Notice I said root, not snare.
This. 100% true. This happened all the way up to velious. I remember as a Wizard soloing in Eastern waste rygorr camps, rooting the 4th would break the first root and it would run all over the place like it was feared and snared, untill you killed one of the other 3.

Most wizards who soloed a lot learned this, because of adds, and/or having to break camps with only root as help.

I also knew this mechanic very well on my monk killing greens for tradeskills.Pull a train of 20 mobs, the closest 3 would attack you, the rest would sit back about 10 feet walking back and fourth untill one of the first 3 died, then the closest "waiter" would move in and start attacking. made farming a lot easier as you didnt have to fight a few at a time time, then run around having to pull more.
