so then if im expecting to get beat up on the pally is th ebest choice? Or can a druid stay alive just as long as a pally? Im even considering the shaman for its totems. Lets see if I miss anything:

Pally can - Give Blessings to improve dps or mana regen. Also Devotion aura for more armor. Also can take a beaten.

Druid - Cast Gift of the wild buff for more armor & resistance. Thorns for added dps. Innervate for mana regen. Nice instants / hots / swiftmend

Shaman - Earthen shield / totems - more agil / Str / mana & health regen. grounding totem / tremor totem / lots of totems 1 instant heal.

Please someone help me decide and why
