Basically what it boils down to is: Pick a class that appeals to, learn it inside and out, and you can excel in PVE. EDIT: I disagree about feral druid dps, while the rotation is complicated from what I've heard it can be very rewarding. I hate to bring GS into it but my irl friend has a druid, feral spec is 5400 gs and he regularly hits 9-10k single target. With all 277/284's I wouldn't be surprised to see him at up to 15k.
