Definitely Bow Rogue
I do not have a ton of time to play weekly. So I like builds that are useful and capable of clearing alot of different areas while mf’ing or key finding, etc. So I mostly use the meta builds and I find them fun:
Blizzard Sorceress: Teleport for the win. Also a good key farmer for 2 out of 3 sets of keys needed for ubers. Good at Magic finding, etc.
Hammerdin: General purpose, all around useful. Aiming the hammers is the only thing you may or may not like. But fun to play because it is so good.
LF/CS Amazon: Lightning Fury and Charged Strike are awesome in cows. That alone is worth having a char setup for it and ready to go.
Barb: Horking for loot. Getting a horker going can be interesting and time consuming, since leveling a barb is not a quick process. But a Barb Horking away is always fun and usually worthwhile for the loot found while magic finding
Warlock: With all the changes going on, I cannot comment further on this character currently. It was fun and OP the way blizz released it. However they nerfed the crap out of it. It will take some time to figure out what works still and where and how.
Other builds I like but I do not play often or anymore: Whirlwind Barb, Bowazon, Summon Necro, Trapsin, Fire or Windy Druid, Leap Attack Barb

Ah, the horker. If you haven’t yet tried, make a throw barb horker. Fun to play once it’s built, but it’s a slow PITA grind if you try and build one from scratch and don’t have another high level character to shop for cruel throwing spears. I usually build one after my sorc is going strong and get one or two Gimmershreds. I’ll then shop Anya for some cruel throwing spears for the mid-game. Getting 2x Demon Archs and/or 2x Wraith Flights kicks the damage up a notch or two.
Sorc: Blizzard, Meteorb, Fireball/Orb
Necro: Summoner
Pally: Hammerdin, FoHdin, Zealdin
Barb: Hork/throw, Whirlwind/Frenzy
Sin: Traps
Zon: Strafe, Javelin
Druid: Windy
Warlock: TBD

Don’t forget about Crossbow Necro using max Dim Vision and max Bone Armor
Or the Fully Upgraded Arctic Set Freezing Arrow Amazon, she is really cool too

He has tough start but berserk barbarian. Can be very durable, can kill anything, find item skill. I also like to play energy shield Frozen orb sorc. Used to play hammerdin a lot in past.
Of course I’m going to say bowazon. Why?
- play style: has good AoE, tactical, positioning, never too safe; always have to have situation awareness
- itemisation: gearing her has a good progression curve, every upgrade carries some meaning
- balance: the game doesn’t feel too challenging or too easy

I will say for me, it is more a hybrid build. It is not efficient, but I like when you just spam more one button.
Poison/melee amazon
nova/frozen orb
fury/rabbies
tornado/ summoner druid
I really like when you switch from ranged to closed. For example, I use vengeance and I switch to a crosswbow with conviction and an act 3 ice merc. Super weird and unique playstyle
Summon necro is fun, but luseless in farming. Capable of beating the game on hell though
Is your idea of fun easy or gear dependent?
Assassin is pretty fun and needs minimal gear to function for traps.
Amazon is similar but easily the most powerful with just basic gear at higher lvls with certain skills.
Sorc is squishy and not my idea of fun, more of a chore without gear
Rest of the classes are sorta in the middle imo.
Zeal Paladin, Throw Barb, Multi-shot Amazon
Destruction-Fire-Fury druid and Throw/Frenzy barb.
Tesladin is fun but that’s an NL build.
Necros have the easiest time farming hell cows before anyone else gets geared so not useless. You can use them To farm merc bases
- Werewolf (Fury…duh)
- WW barb
- Bowazon
- FO Sorc
These are my most enjoyable builds. Their viability in /p8 is an entirely different discussion 
Fohdin is the best build
