Pumice, crimson pots, golem wands, surely someone who takes everquest as serious as Wehrmacht does would be using them from day one? Not to mention cure potions and what not.. Snares/roots and mez did land, hell, enchanters on PvP servers (at least Mythd on TZ) would take on entire groups of people with the use of mez.. Assuming you debuff their resists, spells would land. Saying that 120 MR makes you immune to root is probably not true, but the chance of it landing would be low. Toss a tash/malo on that and its an entirely different story.
If you dont allow these spells to land (and nukes always being partially resisted) then you'll have vztz all over again. Everyone rolling monk/sk/warrior and then you just roll people over. A bard in the melee group and wooh, fun times. Just because CC spells are able to land it does not mean that PvP is RNG - EQ pvp puts A LOT of weight in being prepared. You should be stacking your buffs correctly, have pumice and clickies etc. Same goes for crimson pots/cures... You are turning it more into wow by allowing melees to rip through everything just by having an easily acquired resist set, and thats not how it ever was in EQ
