Fury Warrior IMO tends to be quite brainless to me. Only a handful of buttons to basically pull off what Fury Warriors do best, especially when it comes to situations involving single or multitarget, very little need to change up since Whirlwind is just another button to press in that case. I dunno about Frost Mage since I never touched it. Though just mind that Fury Warrior is a typical definition of button mashing too, very fast paced.
Frost Mage. Always more reasons to bring a mage over a warrior imo. Timewarp, portals, food, ranged etc. Completely braindead and easy to get into groups. Warrior is fun but you’ll get passed over mage.

i think fury fits your wants a lil more.
frost mage is pretty simple but dependent on good synergy with your tank which can be frustrating.
fury is pretty consistent regardless of variables.
on the other hand, frostmage can cover the lust spot which is a huge advantage when it comes to being invited faster.
is arcane as easy? ive always had soft spot for them
touch of the magi is headache incarnate.
whatchu mean
Its easy on paper to press and burst, but optimizing it is literally what makes arcane what it is. Shamefully living bomb is not as viable otherwise fire would fit the same niche except in a more “spammy” nature.
In pickup groups touch is that much harder to pre calculate since not only do you have to account for predicting when mobs will die, but you also have to learn / command your allies to optimize around you, something most pugs do not understand thoroughly enough. Hell how often do you see people allowing warriors to finish execute range solo while they pump the higher hp things… usually when there’s an affix that tells them to, says something about how keen individuals are towards their pickup allies.
Fury is easymode, arms is incredibly fun (2h night fae frost dk is similarly fun) for your original post. The three mage specs are not unfun, but as I said, arcane is a headache to optimize around scenarios where precalculation timestamps are so varying.

Wow! Frost Mage isn’t very complex, but it is very proc heavy. Running on a cold (haha) streak with a lack of Brain Freeze/Fingers procs is absolutely miserable. You have a number of ways to compensate for that but, yeah, get comfy casting Frostbolt a lot.
The plus side of Frost Mage is that you have a lot of AoE and you can cast spells like Ice Lance while moving, so you still have some damage uptime even in movement heavy scenarios!
Fury Warriors have a pretty basic rotation with a finisher at the end, it is very fast paced however! You’ll need to get really good at nailing those GCD timings with how fast you’ll be attacking. Damage is generally solid but you lack a lot of utility something like a Mage brings, although crafting/buying Drums can help compensate for this.
You also have to ensure you’re always in range of your opponent, which can be a bit of a problem depending on the fight. As opposed to Frost Mage who can fling Ice Lances to maintain some DPS, Fury Warriors have no such option.
Ultimately depends on if you want a ranged DPS with proc based but real exciting burst windows, or a melee DPS that has an easy rotation, consistent DPS but not many utility toys to play with? Or, rather, if you want to stab things with frozen shards of ice or two huge weapons.
…My choice may be a bit obvious…
If you’re not set on those 2 classes, then try beast master hunter. It’s the most laid back spec in the game, especially if you get a weak aura to track your frenzy uptime/stacks.
But of what you said, range is more casual than melee to play with others. Frost mage is literally spamming one button while waiting for procs, and then add a couple of things for cooldowns and aoe, and it is very easy.

i dont think you can mess frost mage up. actually impossible.
they have a lot of tricky legendary choices but that’ll be going away in DF so its w/e.
Fury warrior is extremely easy. But there’s a reason the meme about them is popping CDs, zugging for 2 seconds then dying.
Frost mage you can just vibe at range and press the glowy button. Your damage won’t be consistent (I think fury DPS is generally stronger) but it’s more chill (not intentional).
Or MM hunter. It’s a literal one-button spec at the moment but people don’t believe me!

GCD timings ?
Just mash the button, what. WoW isn’t rocket science. 1111111 2222222 3333333 1111111
Not so easy for that person if they aren’t using their regen abilities or defensives.
Thought that was ret pallys lol.
I play a fury war in keys and never have aggro issues.
Out of the two, I would choose fury if you want faster gameplay or prefer melee. But nothing beats BM hunter on the braindead scale. Not even DH.
You’re not using your 4 set and talents correctly if you’re only mashing Aimed Shot.
from what i have heard , bear tank, frost mage, ret pally and disc priest , are the worst of there roll’s atm in DF
I guess I don’t literally mean “literally.” MM is still very easy and the vast majority of your damage will come from aimed shot.
