Game Mechanics: Snare should stop running mobs completely

[Nuesnada]

First of lets get numbers straight

UKNOWN = set speed of mobs at normal and low health on this server <excluding buffs >

UKNOWN= Set reduction of speeds by various snare type spells on this servers. < no information to be had unless devs reveal this information.

KNOWN = at least prior to this patch mobs on p1999 ran faster at normal speed then live servers. you could test this with druid snare/ensnare, mobs that where both druid ranger snared / ensnared would continue to run if below 20 percent and would not stop till they reached 11 percent health. this implied mobs had a higher set normal run speed. this also implies that a mob would drop to another run speed which we perceived as walking when its heallth would drop from 20 to 11 percent, and stop completely as it run speed was at zero or lower at 11 percent to 0 percent health.

----------------------------------------------

DATA known percentage speed reduction referencing allakazam.

Druid /ranger/ Various items SNARE = 41% to 51 % run speed reduction.

DRuid/ Ranger / Various items ENSNARE = 56 % run speed reduction

Necromancer /sk / Various items CLINGING DARKNESS= 24% to 30% run speed reduction

Necromancer / sk / items Engulfing Darkness= 40% run speed reduction.

necromancer /sk / ?? items ??? DOOMING DARKNESS = 48% to 59 % r.s.r

necromancer /sk/ ?? item ??? Cascading Darkness= 60 % Run Speed Reduction.

------------------------------------------------------------

So unless devs decide to release information of mob run speed of mob through out their health levels we will not known if everything is working as we remember on live.

All we have is PERSONAL EXP. if you are use to just using your lowest snare for mana efficiency then try using a higher level one and see this changes how mobs behave. Necromancer / shadow knight have better set of spell to test this.


I will log in later today and do some personal test on mobs i have killed prior to patch and watch their behavior.
