1v1 Holy pallyFollow
Do we stand a chance? Could really use some pointers solo'ing a holy pally. I seem to kill myself faster than I can kill them.
It's tricky. I haven't tried holy pallies much as a rogue since WotLK has been out, but generally you need to prolong the fight until they burn bubble and generally BoP too.
Using saps and restealths is really the only way to do it, TBH, if they're any good.
When you return to stealth, you generally can't go too far away, since then all they have to do is sit down to drink/eat and you're pretty boned.

As holy pally main, now in the 1900's(woo finally) I can tell you, I can solo kite a rogue forever. It used to be a problem when I didn't have the gear or the spec(deep holy isn't good against rogues) I would get slaughtered in a cs--->ks. But now, I can pretty much burn them down slowly while only going about 50% health. I have 2 CC's I can apply, and I am most likely running faster than you when I have freedom(judgement on you, 15% speed on me) so your damage will be sucky then.
The only thing I can think of is a nice double coldblood burst on the paladin when he has no trinket and no freedom to break the kidney shot AFTER he has bubbled...
Basically get pala a little low then go for the (vanish) cs--->ks--->vanish garotte while blowing double cold blood on mutilates. If you can't kill him then you are screwed...
Yeah, gl with that fight.

Aside from vanish, how do you get a restealth off on a good healadin? The only thing I can come up with is Blind. The second I start making a bit of distance I get a judgement or holy shock thrown on me.
My arena partner is a healadin, and the class is probably one of the few that are nigh impossible for a rogue to beat right now. I sometimes win the fight if he doesn't use his bubble, but if he does Retribution aura simply kills me faster than I can kill him twice. You can't sprint away, you can't burst or stunlock them down, you can't kite them or stay out of melee range and keeping in melee range will only get yourself killed.
Like Devzzz mentioned, the only thing that's worked for me so far is to lul them into a false sense of security and then blasting all my CD's for a big burst. But even then, this can only be done after they've popped their bubble and at that point I myself am usually at 50% hp anyway.

Not to mention the new taunt which has a 30yd range and does a tiny bit of holy dam.
Theo that a GT-R in your avatar?

Yup, and the Stig.
As for this thread, yeah, like I've said, I haven't played my rogue in a long time, and it's been even longer since I did a 1v1 against a holy pally. Holy Shock is probably going to be used to self-heal the paladin if you're doing enough damage, but the new taunt is something I don't have experience with.
In the end, it's really up to you to do enough damage that the paladin has to throw enough FoLs that you can restealth. There's not much way to win other than that.
That show is badass. What happened to the black Stig?
