Priest/Rogue

VS.

Rogue/Rogue

This can be difficult or easy depending if you get a Sap on an opposing Rogue at the start or if they get the Sap on your Rogue. The Priest should stay mounted at all times. If your Rogue gets Sapped run around and hopefully you can get away, if they get a stun on you, do not spam Fear, chances are they will pre-Cloak and you will be a sitting duck (especially if they are double Undead). Blow your Trinket early to get Pain Suppression on yourself.

At the beginning if your Rogue gets Sapped close to you, put Shield, Renew, Mending on. Be prepared to use Battle Master's trinket and Pain Suppression early. If it's not double Undead it should be easy considering they will probably use trinket to get out of Fear then you can Blind one. If it's double Undead your Rogue has to off target Gouge and stun both of them. Just keep HoTs on since you probably won't get a cast off and hopefully they don't dodge or resist stun/gouge or it can be bad for you. The start is critical, if they get a head start on you, you will probably lose.

Tried this but its impossible lost almost 100 points, we should have stoped.
Basically i get the opener on one rogue the other oepens on the priest as soon as the rogue leaves my stuns he justs pops evasion the other rogue pops evasion as well, one was undead the other belf, but he eats fear and trinkets blind its just not enough to dps the other rogue, its seems impossible to be honest.

i feel its pointless to stay mounted vs 2 rogues in stealth. what's going to happen is one of the rogues are eventually gonna catch up and sap you, and its going to be when your shield prom and renew are down leaving you extremely vulnerable. what i do against this team is keep myself close to the rogue, not on my mount, and keep all my buffs on me at all times.

This fight's VERY hard if both Rogue's are Undead. If not, then it becomes pretty easy, because they WILL trinket that first fear, and then one will be Blind>Sapped.

the fight is winnable if they are UD.....
I suggest fearing, wasting their UD racial, they then come back to you and focus. YOU MUST pop your trinket, then pain supression. Your avoidance as a priest is key.

As a rogue, you must try to keep your priest alive. You vs 2 rogues=gg
even if 1 is 5%, its VERY hard to finish them with a gouge, blind, sap, ks, ect on you.

SO The name of this game is the priest must survive. Rogue partners.... gouge, poison and blind to keep him alive or else your points just went down the crapper

keep shadow word pain on both rogues if u can no...restealthing aloud..., fear as much as possible...even if they move away from you sometimes that gives u enough time 2 get away 2 pole dance...just make sure they don't run away also...if they restealth ur gonna have the same problem from the start lol w/o pain supression, as a preist i loved it when my rogue put crippling on both the rogues and kept them up although rogues its harder said than done lol.

I would recommend the Holy Nova talent STRONGLY. It works great in arena for snake traps, smoking out Druid healers early, and especially here, if you spam this Rank 1 while jumping around in random directions in all likelihood they will leave you alone since they risk losing stealth and hence their oh so precious cheap shot.

A rogue who can't Sap/CS a priest spamming Nova is pretty terrible.

Anyway.

Priest gets opened on, let's assume you(r) rogue has not been sapped. Put Rogue A through CS > KS, he will 95% of the time trinket the KS since they can't afford to lose the dps time, blind him. Vanish, CS then Gouge Rogue B and the Priest runs the hell away while he heals up and LoS' a Shadowstep. If you're worth your salt as a rogue you should be able to damn near solo both of them now that you have them with their pants down, and if you can't then you deserve to lose.

Id say double UD is pretty impossible, if rogues can survive one rogue on them for 15 seconds — they will win.
Double blind (1-trinket, 2-full) +sap is gg for any priest. They will just put all debuffs like ea+rupture, ks (for insignia). Survive the rogue for that time and then burst.

OR after priest trinkets ks and use ps on himself here goes blind+sap+blind and your rogue is so dead in that time.

or you can reroll dwarf (I was lucky enough to chose Dwarf first :D) stoneform and /laugh at the rogues as ur rogue is owning them and they are trying to catch up to you while being shived

If both rogues are not undead, what me and my partner(rogue) did was.
The first rogue that opens onto me my rogue would get onto him and blind the other, the blinded rogue will most likely trinket which opens him up for a blind(watch that CoS isnt up) the other rogue should be in a KS which allows u to run around freely and heal yourself to full, from then onwards u should be kiting the rogue your rogue is on. faer the other if he gets close and Pain supression if your rogue gets blinded
