Root casted by a level 50 player against another level 50 player with 100MR will probably land 5-8% of the time max. Therefore, a mage pet would have even harder of a chance to land it.

It sounds like you played TZVZ and never touched EQ live PvP before.
well that's what happened while testing it on my druid friend when he had a little over 100 mr. strangely enough even with the pets being as low level as they are their roots will land on higher level players given enough attempts. (they recast every 6 seconds)

in regards to player cast roots, i was shocked the other day when a 44 shaman tried to instill me (being 50) i resisted 4 or 5 times in a row before he gave up and started to dot me. (which all landed) having only 48 MR unbuffed. you would think at least one of those instill would have landed if only for a tick or 2. but resists work weird here i guess.

also Im not sure why people throw this "you must have played TZVZ ect. ect. ect." all the time. to be honest i have no idea what TZVZ is. tho i get the impression it was some other EMU server or something. i Played on RZ back on live as a shadow knight and a paladin. i remember my roots and darkness spells landing much more often then it did here. but that was so long ago my memory is foggy as best, so i wouldn't know for sure.
