I plan to 5box so I'm going Warrior, Mage, Hunter, Druid and Shaman - I love pet class and the Maraudon farm, so can't be without a hunter, otherwise warlock would make more sense for summoning.

Warrior because I love the sound of a solid block, but I'll be leveling fury. Mage for utility and because I've never tried AoE farming - seems like a nice challenge. Druid is one of my all-time favourite classes and she'll be tanking up to max level. Shaman for play style and basically one extra melee dps while leveling, especially since IWT seems to be available.

I have odd hours and lots of responsibilities, this way I can enjoy instances whenever it suits me - and take a break in the run anytime the 2½ yo needs me :)

I'll either be playing Paladin or Warlock. Paladin because that's what my main was/is in classic/retail, and Warlock as a "try something new" class (never played casters in Classic).

I'm almost certain that I'm going to play a mage for a multitude of reasons. Mostly because I like the class fantasy but having teleports and free drinks/food to go about is most definitely good to have as well. For the possible alts I'm not so certain though.

Probably a Night Elf Druid for healing to level with my SO. When they aren't online I'll probably be playing a Human Pally. Really want to give healing a try for Classic. Too used to playing DPS.

Protection warrior most likely, for ease of forming groups for 5 mans. Also because I like the fantasy of a warrior mastering blacksmithing, and having to run brd to craft dark iron stuff for example really tickles my fancy.
I’ve missed professions being more important and much more involved like when I leveled tailoring in bc.

That guide is awesome and exactly the reason how I stumbled upon this forum while researching blacksmithing as a matter of fact!

I’m going with the Druid not sure what race yet, but the reasons I am going with Druid I like the shapeshifting and I am always going back and forth from do’s, healing, and tanking on different classes and so I can kind of do all them on a Druid. So then I am not switching characters all the time.

Be prepared to grind a lot of gold if you want to do that on one character regularly though, no dual spec or anything of that matter in Classic.

I’m not against the grind, it is my plan right now but it might change three months from now when classic does release.

Really excited to try my hand at Warrior tanking, I've mostly played Holy Priest in retail.

At this point I am thinking about any Ally race Priest and Gnome Warrior. I might play both in the end.

I'm with you on that: the main reason why I use warrior is that I love blacksmithing! It's, at the end, probably the thing on which I spend most of my playtime: finding recipes, hunting for exotic reagents. It's awesome! And I hate the fact that, expansion after expansion, they kept dumbing down professions.
I remember the first time I was able to craft a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=2870/shining-silver-breastplate : the sole fact, as a horde, that I had to run to Wetlands to farm efficently for the https://classic.wowhead.com/item=5500/iridescent-pearl was AMAZING! It gave real valor the piece you were crafting.

I've been thinking of making a Shaman. Class surveys and records from private servers seem to indicate they'll be in short supply. Should be easy to make friends with all the warriors out there.
I've heard lots of bad things from former shaman players: too many buttons, slow leveling, can only support in raids. I think I'll manage though.
I played druid in vanilla and while I was a great PVP healer it sucked to sacrifice all of my damage for it. Ele/resto hybrid looks fun.
