Returning player looking for his class!

[unreal flume]

Hello there! i'm a returning player i used to play wizard but never got super deep into the game.
I was hearing great things so decided to come back now i'm facing the challenge of picking a class.
The problem i'm running into is being very overwhelmed by the combo's and having so many skills even while leveling.
Some classes really speak to me like awakened Drakania but i fear the high APM might make grinding less enjoyable on longer sessions, On the other hand with a class like Lahn I fear that it becomes boring quickly with the Skills you do end up using.
PVP wise i've always enjoyed being that annoying rat that strikes from either the shadows or a distance. a class that when position correctly can dish out alot of damage and be gone before you can strike back.
With this i've found a couple classes that speak to me and would love some input!
Sorceress, Archer, awakening Sage, awakening Drakania or succ/awakening Woosa.
I'll be playing PvP and PvE. And Meta doesn't concern me. Playing the best class won't keep me playing, Having fun will!
Thanks for coming to my ted talk and sorry it's so long!

All classes can be played simple or complex way

Simple as using few key skills and just spam them

Complex to make grind smoother and combos more powerful

Sorc has very rough time at 1-56, but after getting awakening it is tornado with scythe

Archer is simple class because it starts with awakening and does not have succession
1 to 56 is okay speed

Sage has very slow and clunky lvling because skills has long cast times, but poweful aoes.
Succession may be smoother at start of 56
But at end awakening is much faster apm than succession
I like succession sage a lot

Awa drakania is very fast and has long distance dashes
1 to 56 is bit slow tho

Woosa is overall great class and has easy lvling time
