Classic Zek servers most people in full resist gear probably had under 7% chance to get hit with CC, although I'd guess that a small window was there no matter what where the curve plateaus (say 2-3%).

That resist system was fine, seeing as people still used it in pvp (since it is spammable + EQ pvp lasts forever) just for the off chance to stick it.


It's a worse game when you force in CC, and pumice/jboots are even more meta than they used to be. I haven't done Big Ass Raid PvP yet, but that assist-train-on-the-rooted-guy Amuk posted about sounds pretty shitty.

Hell even as a melee, I don't want to kill someone because he got spammed with root. The PvP I remember was I had to glue to people to kill them. Root was usually only a factor if I was going against enchanter or 60 shaman.
