Now that I'm on the back stretch to 60 with the pretty much the easiest team ( Pal,Pr,3xM), I'm looking towards my next comp. I definatly want a max level rogue.

I don't think it's been tried that much, but if anyone has had a rogue on their team and can chime in, it will be appreciated.

Im thinking of Druid tank, and Druid healer, only because I like that they both have stealth, and I like to have a 2nd healer.

For Dps, im open to 3 rogues, for an all stealth team, but if that's too hard to manage then it be happy with only 1 on my team.

There are multiple who wanted to main a rogue and thus have included him on their intial team. The general consensus has been that it is wise to just have 1 rogue and drive from him to optimize combo points and energy expenditures.

On my main warrior I have zoomed in VFXes of my other warriors to see their rage and whether Sweeping Strikes is ready to fire (and once fired what the remaining cooldown is). Often SS is ready on one but not the other warriors and I can pop one and wait for the others but need to wait to switch from Combat stance to Beserker stance. You can try to do something similar with Rogues but my concern would be that is kinda complicated for 2 or more and not really conducive to boxing. Frankly I personally find trying to keep 3+ Warriors in sync enough for me and would not really want to try it for multiple rogues but your experience and preferences may be different.

Best of luck to you and interested in what team composition you decide and in hearing how it turns out.

Edit: I would be very interested in seeing a 2Druid+3Rogue team in action (DruidTank+DruidHealer+3Rogue DPS) and especially if folk are able to run the top dungeons at cap with it. Personally I have enough challenge with 3Warriors+2Paladins (with strong mitigation) such that I don't think I would do well with such a team (but I am very interested in an all stealth team).

Yea there's not too much info about boxing with Rogue's. I'm thinking of an all Night Elf team of Rogue, Druids and Priest. Numbers may vary, but those are the classes in thinking of.

Personally I was thinking of doing something like:
DruidTank+DruidHeals+2 Hunters (Night Elves with prowling cats)+Rogue

I think at least duo Druid is the key that gives you a mobile stealth tank + stealth healer option.

Personally I can only see needing 1 rogue and even if my brother duoed with me I likely would go on the druid(s) with him on the rogue.

The hunters are in there as while they can't move while stealth their cats can so it can give some fun guarding/gank options. My original main when not duoing with my brother back in vanilla was a NE Hunter with a cat and I really enjoyed guarding the flag in WSG with him...

Let us know if you do make a party and if so how it goes...

Rogues(more so) and Druids have been the two classes that i avoid boxing unless it's an all same class group. They just can't be played like they are meant to be played solo and lose sooo much value when boxed. Even when i go all 5 druids or all 5 rogues i feel im missing so much. If you can master boxing either of these classes, i tip my hat to you cause that is impressive.
