I have 7 characers at lower levels and already deleted serveral more. PVE is a priority.
I simply cannot decide which class to play.
Things I like:
– Soloing difficult or group content
– Tanking
– Healing
– having to actively time blocks and dodges
– engaging and demanding playstyle with many active skills
– when in doubt I prefer sustain over burst
Weapons I like:
– Sword and Board
– Bow
– Dual Wield
Things I don’t like:
– simple playstyles which consist of dull rotations or spamming the same ability over and over
– playing as a DPS in group Settings, I very much prefer tanking, healing or CC.
Wepaons I don’t like.
– Staves
– Two-Handers
I’d prefer a race/lass combo that offers a lot of flexibility to switch roles on the fly.
Things I considered:
1. Breton or Altmer Magicka Nightblade
+ can be a decent DPS, good tank and medicore healer
+ good mobility and utility
– don’t really like the stealthy skills, overall playstyle just did not “klick”
2. Altmer Magicka Sorcerer
+ can only be DPS (after DB update)
+ was most fun on lower levels despite staves 
– seems to get a huge nerf with Dark Brotherhood
– most commenters (Deltias and the like) consider their playstyle “boring”
3. Altmer Magicka DK
+ can be decent DPS and healer
+ engaging playstyle with managing lots of DoTs
– is considered subpar tank compared to the stamina Version?
– mobility?
4. Imperial Stamina DK
+ can be very good DPS and tank
+ cool weapon selection with bow and dual-wield
+ engaging playstyle with having to manage lots of DoTs
– no mobility
? Is this good for solo? Doesn’t it get boring? And how do you heal yourself as a stamina class?
5. Imperial Stamina Sorcerer
+ looks like a lot of fun in Deltias new video after Dark brotherhood
+ cool weapon selection with bow and dual-wield
? mobility, self heal?
6. Magicka Templar
+ can be very good healer, tank and decent DPS
+ very good solo class with lots of self healing ability
– lack of mobility
– doesn’t look really engaging in most videos, just healing yourself and spamming jabs?
Please help me out of my dilemma 
Thanks,
Colin
