IE: If you have 51 magic resist against an even con, root should never land.

Playing here I found myself wearing any amount of magic resist in every slot just to have any better chance of dealing with root. Players shouldn't have to wear a tranix crown just to deal with root/snare or even be at a 2% chance. In a 30v30 if the enemy has 10 casters, you are looking at a 20% chance to be rooted every time they all try to root you so the mouth breathers who leave auto attack on can just roll over you and instagib.

I always wore a froglok crown in pvp, and certainly didn't have to have jac rings over diamond. I didn't get hit for full damage wildfires/sunstrikes really ever at 120 fire. I also certainly didn't try to spam non-lures on players that I knew had full resist gear.
Would you agree with making it so 51+ MR on an even con would make you immune to root? That's basically base resist + resist magic.

Definitely agree on wearing jacinth over diamond. I don't even think I had jacinth or wolf's eye gear on RZ, but I was in full diamond gear 100% of the time (even PVE, easy to get away with as an ench).

So I guess the debate becomes, do we adjust the scale so you essentially make yourself immune to CC with less effort than now, or do we try to make a system where you're getting hit with MR based spells sometimes but they have far less an impact?

What about making MR spells much easier to resist, but MR debuffs have a greater effect on players to encourage people debuffing more?
