Have your group dispel you? Don't stand in LoS of a caster spamming root on you? Removing egg-shaped is not the end of the world.

Yes, I played on live PVP servers. I'm aware of how to dispel root. I'm simply stating the fact that scaling the magic resist system on VZTZ made root a very viable tactic to use, which is why many players opened with it in every fight, instead of kiting and killing people on the move.

Speed is always the most important thing in PVP and that's in most games, not just Everquest. So why allow an ability that lets people stop your movement completely and make it a regular part of PVP? Regardless of whether or not there are ways to dispel root, I'm well aware of them, the less people rely on movement stopping abilities, the higher the quality of PVP becomes as everyone can move around.
