Which class deals more damage? [closed]

I still have my 90 boost left and I want to use it either on a mage or a priest. So I am asking myself, which class deals more damage (DPS) on single targets (e.g. SoO bosses)?

Lots of people told me that a frost mage is easier to play and deals more damage but if both classes are fully geared up (heroic SoO) and the player is experienced the shadow priest will deal way more damage, although I've never got an evidence for that (for example recount log, rotation etc.).

That depends: Which patch are we talking about?

The thing about the various classes in WoW is that Blizzard is constantly buffing/nerfing different classes each patch. There is no consistent best damage dealer if you look at even a timeframe of a couple of months. When the new expansion comes out, expect classes to be reworked. When a patch comes out after that, expect the classes to be further changed. I've been playing since Burning Crusades, and I have seen every class take its fair share of the spotlight.

In that regard, just play the class that you'll have the most fun with. That may be a hybrid class if you would also like to tank or heal, or you may even have multiple top-level classes that you switch between. Sure class A might not currently be as strong as class B, but it's not really going to matter for most game content. The only time that I have seen this matter is in cases where a guild is looking for a specific raid composition for bleeding edge progression, but that's a special case and can be largely ignored by most people.
