I just got my pvp mount and want to level and play a melee class now. I played most of the time casters classes.
What class would you say is most fun in SS? I limited my choices already to arms warr, unholy dk, havoc dh and retri pala. But still cannot decide.
All are good in solo shuffle I think. Unholy maybe has far less the disadvantage to get focused in every match as I saw. Arms seems to be the strongest but maybe I am wrong. DH I played already a few levels, makes fun to play, but there are not so many in arena. And retri I really don’t know. Some are really strong in SS but most of the time the are first target.
I am not a good player. So don’t blame me please for my rating. I play SS only for fun.
up until 1800-2100 ret/ww is propaply the strongest. Above that WW is the best by far right now.
from the melees u listed id say uhdk and ret are the best currently for ss.
ret ww yes
I would 100% recommend ret from that list. A lot of agency, a lot of room to improve, was recently redesigned so people who play it say the gameplay is good and the spec is fun.
It’s very unlikely ret will become obsolete any time soon no matter how the meta changes.
Ret is definitely the most overall solid Shuffle “melee”. Why? Cause it’s not even a melee 
Also because its pretty tanky and has insane teamwide peel and utility. Oftentimes even if your healer isn’t great, or whole team isn’t great, you can carry the game by yourself with saving people and CCing enemy healer on CD.
Basically the moment you start using Blessing of Sanctuary on CD instantly when your healer gets stunned or feared, freedoming root beams, and using Blessing of Spellwarden PvP talent to give a magic bubble to teammates, you just start winning hard.

Ret and ww
I don’t think there has ever been a season with so many broken melees. Just pick your flavor.
some people are so deluded its hilarious.
lol did you play 10.0.7 ahahha xd
its not even close.
Id say 10.0.5 were more melee heaven.
10.0.7 were Ret first, after nerf it became more Ret/Demo/Arms heaven.
i still get haunted in my sleep by the double ret demo lobbys 10.0.7
Everything except DH and Outlaw Rogue.
Every melee are viable; some are totally broken (Hello WW, DK and Ret), rest are viable
The last 2 are DH and Outlaw who are garbage beyond saving.
I really suck on pvp but managed to get 1600 on ret and now working on my DK, went direct to 1400 and have not even started.
What I miss on DK are the tools to help out my team, maybe I learn it soon? On the Ret there are so many ways to help out when sh!t goes sideways.
Both feels like they do great dps. More sustained on DK and more bursty on Ret. Maybe a bit less complicated rotation on Ret aswell
Windwalker monk. High mobility and insane burst potential. Kinda squishy though.
As you admit you are not a great player I would say Warrior.
Classes and specializations gets buffed and nerfed one patch after another and you will never know when the turn comes for what you choose.
But arms have been pretty solid the entire expansion at lower ratings thanks to their heavy ms and strong mobility.
Players that complains that arms is bad plays at higher ratings.
best melee bro? just play assa rog 
so fan i swear!
