I have a couple of questions about twinking, I'll start with this one:
Which class is better(not easier to twink) in PvP when twinked: rogue, hunter or warrior?
I know there's no way to really determine this, but I'm just looking for opinions :P
from any experienced twinkers...
Others can also post anything related to twinking in here, so the topic doesn't go to waste.

I have a twinked hunter, and playing against warriors and rogues one vs one. I 90% of the time win, depends on if warrior spams hamstring after I use trinket, and depends on if rogue use evasion (even then it's close).
A twinked rogue will almost always be number 1 in KB's, or at least in top three for the whole game. They also can run flag very well, Boots, Sprint, Swiftness, Boots, instant flag score it seems.
Warriors can have a ton of health and hit for the 150's easily no crits, and when they do crit it's chucnks of another twinks health and sometime one-shotting same level non-twinked players. They can run flag alot, with high armor, and health and are a pain to take down with a healer.
Since you always see rogues everywhere I decide to go hunter, they are popular but I see far more rogues than anything else, and a warrior to me was a pain to twink, since usually (hardcore) you get two sets of gear, one for DPS and one for flag carrying.
Just play what you want, doesn't matter what it is. :)

Is this just another way of asking "What is the uber-class?"
Not really a comment on which class is better, but a factor to consider is also gear availability for your twink's level. For example on my server there are tons of rogue twink's, and thusly +agi items in the lvl 17-19 range sell for a small fortune. I haven't looked, but I would imagine that +str + sta items in the lvl 17-19 range (such as a warrior would use) are much more reasonable as there are far fewer twinked warriors so less demand.

Not really, just asking what classes abilities go nicely with good twink gear, too narrow your search pattern :P , if I make a twink I'm going to get it to lvl 19 and leave it there, this only means WSG(sadly), but I'll have to try harder(more lvl 19 twinks).
And I guess I prefer rogues and warriors to hunters, cos I've already played a hunter and I didn't really like it.

I think it depends on what you want to do with your twink.
One of the things I hated the most when I was doing AB on the Alliance side was the lack of healers, so I'm currently working on a holy pally to do AB in the 20-29 or the 30-39 bracket. Sure I'll probably never get a kill but then again I won't be there to kill, I'll be there to heal.
I'm also working on a rogue for 10-19 just to try it out. I dont have much gold but my fiancee is working on her enchanting so at least I'll have the mediocre enchants at the very least.

None.....they all will pwnzor newbs....so ya cant go wrong.
Even the most powerful rogue twink, in the 10-19 bracket, can get kited by most of the classes. With Imp. Backstab, a rogue twink is extremely fun but when facing skilled kiters, extremely annoying and the fight pretty much can't be won without sprint (and minor speed on your boots is necessary).
With warriors, you get hamstring... you can pretty much annihilate anyone you get the charge on but you might lose in 1v1 versus a good twinked rogue.

Rogues are the easiest and most powerful twink class in 10-19. You have to be Gnome for Escape Artist though or you're going to get punked a lot by mages and Hunters. Undead for WotF is a second best choice. I /LOL when I see people spend lots of G making NE twink Rogues ...
The only class that has a chance against them 1on1 is an equally twinked Hunter.
Hunters are the second best 10-19 twink class. They don't kill things quite as fast as Rogues, but they can be quite satisfying.
Warriors are pretty gimp @ 19 due to getting bogged down easily and not having enough tools (no FAPs until 20, in Intercept until 20, no Execute), but they can Hamstring and hit pretty hard.
Caster classes are tough @ 19. Priests are great flag runners but even w/ a Gravestone Scepter and wand spec, they are lacking in DPS. Mages and Locks need very expensive enchants to do decent DPS. Frost Mages can be a ***** w/ Frostbite spec, +30 spell damage staff enchant and +20 frost damage gloves. Paladins make great support, just like at any level.

I have a Paladin I'm working on twinking out for 29. She's a good part of the way there now. Let me tell you know, they are incredibly powerful additions to your team. At 27 I kept a 25 warrior up against several twinks while also keeping myself and a level 28 warrior up while I was being beaten on by a twink hunter and the 28 warrior was fighting a twinked rogue. The Rogue and the twinks on the 25 went down, but the hunter ended up getting us as I was low health and mana, but we rezzed and finished him off, defending the node.
Twink Paladins who heal are insanely overpowered in 20-29 WSG. In addition to your healing talents, get 7 points in Prot for Guardian's Favor and Redoubt, then throw a shield spike in as well, and you won't be sorry.
And no, you'll almost never get kills, but it's not what you're there for. The first time you successfully "Tank" 5-6 enemies while your FC runs past, it'll be all worth it.
I would twink a warrior if I were you, although rogues have maximum dps and hunters are good against almost every class, even if you're twinked when you fight like 3+ people it starts to get hard. Warriors have more HP so can deal out the high damage and take multiple opponents. ( I have a twinked paladin, but still wears mail and I always own multiple opponents)
So...yeah...I would get a warrior for maximum survivability and last longer
and with hamstring it's not annoying to always get mvmt impaired, like rogues always do :P

Driving nails into the smacking end, and putting razors on the edges.
Any other questions?
