Which class/spec to pug KSM as ranged dps?

I was thinking of getting back into M+ when the new expansion comes out, but it’s been so long since I’ve done it I was looking for some opinions.

I’d be pugging the whole thing, and I’d prefer to run as ranged dps. A bonus would be healing off spec so I could still heal for raids, but I’m not as worried about that. I know class utility is far more important in M+ since there’s only 5 roles to fill.

I also know that it’s going to be hard to predict since we haven’t even seen class changes yet, so I’m really not looking for what’s going to be meta, or best dps or anything.

What I’m really looking for is some feedback on which ranged dps classes as a whole would offer the best utility and would potentially have the best chance of being invited to pugs for the most part?

These are the specs I generally play for ranged dps, and in all honesty I would likely not swap specs (for the pure dps classes obviously).

Boomkin
BM hunter
Destro lock
Frost mage
Shadow priest
Ele shaman

Best utility and good numbers for both.

+1 for shaman for Lust
+1 for Boomie for Brez

Arcane mage.

Boomkin is an amazing M+ spec, bear form on demand, great uncapped aoe, aoe stop, aoe interrupt and silence, best m+ buff out of all classes.

My vote to Boom or BM.

What about melee? Do they have an easier time getting into groups, or would it be better to stick with ranged dps? I hate making decisions =S

If it’s just KSM I wouldn’t worry; pick any class you want you can reach KSM without much trouble
