Class specific major changes:
Rangers got a massive boost with archery mastery 3 and endless quiver, fundamentally changing how they did damage for many expansions. They became rogue level or higher dps at baseline and were godly dps under trueshot.
Wizards received significant changes via aa’s making them more competitive in daily play
Bards got fading memories, an instant aggro wipe on a longish cooldown due to impaired mana regen.
Warriors became a lot more tolerable to play with AAs that allowed them to pull even further ahead from a mitigation standpoint along with benefiting hugely from weapon affinity as it increases proc rate by 50% which is crucial to the ability to tank. There were also made available more warrior specific weapons with proc rate mods for those that raided.
All in all everyone becomes more efficient with aa’s.
Monks got put back in their place with some mitigation nerfs.
