Literally that's what you melee's are asking for full spell immunity, you want no spells or CC effects besides lure and lifetap to ever land on you, that's what would make u happy. Meanwhile on live only 1 or 2 guys ever attained that gear.
You actually this stupid? By all means keep resists as they are, if you don't understand how spamming root and having it land on BIS melees is a bad thing for smaller "Eliter" pvp guilds, you ain't got a prayer.

Ok let's do a comparative contrast from pre patch to now.

Pre Patch you had 1 enchanter and 1 shaman racking up kills, and 2-3 enc and shamans rolling as support for groups. Post-Patch it's the same enc and shaman racking up kills with the same enc/shamans rolling as support for groups.

On Sullon the boards on Kunark for 60 range players was DOMINATED by casters, with the occasional melee making the top 100. Here for the past 2 years anyone who rolled a Sk,Monk,Warrior, or Rogue easily hit the top 100. Our boards at the 60 range are DOMINATED by melee's. Still are.

On live EQ every melee who rolled the class did not hit 60 in under 3 months and attain max resists, during Kunark era people were getting CC'd to hell because they didn't all get handed epic's and max resist gear at minimum time played.

Spells all have a cast time if you wait till your debuffed as fuck to start dispelling then that's a skill problem. And it shows that the average players lvl of skillful pvp here has degraded a vast degree since live. Because I can assure you on live nobody waited to take off a malo.

CC on eq is more debilitating than other mmos. It has a fast cast, almost no recast time, and most melee have no range attacks of any note. The only way to break it is to pumice,, but melees can't channel, and the cc can be reapplied instantly. It's dumb as fuck.

Last i heard EQ was a team game, and people sometimes use TS and shit. I bet you could ask someone to pell you if you couldnt channel it yourself... and if you are solo from my experience i cant land root consistantly after just a tash.

(tash or malo alone, should prob land like 30% roots with someone around 100mr after, blind and whirl should be pretty much resistable unless you tash and maloed)

resist are a bit off but in grp setting i feel like it can even itself out for the most part. Granted it could use some tweeking i dont see the point in all the hate and tears. They gotta test patches somehow here and you just cant change shit cause the 4melee forum trolls cry about it.

Except for the fact that melee's can indeed channel here, they shouldn't be able to but they do. You'd know that if you weren't such a god awful player.

You can only be chain rooted if your debuffed and guess what those can be removed too! If you spent 1/10th of the time you do raiding, pvping you might know wtf your talking about.

I will have to try this channeling thing on my Rogue, maybe unintended bug since patch? Prior to that I never got a pumice off on myself or nothers, nor any channeling regained concentration messages pre patch. Whats the current rate of channeling on a pure melee like, hybrid skill level? or just 1?
