This thread is bullshit, how do you define cowardice in a video game?
It's a fucking game, and rogues are supposed to vanish and have the tools they have to leave combat.

It obviously rogues. They are constantly hiding in the shadows.
I play rogue and voted for Rogue! Tho I find them more dubious and thieve like. We come out from nothing, assassinates that poor flower picking player and vanishes away seeking our next pray!
I don´t think you can say that any class is cowardly! All classes have certain elements on what they are.. but none of them are cowards! They go in to short range battle against monsters and other creatures, and at the same time they are at war with an other faction!
Australia you can s**k it, Azeroth danger .. there's some danger!
How the hell is this even a discussion? Hunters and mage more then rogue? You obviously don't play the game. A rogues entire strategy is to run around in stealth. Pop out and blow all cds on someone and get a kill. If the person doesnt die then the rogue vanishes and waits until all cds are off then does it again.
If what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Then I should be a god by now.
Your class is being branded cowardly, not yourself. Playing the game as intended is also irrelevant to whether it is cowardly or not.
If I had a class that had one button that one shot people, and then people said my class was cheap, I wouldn't say "it's not cheap because I'm playing the game as it was intended".
This entirely.
Generally people view stealth, crowd control and ranged attacks as cowardice.
No idea why, since they are all valid forms of warfare.
A General worthy of his uniform would never frown away from using any valid military tactic that results in warfare victory - barring some violations of "war rules" like human rights etc...
Any class I play. Because I suck so much at pvp I don't even try and fight back. I just run till I am out of combat and fly away.
Which is why I love my Windwalker monk. So many tools for escaping.
rogue on first with all their stealth and combat evading tricks.
followed up by hunters, mainly due too feign death and camouflage.
I vote the next one should be which class is best at dual wielding 2-handed weapons.
But yeah, I added to the huge pile of votes for Rogue. It's just how the class works. You're supposed to vanish and run when you're at a disadvantage, and you're supposed to sucker punch/wait until your target is at a disadvantage. Rogues are all about winning by any means necessary, even if what they do is considered cowardly.
anyone who decides to pounce me while i am busy dealing with something a little more significant than them.
Far to easy to say rogue, but as a hunter I'd say the hunter, stay at distance and get the pet to do if for you
and I do have a rogue
Rogues are just opportunists. Of course you're going to get ganked if you wonder off away from other people, or pull 10-mobs.
All clases have a way to escape combat though, so i don't know why people are bringing that up?
Druids, hands down. I've never known a druid that doesn't stealth, attack, then root/cyclone, run away, heal to full and repeat. All done with mostly instant cast spells. At least a rogue can't shape shift into multiple escape artist forms, and heal to boot.
