Root resist?

Maybe.

Green level 10 mobs are now able to resist level 60 players on snares, roots, and dots. Maybe this happened on live, but it seems a bit odd.

there is definitely tweaking that needs to be done...especially in the scenario you mentioned, player and mob are of widely different lvls: low lvl mobs should have almost no chance of landing spells on high lvl players...and high lvl players should have almost no chance of being resisted by regular low lvl mobs.

i think the OP is referring, however, to the old expectation of never getting an early root break while root dotting (or even a resist). This was just plain broken, and that is working properly now.

Pretty much what he said. I think they have went too far with the tweak. I am aware even on live root always was hit or miss on some mobs duration wise, or didn't stick at all, but they have taken it too far on last patch. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

working as intended. read the last patch notes.

it is much more in line with the classic resist/break rate for root now.

No way dude its totally broken. Mr and root are freakin screwed and we need GMs to hurry up with a damn hotfix patch for the love of all that is good. Shit is retarded.

it isn't perfect, by far. i've pointed out that the mr formula is cujrrently wrong...especially so as the levels of mob and player get further apart.

but, i still think its better than it was. since launch until the last patch, using root was functionally an exploit that made risk in leveling/farming obsolete for any root rotting class. kicking that shit out of p99 is a step forward...they can tweak the mr formula to perfection now, but we are moving in the right direction finally.

Nah there is deffinetly something fucked up with resists.


Just had an orc pawn resist my 60 shaman's paralyzing earth. I also had a rattlesnake resist shaman epic click and pox...deff not classic.

Just wanted to add: root having a chance to break every tick is classic...no issues there. My issue is with any mob 20 to 30 levels lower than me with its MR debuffed by 60 resisting any of my spells, this is clearly not classic. Blue cons? Sure no issue there but greens should have like a 1% chance (if that) of resisting.

I had a level 30 shark in Kedge resist charm at 56 (first time that's happened in 1.5 levels there) and root twice as well (again, first time it's ever been resisted there). Something seems different.

[Tasslehofp99]

Yeah I deffinetly feel like root broke a lot more on live than here also.


I know for a fact that I wasn't getting charmed by evil eyes at lvl 60 though...that just happened lol.

Idk I think the devs dropped the ball big fuckin time here and the players are suffering from massive amounts of bull shit unwarranted deaths. They need to get some work in and fix this garbage. Should have been fixed last week. Quite possibly the worst and most unneeded patch that I can remember in 4+ yrs.

What is the point of being a caster if you are repeatedly being resisted by green cons

[koros]

August is 100% correct with the math.

Additionally, on live there was indeed a minimum 5% chance for a resist to occur on initial cast or during break checks. It's likely they added that in to some degree.

Taps shouldn't be subject to that restriction.
