So I've been reading through recent forum posts and have seen a lot of activity on returning players.  Questions about current state of game, recent updates, population, classes, etc...  All very good information and a great sign for coming back!  The community seems very responsive and supportive so I thought I would give a shot at posting.  My brother and I are in the same state, we played during release and only stayed a short time before we left to another game and are coming back to enjoy in all the new fancy!
 
But down to the meat and potatoes.  Trying to get an understanding of class differences and quirks since we are going to reroll on Dom.  We are looking primarily for PvE viability with a hint of PvP thrown in there for fun.
 
I am looking to heal and am torn between medic and SS.  I've been trying to look up videos and streams to see how each plays but can't find anything recent.  Any brief breakdown of the classes in a healing role with pro/con comparisons would be greatly appreciated!  Thus far I've gotten that medic is close ranged healer that's good for tanks and SS is longer ranged healer that is good for groups.  Medic > SS in pvp.
 
My brother is looking to DPS and is between esper and SS.  He played esper at release and felt it was pretty lacking so is somewhat hesitant to try it again even though community feedback seems to support current state.  Again, any breakdown of pro/con between the two and an idea of where they shine and where they fall is appreciated.  Thus far it seems that SS is top DPS and really great for groups where esper is still behind but has a more fun rotation.
 
Thanks in advance for any feedback!
