I have been trying both forms of DPS recently and I am undecided as to which one I prefer. I hear that melee DPS specs’ are like bullies that are always attacking something where as ranged are the bullied who are trying to get away from the bully. I do mostly random bgs’ as i level and at max level. But i would like to try arena and do more Battleground Blitz.
Druid… play both.
Lol I’m BG’s if you play melee you feel pretty bullied by range 
Honestly just play both and figure out what you like.
It’s really personal preference. I generally loathe playing melee in PvP, I find warrior is pretty decent because they have tons of closers but otherwise it’s painful being snared and rooted and just twiddling your thumbs.
Ranged however sucks when their team is melee heavy because then you always have a few people in your face and it’s hard to escape.
I think the more important thing is if you are soloing or playing with friends. If soloing choose a kit that is more self sufficiency with plenty of defensives. If playing with friends you can kind of play anything as long as they are supporting you.
i do play solo or by myself. What classes would you think have more self sufficiency and plenty of defensives?
Play warrior and youll hit 4k in all forms of pvp. They are beyond broken now
