I've been using the same 2v2 combo (rogue/priest). We've only just started playing, and like most I've come from a PVE background and have only just started getting the hang of kiting and staying out of LOS of ranged classes.

The biggest problems I keep encountering are double mage combo's. They can nuke my rogue down super fast and whenever I try to pop out to heal him I get counterspelled. Other problem I have is my rogue getting ice trapped, which I dispell ASAP but it's still a long break in dps, plus i'm usually counterspelled around the time this is happening so can't get a heal or dispell off anyway. 3rd problem is their water ele's constantly belting on me, so I'm taking damage and getting interupted. Neither of us can think of a way to combat this combo, does anybody have any ideas?

I'm also having trouble getting belted by rogue/warrior combo's. The two of them always open up on me. The best luck I've had is just by kiting until they get on the rogue, and once they are on him I try and stay out of LOS, while sheilding/POM/Renew/PS and FH when needed.

The smart ones seem to shift focus and come straight after me when I dismount, and I'll just start running with my instants ticking over until I get intercepted then it's pretty much all over. My usual "OMG SAVE ME" rotation goes PW:S > PS > POM > Renew (if above 50%) or FH (if below 50%). I use fear depending on whether Berserker rage is up. If I'm being stunned up by a rogue I try and use it early to get him of me but I'm usually slowed down way too much. I try to use my trinket to start kiting but I'm immediately intercepted again and then I get taken down cause my FH's are interupted and I'm just stunned way too much.

Throw the fact that I've only got 207 resilience and 9.6khp with Fort and I'm not doing overly well.

Here is a link to my armory for those who are interested, but the gear check isn't really what I'm after, it's more the strat that I'm concerned about because I can't think of anything that could help more... Carlton's Armory Profile

If anybody can give any tips it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!!
