Otoh, a good dagger (mutilate) build has it's advantages once you get
to level 70. It does respectable damage in PvE if you're in a group
and it's a lot of fun in PvP since, unlike shadowstep, you have the
DPS to actually kill healers! <g>  

My Rogue is Shadowstep build and I got to a tower in AV just as a
resto druid got it.  I managed to kill her but it took longer than the
timeout for the tower to be destroyed!  :(

I might try to work out or research a mutilate pvp build before I
splash out the honor for the pvp swords.  I've tried it in pve twice
(low 60s), I liked it the first time but not the second time (high
60s) for some reason.

Not sure how your gear compared but my resto druid with less than top
gear (1 x vengeful, 1 x merciless, the rest gladiator, full
vindicator) was taken apart by a rogue in arena the other day, around
the 1580 level.

I forgot his/her name as I wanted to check the gear difference.

I con't compare the gear levels but I'm at the lower end of the pvp
gear levels I think. My rogue has about 230 resilience.


People say rogues have a hard time killing resto druids, in which case
I want to know what I'm doing wrong.

...

I last a little longer
in bear but I'm just prolonging the inevitable.

Any tips?

The druid wasn't looking to kill me. She was stopping me get the
tower back before the timer expired and she did the job. Bash,
cyclone and heal were the main problem for me. 6 seconds is more than
enough time to heal to full leaving me having to start again. Also,
she managed to get cyclone off a few times whilst I had no interrupts
left (or I was too slow with them). What finally allowed me to kill
her was a timely blind to stop the cyclone but her job was done by
then and I was only killing her out of spite :)
