Game Mechanics: Mage: Earth pet will not Root a Player with Sow.

ya i think nerfing the freq is a bad idea. thats one of the perks to earth pet in pve. the "root" of the problem is definitely the resists system in place.

Nerfing one thing or another is irrelevant, just go for the classic implementation. Works 100% of the time, every time.

Should the Kunark pets have different roots in classic trilogy? This guy doesn't remember here.. smells like some Sony garbage.

I think being a little harder to resist might make sense. But still, this was pretty freakin' easy to resist in live.

this isnt proof of anything other than you can be rooted with 200+ mr. just posting since server down. we were testing pet in between pulls. will work on a bigger sample size later. mage is lvl 53? pet is blue to me. (51 earth pet spell)

tbh the most surprising thing is that it lasted full duration or w/e. at 200 mr even if root lands i would think it would wear off immediately. I resisted the first 2 but 3rd one stuck in case anyone wants to know how small this sample size really is (tiny)

Rooted 2 out of 2 times with 185 MR yesterday. I'd suggest adding the jboots/sow blocking earth pet root bug back in. Because MR sure isn't the way to go to stop it.

[SamwiseRed]

2 out of 2 times? with the current rate of earth pet rooting, this means you were in a .5 second pvp engagement.

I can confirm Raze was rooted last night. Because it was shortly followed up by me dropping bombs and collecting a killshot like it was a Pokemon.
