That all sounds like more fun to me. I didn't know about the mezzing and rooting animation next to a mob thing

I found out the hard way trying to kill the cool looking scorpion things in OT. They all HT, and it was late at night and I was tired and was using the animation to solo at the time. I pull the first to get the animation on it and it runs up and OOF! HT kick in the nuts. I think ok that one just happened to be a shadowknight. Let's see about the next one. OOF! Another HT kick in the nuts. Now I'm staggering away at under half health thinking how the F am I going to get the animation on these things without getting HT. So then I was rooting them and trying to drag it over them, but my ping is pretty bad and sometimes they'd still HT swipe me, also even their DoTs they cast at range is not something I want to be eating, so I started mezzing too.
The casters I've found it's always easiest to lead with the nullify line normally before attempting to slow. They seem to always have either a nasty DS or good buffs or both. But that doesn't work with the animation pet. Because then they'll stick a nasty DoT on me from range before they run over. So I need to lead with mez, then root, then mez again or something to blur, then finagle the animation over towards them to get them to jump on it. Then ideally interrupt their first cast with stun while still being out of melee range. If people want to do that for every caster, while also only getting 50% experience the entire time, be my guest. I just find it all annoying and boring
