Whats the best alt class to dual box with a rogue main? I've been using a druid but it just doesn't feel right. The druids buffs are ok and all, but I'm only using him as a caster and the damage and heals aren't that great. I was thinking of maybe using a lock for the dots, and the soulstone later on.
If you melee with the druid, and 'step through' the mob with your main you should be fine. One of you will always be 'behind' the target for max damage.

When I read the title, i was thinking druid. The druid as a caster will do much better at higher level (moonkin) druids are best at feral at the early levels. I think the best class for a rogue is any of the hybrid classes. My first character was a paladin, and anytime I played a non healing class, I hated it. A Shaman might help u too, should be pretty easy to macro in some totem drops, and a couple of dps buttons. A paladin wouldn't hurt, they can take a few more hits than the other hybrids, is easy to macro healing, are the best single target healers, and have useful buffs.
I think in the long run, the druid will be a godsend. You can both stealth around to avoid ganking, or to cause it, stealth instance runs are possible, and the druid can heal and rez when necessary (maybe get engineering on both for jumper cables)

so should I keep my druid in bear for and then shapeshift? or not worry about the beast forms until I can get cat? Right now the rogue is 14 and druid is 13 and I haven't done the bear form quest yet on the druid.

I would just have the druid tailing as the caster/healer backup until u get cat form, and then you will have a much easier time.

I'd go with druid as well. Stealth team will enable you to do interesting things.
I vote for the druid too. It enables you to do funny things in PvP. I would use the druid for caster DPS and occasional healing when he comes out of stealth.

Feral Druid.
Just let your druid charge into the mob you want to kill, it will stop following your rogue at that time and you can get in position behind the mob and kill it :P
works well on multitarget tanking in instances too. <3 swipe.
ff and mangle are pretty cool debuffs for a rogue aswell.
