Hello,
My girlfriend will be rolling a rogue for classic and I’m unsure of what would be the best class to have synergy with her rogue. We will mostly be doing world PvP, of course questing and then battlegrounds.
I am ruling warrior out because of the dependability on a pocket healer/ gearing.
I’m torn between hunter or mage. Both seem like they have great CC and also damage capabilities. Is there any reason one of these would be better than the other?
I have played a resto shaman in BFA but if I were to heal in classic, I think priest would have a good pairing with rogues and heals to keep us alive during questing and PvP could always come in handy.
Anyone have good suggestions to pair with a rogue?
Mage are the best crowd controllers. I would say that. When you start Blizzard farming, she can pick off the stragglers or CC them.
Given that you’re posting on a druid I’m guessing you’ve considered and rejected that option. But some of my favourite memories from vanilla are of playing a druid and doing 2-man wpvp with a good rogue partner. So much versatility between the two, and of course both having stealth you can always set the terms. If your end game focus was on raiding, maybe not so much. But it works pretty well in bgs as well, and stealth capping AB flags is always a hoot.

Druid, you have heals, CC with roots, and double stealth. It was really one of the best 1, 2 punches in classic.

You mentioned world PvP, which means that the rogue will need help with recovery and snaring and druid is the best option for this. Not only you are able to support the rogue in combat as a druid, you can also cat stealth and lurk around picking any fights you two may want to do out in the world.

Another rogue, druid, paladin, or shaman always makes a good duo. I prefer double rogue though myself for world pvp, but the druid and rogue combo was big fun too. You can do the hunter or mage that you mentioned, it’s not going to hinder the rogue. Play what you like, don’t feel like you have to pocket heal for her. Since you’ll both be playing together you can coordinate easily. Just get ready to be left on the hunter or mage when the poop hits the fan, rogue vanish and gone hehehe.

I’d definitely go druid for the versatility, heals for rogue, both stealth, track humanoids (avoid ganks), can tank or heal if needed, can combo openers in world PvP, crip psn making up for the lack of Infected Wounds.
(I can’t decide between leveling rogue or feral first, but if I were leveling with someone else then I’d definitely prefer them to be one of those two).
Hunter/Mage are both great pairings. I’d play whichever you prefer. Both have things that work very well with rogue.
Female dwarf rogues go well with male gnome warriors.
A stealth class, so another rogue or druid.

Why wouldn’t you pair with druid. Druid can heal and tank for rogue. Druid can stealth with rogue. Seems like good match up.

rogue or druid
If you are interested in pvp it would be way more fun if both could stealth.
Druid, as long as one of you is a skinner and one of you is a leatherworker.
