that can fill more than one roll) classes with all things being equal. I said theoretically because things are rarely ever equal, so if you ever want to do anything other than dps, roll a hybrid. If you want the potential to put out as much dps as possible, roll a pure class.
@edit:
That's just it though. There isn't one. You can just say "this class does the most damage" because it's all subjective. Mutilate rogues are
supposedly
the highest single target dps in the game, but it depends on the fight and such.
