Root was dependent on the caster and mob's level. You could root lowbie dark blues fairly reliably with Enstill and Paralyzing Earth and trust them to last significantly longer than Root (this was based off my experience solo'ing indoors on a Necro in places like HS and Seb).
Shit that was even con and above you're right, it'd break after a handful of ticks. Just use regular root for those.
Green mobs should not be resisting roots and should have it last nearly full duration. Malo'ed mobs as well, because their MR is practically negative.
