I played about 25 games last night as DS with a SS rogue. We went from 1550 to 1650 but then we ran into some mage/rogue and ret/dps teams. The mage/rogues we finally got a handle on and could beat most of the time. They were probably shitty, but I'll still take the points. The ret/dps gave us a world of hurt, though. The worst was a ret/rogue where one or both were humans. Fuck perception. The best we did was have me come out of stealth and HoT myself and go moonkin and start dps on the paladin before the rogue got an opener on me. That at least gave me an armor buffer when they started in on me. The real problem became that I had to no way to escape. With JoJ on me and all the stuns I can't create any separation. At the time my rogue got on the opposing rogue and tried to keep him stunned up enough for me to get away, but with JoJ on me and BoF on the paladin I didn't stand a chance.

After the game we decided that the next time we faced a team like that we'd put our rogue on their paladin and leave me to handle their rogue. Having me start in moonkin with the extra armor seemed to work far better than just letting the rogue catch me out of stealth with perception. How are other people handling this?
