It's not.
1. You aren't going to be tanking with the pet, so "beefy pet" is irrelevant.
2. CoTH is going to be very niche in terms of actually using it in a duo. You are going to be hunting something very specific. Sneak + Lockpick is going to be more useful in general. Every duo is going to be missing something if you go down that road.
4. A Mage is only contributing DPS in a Mage/Shaman duo as well. Damage shields are DPS, backstab is burst DPS. Numbers-wise a rogue has higher average DPS than a Mage, and Mages can burst better when spending a lot of mana.

Sneak/lock pick are irrelevant and highly situational. As I said, if you want to access the 1-2 extra camps that require lock pick, then just level a rogue to 50 once the shaman gets higher. Had sneak pulling not been nerfed, I might have agreed with you.
A rogue simply does not offer enough over a mage in a duo. A rogue is more ideal in a 4 man competition where you already have multiple other roles covered.
