with SoW Pots because the 10p per cast is worth it to run faster imo, plus
the effect is longer than jboots.
As people already mentioned neither works indoors. While you get quite a bit of SoW hits for the cost of jboots you should also consider some of the other advantages of jboots over pots.

1. JBoots take up just one inventory slot. If you have 5 SoW pots you have lost 5 spaces.

2. JBoots are instant click, so if a mob is about to clean your clock while you have no speed effect on, you don't have to try to cast SoW while you are getting your face beat in.

3. JBoots are instant click, so it makes a great clicky item to counteract mob who like to dispell. Useful for outdoor raids and regular mobs

4. I may be wrong about this one but I think the wiki is incorrect about SoW duration. I think at lower level iit lasts a significantly shorter length of time.

I have JBoots on my toons and keep one or two SoW pots on them incase I really need to get somewhere faster.

3.) Any non-caster Melees here ever escape from a group that was about to bite the dust using the Worker Sledgemallet?
I'm sure it has happened but don't count on it as an escape plan.

4.) i've heard Rooted mobs always aggro the closest person to them. So why don't
more people root mobs that can potentially be rooted and have the tank stand
as close as he can? Aggro problem solved?
Some groups do this but consider only one tank can root so you are generally putting some more work/mana loss on other classes. Roots can be resisted, some people stand too close, and they can break so you could be putting in more work for not much more benefit. On my wizard when I help lower level people out I root mobs and stand closer.

5.) Is the Wurmslayer not a good choice for the Soloing Paladin and Shadowknight?
seems like it would be very slow even with haste item + chanter haste.
It is an alright weapon. Slow harder hitting weapons can be good for mobs were you want to avoid riposte.

6.) How often does one have to worry bout that dragon in timorous deep near the fire pots? was going to frequent there more often.
Rarely an issue.
