Not this.

My shaman will cast malise on a mob when I want to root or poison it, and it seems like regardless of malise being on the mob or not, root sucks for my troll shaman. Sucks meaning mob will either resist or break in a few ticks with or without a dot or damage being used at all.

However his charisma sucks, and I never roll with a cha buff unless I'm vendoring.

Look more into this please.

no. Tash helps only the spell to land but doesent effect the duration. I already tested it with the chanter. Once it landed it either breaks during the first 5 secs or it sticks forever



Running the tests right now will have statistics in a couple of hours.

False. MR affects both the initial resist chance and the subsequent duration.

Thats what i thought. A couple of days ago i stoped using tash to root. I pull with choke root then tash for debuff. Ive seen no difference in duration or resist rate. On my wiz thought it gets resisted very often same with breaks. Thats the reason for my initial post i first thought my chanter has some lucky charm but there is a pattern.

Root breaks 20% of the time from non-dot, non-ds, non-root spell damage.

Thanks for the clarifaction. Thread might be locked now.

if you are tashing every mob you root, of course root is going to last longer on your enchanter. every damaging spell gives the mob a chance to save against root in addition to their normal chance once every six seconds. it's far harder to make this save if you're rolling at a -10 to -40 mr penalty.

gief tash to wiz pls

[pickled_heretic]

No... you misunderstand me. If tash is *ON* the mob, it affects the duration. doesn't matter if tash was there when you first cast root, or if you cast it after root was applied.

66% of the time, it works every time.
