Magicka templar. You can solo all game from start to upper Craglorn with the first skill you actually get.Spears ftw.
NB on the other hand will get its better tools a bit latter.
So, to sum up all the answers above, all build types are best at solo dps. But I can tell you from experience, that how you play it makes a HUGE difference. Player skill is a big part also.
Sorc is what this guys wants. They have the best of all worlds. Highest mobility, highest DPS, most bubbles/damage absorb. The most OP class in the game if you know how to play it.

I've found that it's how you develop whatever is your liking to build a good solo character. I only have time to play on weekends and sometimes not at all on weekends. Just tweak around with your characters. From level 1 - 10 your should get a feel on a character to decide if it's going to work out for you or not. Like it took me a while that I wasn't really feeling up to a Redguard Nightblade. Other people might actually like it though. It's all about yourself really. It's a role playing game. Possibilities are endless.
