Which class benefits the most from having access to all BoE items?

So my friend just reactivated his account because finals are over and I convinced him to help me farm stuff in order to get any of the BFD BoE's and anything else I need. Anyone have an idea as to what class benefits the most from this? I was thinking rogue/hunter because of foreman's, shadowfang, RoP and FotL but they are kind of stale classes.
 
Stats are changing soon. Expertise will be going away, as will many of the secondary stats. It would not be wise to spend tons of time getting gear that may or may not be useful.
Play a class you enjoy, rather than playing a class that is easy to gear. Master that class or spec, stick with it. Do not just settle for being merely "okay" or "good" at several or all classes and specs.

Stam stacking Holy paladin definitely

Stuff to farm:
MM
spiked bracers of stam
blood ring
silver linked footguards
swifty
MTB

In case you have to go prot you also need:
Demon band
Thorbias gauntlets
Redbeard's crest

Swag:
Martyr's chain

A wee bit off topic. I know the OP specifically mentioned BoE items. But now that we have access to the heirloom prot shield, isn't redbeard's inferior? Or does redbeard's scale better than the heirloom?

You can add Foreman's Leggings to that list. Gloves of the Fang... All sorts of items.
A paladin may be the way to go as they can use every armor class. Alas, agilility items won't do them any good.
I am sure you can go to wowhead and put in some filters to get a complete BoE list of items for lvl 20 and below with the stats you like.

redbeard is 8 str
loom is 4 str
bfd quest shield is 7 str
 
Redbeard offers quite a bit less stamina, less armor and absolutely zero parry. For a protection paladin, the flamescarred draconian deflector is a better overall shield than the other two choices. The parry may be changed to haste or crit come WoD, making it even better for some play styles.
But, that is not why this thread was intentionally written.

It's BiS str. Draconian is more of a tank shield, and stam stacking hpal makes a way better tank than a prot anyway. Then only reason you should be going prot is for damage and in that case you need max str and crit, thus the thorbias and redbeard.
