Thinking that this is During SoV Era Though;
It clearly States in the Patch Notes Jan 9 2001
*Root and Snare*
Root-type spells and "snare" type spells now use a separate spell
effect.
Previously, "Root" spells would overwrite any snare effect upon the
target. When the root would wear off, the target began moving at full
speed. With this change, when root wears off, snare will still be in
effect. This has a few added effects on the other end.
For instance, root will no longer cancel SoW or Journeyman's Boots
effects. It also allowed us to correct a long-standing bug that was
allowing bards to cancel root on themselves by playing Selo's
Accelerando if Selo's was in effect at the time that the bard was
rooted. As mentioned in a previous patch where the first part of this
bug was fixed, this was not the intended effect.
Later on Down the patch Notes it states Which is Jan 17 2001;
Bug Fixes*
- Fixed a bug that caused "root" and "snare" type spells to function
incorrectly when stacked. They should now stack properly.
Now Depending on how far we are down the list on the patch notes if we have gotten to the point of where root + snare is stackable then it is wrong ; if we are before this time then it is correct with the timeline reguardless if it was never meant to be the devs imo are going by the timeline. I am a wizard myself and don't like it but this is not my project and this is the way they have been doing it so why change now.
