[quote quote=20435]Rogue/Cleric is always something I’ve wanted to be able to so probably that
Opinions?

I was thinking the exact same thing. In EQII, my two favorite toons were a thief and a cleric. However, I don't think we know enough about the classes to be able to determine how a rogue/cleric combo would work in this game. We've seen examples of how a fighter/mage would work, but what abilities would rogue/cleric bring that would support each other? I mean, stabbing some one in the back and then healing them seems rather counter
productive :-)

Waiting to see if a xxxx/rogue class will get a shadow meld augment. Meaning the classes who have an aggro mitigation ability might be able to augment it with a shadow meld type rogue ability. The augmented ability would enable a complete aggro dump which might be especially handy for non-tanks.

In addition a bard/rogue could augment a "Convince" ability with a rogue aggro dump and be able to transfer aggro from one player to another similar to a Misdirect ability - Convince the boss mob that the cleric/cleric is not the danger but the tank/tank is.

A tank/rogue pair could aggro dump and swap off on the raid boss using this augmented ability rather than just "When I taunt, you /dance".

So planning on tank/cleric but could see tank/rogue when warranted.

I'm leaning towards Cleric/Bard or Cleric/Fighter. Primary healer with some offense or utility.

ArchivedUser

Cleric / Cleric
Cleric / Tank
Cleric / Bard

Depending on more info later on abilities and how the classes interact.
Also probably at some point almost exclusive to how stealth works either

Rogue / Rogue
Rogue / something else horribly annoying in pvp

I'm thinking some variation of Mage/Cleric/Bard

Whichever variation provides the most player buffs, enemy debuffs and least amount of me actually DPSing or being a primary healer.

I'm thinking either Mage/Cleric or Mage/Bard are the two most likely.

I like 2-handed warrior, rogue, and mage type classes most. It really depends on the spells, weapon, and armor looks for me. Going in blind I'd probably choose rogue.

ArchivedUser

I really want to RP a Drunken Dwarf Bard/Bard its going to be glorious

ArchivedUser

I'm looking torwards:

Cleric/Mage
Cleric/Ranger
Cleric/Fighter

I'd like to mainly stay supportive, but I would also like to do some damage if I need to. I'm assuming the sub classes will be a lot weaker and give you a decent boost, so a fighting secondary for bad scenarios sounds pretty decent right now.

Everyone is coming up with interesting ideas though, can't wait to see a bunch or rogues running around by the look of this thread lol.

Im interested in Bard/Summoner Would be pretty awesome to buff pets up like a solo army.

ArchivedUser

I'm thinking Fighter/Mage or Fighter/Summoner. I really like weapon/Melee classes that use a mix of magic. My fav classes from gw2 is Chronomancer/mesmer and Druid, So something like those I would like, a mixture of combat and magic.

Ranger/Mage
Ranger/Rogue
Rogue/Bard
Cleric/Rogue
Bard/Tank
Tank/Bard

Mage/Summoner

ArchivedUser

I was planning on Summoner/ ?

Can't really decide on a second class

Summoner / Tank for beefier summons?
Summoner / Mage spell casting summons?
Summoner / Bard Permanently speed buffed summons?
Summoner / Ranger Summoning at greater range so I'm even further from danger?
Summoner / Rogue Stealthed summons?
Summoner / Cleric HEAL TRAIN
Summoner / Fighter THIS. IS. SPARTA!

Too many unknowns.

Rogue/ranger or rogue/rogue prolly. but bard throws a whole new aspect to it all. Loved the bard in Rift.

I'm a rogue at heart.

ArchivedUser

Cleric/cleric at first and then I'll try other cleric/support classes. I love support classes and my enjoyment of a game usually depends on whether a full-support character is useful in a party or any kind of team play. I've played some games where full-support characters are not a viable build because the team can survive without one and it's sad.

ArchivedUser

Three classes. will check which suits me most and play with that
1.rogue/rogue or rouge/ranger
2. summoner/rogue
3.mage/rogue
these ones I will be playing. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm more of the Warrior/Rogue mindset of sorts but many of the class combinations do intrigue me. I'm probably thinking of some sort of Warrior or Bard combo with a secondary of a roguish type. Just general world traveler etc.

ArchivedUser

Cleric/Something (whatever provides for best personal defense likely)


Secondary top choices::
1) Tank secondary - Some extra CC would be great, and just higher resistances

2) Mage secondary - Magical shielding, and more hybrid heal/dps

3) Summoner secondary - Angelic creatures to assist your fellow mates or demons if that's your roll

Secondaries that I likely won't choose:

1) Rogue secondary - Doubt you can heal and do anything stealthy at the same time, perhaps you can drop aggro, but who cares if the team is dead

2) Fighter secondary - Maybe if you become a monk and use martial skills to help escape, but not sure how else this pertains to my role

3) Ranger secondary - No idea. Higher cast range on healing would be alright though.

Small chance secondaries:

1) Cleric secondary - Doubling down seems very boring, even if it's likely very viable

2) Bard secondary - Likely synergizes well, but just doesn't fit me from an rp standpoint in my mind

Prediction: Cleric/Tank

I'm thinking of doing a py'rai summoner/cleric or summoner/mage. I love playing as druid classes when ever I can though.

ArchivedUser

Summoner/tba and probably gonna be going for the breeding/taming profession as seems like it would be fun.

ArchivedUser

Definitely hoping to go summoner/mage given more details.

ArchivedUser

A Summoner/Ranger has me intrigued . . . but time will tell.

ArchivedUser

Finly made up my mind.

Cleric / Ranger

:))

Ranger/Tank to make a <del datetime="2017-05-17T07:33:03+00:00">Stone Arrow</del> tanky bowman.

Tank/Cleric aka Paladin!

Rogue/Rogue or Rogue/Mage

ArchivedUser

Summoner/Cleric, bringing down the wrath of heaven.

Tank/Rogue? Anything that lets me have a big ass sword and hit some big ass damage. Big ass armor. Big ass game. Big ass PvP.
