Discussion - Mage or Rogue

[Gibevad]

Greetings all!
This is my question which would be more reliable dps Mage running mq2afnuke or a Rogue Running mq2rogue as of right now i am running the mage and she does do good dmg using nuke ok Opinions and reasons.........Go (im thinking of making a rogue to replace my mage)

Both are great..and both have benefits to the grp beside dps. COTH is amazing..id be lost without it.
SOS is also amazing id be lost without it.

The amount of dps your going to output will depend a great deal on the fight you are in, and what is the rest of your group makeup? I am a HUGE fan of mq2rogue so I would go with the rogue dps

Bard warrior shaman cleric mage and zerker

With that crew, I would be more inclined to go with the rogue strictly from a dps perspective. My reasoning would be that you'll be focusing your bard twists on melee ADPS already with a melee heavy group. Plus you don't have a high demand for pet gear, only shaman's wolf.

On the flip side though with a perspective of utility, only the Shaman can gate, so the other toons have to rely on other means. Making the Mage's COTH very useful to that group.

Rogue

Shroud of Stealth is the win.

Rogue with that group, and SoS is super handy. You can even do Rogue COH using SoS and a rez token. Drag two corpses (one is cleric), rez the cleric with the token. Cleric rez's third PC. Drop campfire and CF the others in. Or kill them all, drag them in and rez cleric - the cleric rez's the rest. More death and more dragging but also works.

i generally run thre and campfire but my mage is awsome for coth i love it

That group is set up to run pure melee way better than casters so I would definitely recommend the rogue over the mage for dps.

i went with the rogue its way more reliable dps the mage has good dps but its no were near as reliable

Yeah, rog makes most sense, however you will see it repeated many times go with what you want, unless its 5 chanters and a pally, can make it work :P There are several good mage tools on the site you can use (XGEN, RGmerc's, KA/MA builds) that make mages a very steady DPS contributor. and who doesnt like CoTh?.. although the rog corpsedrag with MQ2Rog is so amazing also lol...

i do switch them back and fourth to keep all my toons at the same levels i will continue to try other tools to improve my mage i have tried mq2afnuke and it works great most of the time.

mage, rogues are awesome but there's just so many perks to running them. Plus...if stuff goes sideways mage pets can recast (instantly if you keep the Suspend Companion one). Can't even begin to say how nice it is to know that if for some reason the tank dies, there at least 2 mage pets there to smooth things over.

Personal opinion, but you can create some amazing builds using just KA for mages.

Single mage...might agree..dual mages...no fail...triple mages = heaven. 2mil hits back-to-back with alliance with everything else (pets, ds, twincast) on top.
