Just an idea I've had for some specs in World of Warcraft. Just trying to add variety to each class!
Warrior (Man-at-arms) - This class would be using mail, as they'd rely on more roguelike combat. Imagine enhancement shaman without magic.
Warlock (Fel-Juggernaut) - A tanking class for warlocks, based on transformations. The spec would have you use a transformation where you'd be a fel guard (Or other large demon) and use a mix of magical spells with your tanking powers. Imagine an evil paladin.
Mage (Battlemage) - The mages take on melee, a dps mail class. You could cast spells in combat (Like an enhance shammy). You could conjure up weapons (ala skyrim/oblivion) and use them in battles, changing weapons based on strategy.
Hunter (Engineer) - Think Axton from Borderlands, using turrets in lou of pets. You'd be able to customize parts of the turret which would serve different purposes.
Rogue (Alchemist) - A rogue class that would revolve around poisons. Whether they be thrown bombs, or different ones on daggers, it would be a spec based around moves like shiv.
These are just a few ideas. You guys have anymore??

Honestly, I would love to see something like a battle commander spec for warriors. Something similar to Warlord from D&Ds 4th edition. A warrior who leads the charge on the field, inspires his allies and destroys his enemies moral. The problem is that I really don't think this would fit well in WoW as it is now unless the added another role like support or something similar.

A support class would be awesome. I would definitely play one

I love tanking to much to change roles! But I loved seeing the support role in Rift being played, it added something to the party that i think is really needed in an MMO, someone who is aware of the happenings on the battlefield and helps everyone react accordingly like a tactician. Most of the support specs in that game were fun to play you too! Basically just buff your allies and make them do massive damage or receive more healing or even lower CD's when used in certain time limit. It would be cool and would breath some life into the game I think.
