Starting on PvP

from Stardock Forums
I'm going to make a character on a PvP server (Horde)... I'm deciding between Tauren Druid and Undead Rogue. As I see it, on one hand, I have the Druid, who I would think is more survivable. Lower priority target, has SOMETHING to deal w/ everything, can take damage as bear, some spellcasting firepower, agile cat form w/ high DPS... good all-arounder, I would think. On the other hand, I'm thinking Rogue, which w/ a high DPS and low armor, I would think is a HIGH priority target... it does it's work pretty much exclusively on the front line. BUT, I think it would be more fun to play... set up ambushes, surprise punks from the shadows or sprinting in, poison... lay in wait for some poor sod to stroll by my invisible arse, then POW... waste em. And they're not without escape options... run and hide. Not very noble, but c'mon... Undead Rogue... it doesn't get much more evil than that!

Opinions?

I've seen a lot of Tauren Druids, but most Undead seem to be magic users of one kind or another. One thing's for sure, low armor can be a royal pain. Even with my Alliance Druid character it's a very noticable difference when a Paladin puts his divine aura on you. In bear form you truly become a tank with the extra armor boost.

I have actually played both to a good extent and have liked my rogue much more, problem is as a rogue you are one of many, as a druid you are one of a few...

I guess it depends on what server you're playing on. I've been seeing a lot of druids, rogues, hunters, priests and paladins lately, but very few magi, warlocks or even pure warriors.
