[WP] WP or RP for SW?

Hey,

My brother is good at ganking with his Shadow Warrior, so i decided to re-roll to Order and accompany him.

I know that AM or WL would be the superior option for such duo, but don't like their mechanics.

As i main Zealot, was thinking of going either ddRP or ddWP with SW. Which of these two would be better option?

RP:
+ easy to switch to heals when needed
+ stagger
+ beard
+ SW can help with AP, but increased regen doesn't work during channeling, right?
- one of the worst dds in the game
- is his healing viable in DD build? I'm talking about all these "heal 50% of damage dealt".

WP:
+ bald
+ good AA damage with SW's armor debuff
What else? I don't know anything about WPs, thus created topic in this forum.

What would you choose?

Thanks!

u clearly dont want to play meele when he is range.
U Gank, so ... u hit and run, or?
No time to close the distance to a foe, kill it and get out before reinforcements overhelm u.
I would say ... Archmage is the goal, dots are heavy, littl heal ... a aoe slow. Think about it.

I know that AM is the best option, but AM is neither bearded, nor bald :roll:

RP, you can do damage, you can heal, you can stagger, you can snare, you can stay at range, which is probably most important if you're doing open

RP would be just fine. They actually have pretty good kiting tools. Stagger for recovery and a AoE snare. Also got a instant cast armor debuff and gives SW infinite AP.
