Immediate resist check AGAIN to see if it holds
Check every tick from there for hold

^ I get called a liar on stuff like dis but its true and feel free to test on live on an in town guard or other high magic resist npc (Felwithe p.easy to get to). Have my vintage 60wiz if you want dat info to try it.

Players at even con with 80+ magic shouldn't ever be getting rooted or snared by roots/snares that share the same resist value @ least.. go from there. IE 90+ mr on one with -10 resist check etc.

Would be awesome if this was working. Had like a billion fetters spammed on me in pvp and for some ODD reason the first one would almost always land with 168+ MR. (dafuq)
Root is a DoT that does no damage. I'm pretty sure the immediate break you're referring to isn't another resist check, it's that the 6 second global dot tick from the server is hitting right as someone casts root on a mob. If timed right, you could root something and it could instantly break because the root didn't survive the first tick of the spell and thus broke.
