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

[Swish]

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.

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.

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

[Ephirith]

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

[Tecmos Deception]

Snare weapon fearkiting?

[Splorf22]

I duoed Verix with an enchanter chainstunning on my warrior, and I've done similar stuff on my enchanter chainstunning for Bleach. So its not ideal but it does work. Tecmos is probably right, your best bet would be to get some snare weapons, chainstun until it lands, and then fearkite. Probably your best bet is to find a tank and a healer though.

I could be wrong but I don't think NPCs always attacking PCs over pets is classic. I vaguely remember having my pet tank sometimes as a mage on Live.

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.
