    Sure thing,

    Rogue, has the best single target damage in the game with limited AOE damage. Stealth mechanic is it's niche, but it's temp. stealth and doesn't keep you hidden all the time. You can dodge out of the way of attacks.

    CW, has some decent damage, both AOE and single target, but really shines with CC. Uses a short range teleport to get out of the way of attacks.

    Both are great choices.

    Depends on your play style really.
    TR is all about DPS, and stealth whilst CW cc's and has moderate magic damage.

    They both take some skill, but from me being a CW myself I would advise you that it's not really an easy class to master.
    Sure we can keep most mobs/players contained, but if you want to do any sort of damage, you need to know what moves/feats work well with eachother.

    If you can't play a CW right, you're just going to be miserable, lol.
    Good luck !

    About the CW - your CC does NOT work on bosses. Just FYI. I often feel kind of useless trying to control the trash ads while everyone else just pounds on the bosses.
    Other than that, the CW is a fun class.

    Well, that's true, but I have found that it's one of the more important aspects of the game. In this game, the guardian fighter really does not have the abilities needed to keep everything glued to him %100 of the time. Couple that with how much threat clerics produce and you end up with lots of adds trying to kill the cleric. The CW and GWF are amazing at keeping the Cleric alive in these situations. It's just not how everyone is used to playing, but I think it will start to become more popular to have a tank and rogue on the big boss and CW and GWF killing the huge swarms of adds that run straight to the cleric.
