Brace yourself for roots, snares and stuns friends. Classic is here.

Numerous people who put in way too much EQ pvp on live for this era will tell you 60mr meant no roots/snares/stuns.
The ~140 marker for direct damage spells is amazing tho, its very classic and I believe quite a technical hurdle. I expected some issues to creep through because we're all only human and can only test so much
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Having this cap/threshold system is a humongous win for the pvp resist code and some trade offs / analysis after the fact are expected with such a huge change and hopefully tweaks will be considered.
Rather than just take my word or anyone else's for it, I hope Haynar takes a stroll over to observe some mass PvP with the root changes. Root->Splat is real.
Abilities in WoW like frost nova had log cooldowns, instant use counters like pvp trinkets to instantly remove for a reason. Imagine of the pvp trinket had a 3 second cast in WoW how fast people would die to a RMP style lock down comp. High end arena for CC/lock down comps was basically run them out of instant removes/escapes then burst someone down. Having a fast cast 30 second movement disable is bad. I understand there are dispels and pumice, but if you root a rogue he isn't going to be able to pumice himself because he has no channeling skill. Yes he could call for a dispel so someone else can do that, but odds are he is dead as doornail before that dispel lands.
I also gotta reiterate and can't stress enough that this kills
any hope of small elite crews being able to use their skill to win in pvp fights.
