5 Box rogue squad

[Rigz]

So just to do something challenging/stupid, "just cause it's there." I've been playing a 5 box team of 4 rogues and a druid.

It's been frikin fun, if a bit frustrating.

Of course the whole point, when it all works, is that stuff just literally explodes.

The difficulty comes from a lack of range, and as can be imagined some nightmare positioning issues. to help with positioning issues I respeced everyone combat though, and it seems to be just as effective, if a little less exciting.

The biggest draw as you can probably imagine is having a 5 box team with stealth. There is just no end to the fun things you can do with that.
The only thing that sucks is I don't enjoy open world pvp, which this team
would excell at.

So to anyone out there who has done this, there must be someone, feel free to chime in with advice.

That combo sounds frustrating off the get go, best of luck to you though - what level have you hit btw?

I have dual box two rogues to 70 before. Tried various specs and tactics. For leveling and grinding, it is combat all the way. Main rogue would lead and aggro the mobs. Once in melee range, I move the main back a little bit so my alt, which is on follow, can hit the mobs as well. Then just SD+SS. It is a bit painful.

For PVP, I went with double shadow step. As shadow step would lineup my rogues perfectly. They could ambush the target and backstab at the same time. With timed kidney shot, any target should be dead if I get the jump on them. Finishing off the first target, I then cloak of shadow + vanish, repeat. Undead is a must if you want to PVP effectively.

With 4 rogues plus a druid, you basically guarantee to take out one target out of stealth. Cloak of shadow + vanish, you can take out the second target as well. With root, blind, sap, cyclone, this group might be very affective in arena as well.

I have to imagine that an all melee team would be a pain in the ass to control effectively. I like to stand back and pew pew.

Rigz, did you roll on Mag? And make sure to keep once rogues lockpicking Maxed out, it's easy money if you're ever in a pinch. Plus if you're on Mag I need some lockboxes opened :P

Its ironic a guy called contents is curious about the contents of his contents.

Trippy shit right there.

Slats feeling philosophical/drunk today?

If I were to venture a guess I'd say drunk.

And I felt embaressed for my chuckle at your "joke"
