Which class/setup you had the biggest blast with in BGs/no cp pvp?

After taking a break from eso I recently returned and of course got bored after 2 weeks like usual, but thought id give it one last chance and try bgs because I never have. Managed to put together 5 heavy ravager back bar 1h/shield + bone pirate + bloodspawn + asylhum 2hander on my orc stam dk and boyyyy I must admit I never EVER had so much fun playing this game. Qued for BGs 5 hours straight, que times were 1-2 mins tops (possibly due to low mmr?), the non stop action was amazing and I even had fun when being defeated cause the matches didn't drag out too long and you could still snag a kill or two.
So now I'm thinking, how many more class/build combos are there that can blow your mind? Looking forward 2 hearing them all, so there's actually something fun to do in this game again (leveling/gearing characters for battlegrounds)!!!

    Argonian Warden, dw/2h, 5x 7th Legion, 5x Clever Alchemist (dw bar), asylum 2h, Bloodspawn, 5 heavy 2 medium, all jewelry has to be infused with potion cooldown reduction ideally all three pieces gold (currently I have 7th jewelry 2 gold one purple) ...
    Rotating speed+lingering heath potions, immovable+HP+Stam, sometimes using immovable+speed+stam

    Planning to run same setup on Sorc, maybe switching up BS for Troll King and vMA axe for Asylum...

    Note: it's fun but expansive thirsty build.. but in NoCP environment blast of fun to play

    I really wanna try something with 5 backbar alchemist and vma 2 hander for sorc aswell with pot cooldown glyphs, but wondering which set would pair best for weapon dmg...ravager, automaton?

    Go auto unless you're really comfortable juggling the procs. When you turn and burn with alch you want the other set's dmg to be there reliably.

    Edit: the whole pot cooldown thing is just absolutely broken strong if you can afford to run it. Especially in BGs, would recommend.

    But how much would i sacrifice not getting gold jewelery?
    The build idea came from feng rush stamsorc video where he was claiming u have to run gold jewelery else its loosing too much damage from ring enchants and stamina or something...

    Clever Alchemist is your damage set.

    Here is how would go about it:

    If my sorc was Argonian I would probably go with the above mentioned Seventh Legion's Brute and run 5 heavy 2 medium setup. The stats are gonna be fairly low but the damage for executing combos when needed is going to be there on demand

    If not Argonian I would take Bone Pirate's Tatters for more raw Stam and sustain and go 5 medium 2 heavy path. Or Impregnable Armor full well-fitted for roll dodge and sprint and over all good defense and mobility...

    Monster set would be Troll King in either case.

    Note: this is all just a theory so far as I have not finished leveling my StamSorc yet.

    Purple infused jewelry reduces your cooldown by 7 seconds x3 makes it 21 which sets you at 45-21=24 seconds potion cooldown.
    Golden by 8 ... makes it 45-(3×8)=21 seconds.

    Edit: I have originally wanted to run something like that on a Argonian NB to make a Shadowscale lore build, but ended up not doing it because and building it on Warden instead.

    My cooldown with 2 golden and 1 purple jewelry is 22 seconds which works for me just fine. Looking forward to the next patch when jewelcrafting becomes less expansive on improving to golden out the last jewelry piece.

    It just synergizes well with the HP from Clever Alchemist, HP regen & proc heal from 7th Legion's, HA passives and multiple HoTs I will be running, giving me the tankiness to stay in that 'non stop action' as you described it
