Rogue / Enchanter Duo

[Etris]

Is it possible? lol.

This is what my buddy and I made. But I'm finding it very hard to attack the mob without being hit as a rogue.

His pet doesn't get taunt right....I can sit until it's half health, but if the mob is rooted it'll still hit me when I get close.

Would charming be the best way?

A friend the other day said he did that combo on live.

There are several easier combos out there that can be super effective. The best in game is monk/shaman imho. But really any healer + melee can be effective

Mobs will always go for a PC player over an NPC, whether a charmed pet is being used or not, and even when its rooted - if the rogue is in range, he'll be first choice.

The only workable way around it I can think of (as you don't have a healer), is to pick some open zones and fear kite. If the rogue has sow pots/jboots particularly it shouldn't be too difficult but obviously with fear kiting comes a degree of danger with adds.

If the rogue picks Innoruuk for a deity (not open to all races), can he get the snare necklace from Neriak? Worth looking into.

This must be a quirk of P1999 because I was recently playing on EQmac and one players pet was pulling agro from another player.
One thing that is true is the monster will always hit you instead of *your own* pet.

I think rogue and warrior are the worst duo partners for an enchanter. You can not really fear kite and nobody heals you. Even a paladin would be a better choice since he can at least heal a bit. So i would say either you dont play a rogue, your friend doesn't play an enchanter or you somehow always look for a healer. Last option would be that the enchanter basically solos and you sit around, every once in a while do a few hits until you are wounded enough and do the killing blows when the mob turns to run. Or you buy huge amounts of bandages.

My brother and I did warrior and chanter on live. Got them to 65, with alot of time spent duoing. You just use alot or runes and bezerker strength type spells. Helped that I was an iksar warrior and used BW alot in downtime. Obviously rog would be alot harder, but enchanter/war isnt impossible, or even that bad.

Backstab when the enchanter stuns? 'Bout the only thing..

[Peekae]

Not the most effective duo unless the chanter can find a way to hold aggro and kite while you backstab (druid / rogue and necro / rogue do this very well)

Im not too familiar on enchanters though I can't remember if they get a snare or just roots / stuns etc

It's possible, but it sucks. The best you can do is basically having the enchanter charm solo while rogue finishes stuff off.

Snare weapon fearkiting?
