Posting a little feedback from pvp in the last few weeks.
Root and snare really are considerably better. Even with as low as 80 mr, you have a good chance to resist. Above 100, your gtg. The rare root or snare that lands you can just pumice, which is how i remember it on live (no going through 10 pumice a day).
Spells like blind and stuns without damage (paladin/cleric or necro scream) are still way OP, even with high resists. On a player target with 100mr + you can chain blind them. With 120mr you can still land stun or screaming terror more times than you fail. This makes these abilities so insanely powerful, you're putting yourself at a disadvantage to do anything else in pvp but those abilities. A paladin can CC 2-3 players at a time with blind, even when opponents have over 100 mr. So not only are they the hardest class to kill, they are capable of effectively locking multiple players down in the process, especially if the players are melees.
