Yeah being chain rooted in PvP at low lvls when you buy magic resist gear is terrible.

At higher levels, you shouldn't be playing expecting it to land if you were a live player anyways.

5 people at once weren't spamming root, ever, in a fight I can recall. Completely not classic and detrimental. It completely favors a zerg or otherwise unskilled setup.

Why do you think stuns and roots get diminishing returns and long recasts in modern PvP mmos? It's completely gamebreaking otherwise.

Not to mention, if you are any sort of good, you don't need it. Even better, if you played classic EQ you remember it this way and shouldn't be favoring it. Root was used to cull nakeds or control pets (that didn't have magic resist). Magic resisting a pet made it immune or break almost instantly if it ever did land. That's how it worked, plenty of people played in this setting and were fine with it.

You can come talk to me on skype or IRC or something if you want to debate this.
