New Player, Question about RK duo?

Me and my wife started playing LOTRO and she choose to be an RK. I was wanting to know what would be the best class I could pick that would enable us to do the most content as a duo and why? Thanks for any info that you can provide. We joined the Brandywine server hope to see you in game cheers.

LoTRO is very class friendly for duos almost any combo would work. I would go with Warden, Guardian or Captain though since she can either heal or nuke. A warden teamed witha RK would be a deadly combo.
I miss DAoC
Hmm. This is just my opinion, but you're definitely going to want something not as squishy as the RK:
1. Captain: buffs, small group tanking, group healing, saves your butt in tough binds. Early on the capt is kind of boring, but once you hit the late teens, early twenties they get really good (my favorite class, btw)
2. Warden: decent off-tank, self healing, so the RK doesn't have to focus on just healing. Warden is a harder class to play since you need to remember a lot of combos, but worth it from what I've read.
Current: None
Played: WoW, CoX, SWG, LotRO, EVE, AoC, VG, CO, Ryzom, DF, WAR
Tried: Lineage2, Dofus, EQ2, CoS, FE, UO, Wurm, Wakfu
Future: The Repopulation, ArcheAge, Black Desert, EQN
First of all, welcome to Middle-earth. I would agree with the above posts that teaming your wife's RK with a Guardian, Warden, or Captain would probably be the best choice for a duo to experience a considerable amount of content. I run a Champion with a friend who plays a RK, and though we are able to run a great number of tougher quests, my champion is not able to hold the aggro or pull threat when the RK goes Nuker. Even dropping my dual-wield and grabbing a shield, I find this to be less beneficial that probably running the RK with a Guardian or even the Warden. Good luck.
Don't forget, the hunter has ports all over the place. If your a time short person, its a good choice.
