Hi Maglars,
And welcome to the PvP side of the World!
What is a good team up class for a Rogue?
2v2: Mage; Shadow Priest; Feral Druid; Rogue; Ret Pala, ... Double dps is fun!
You also can check the top teams and filter by class on our
community website. That should give you a good perspective.
Is it better to go 2v2? 5v5? Or is that a personal preference?
I’d say it’s about personal preference and logistical reasons.
Until 5.2, there was a big reason why people played 3v3/5v5 over 2v2, which was t2 weapons, these weapons of higher item level required you to have a very high rating but excluded ratings from the 2v2 bracket, so a lot of players switched over to 3v3 when this change was introduced.
But alas, here we are again, 2v2 will be viable once again for t2 weapons because the rating requirement has been abolished with patch 5.2/new season. Now it’s simply a matter of how fast you can reach the required amount of conquest points before you get to grab your new t2.
Personally I love 2v2’s, always did. For me it’s mostly about the simplicity, the awareness and the control that you can get in there. There’s also generally better communication in 2v2 because it’s easier to talk between 2 people, and you don’t have to necessarily lead the game, it can be 50/50, whereas in 5v5’s there is usually someone clearly identified as the leader, responsible for calling all the shots and switches, and it has to be that way because otherwise it would be complete and utter chaos.
3v3’s are really fun as well, I still prefer 2v2 though, it’s much easier to play without a schedule, if you and your friend are online then you can immediately queue for it. The chances of everyone on a 5v5 being online at the same time without a schedule are certainly much lower.
