The balance resists thread.

[SamwiseRed]

Please present facts only and not your recollections. I am trying to see if MR is indeed broken. Many people have claimed to be chain rooted with 140+ mr. I assumed these people were telling the truth because there has been more than one to claim so. Here are some quick tests (very small sample size.)

You can easily replicate or conduct your own tests. Please prove resists are broke for servers sake.

First test at 148 MR (only 1 mr song) 9/10 roots resisted

second test was 125 mr after being tashed. 9/10 roots resisted.

I will do a series of tests at 90 and 100 mr as well which is an achievable amount of mr for most people on this server. 51 mr is a joke now adays and should not be the baseline for whether or not you are CC immune. Again please present emperical evidence (logs screenshots, ect) showing how the current MR system is broke. THank you.

Nyquil how many levels lower btw (I can guess by looking at the logs it didn't auto poof)? =)

And how long did that 1 root last?

Come chat on AIM.

clearly MR is working at 120+. I guess the real question is how MR is working from 90-120. lately bards have played a big part in mass pvp meaning people can easily top 200+ mr. when considering MR balance take into consideration:

the kind of gear floating around and have access too.

the availability of bards/buffs

i would also like to know how much mr warriors have naked at 50-60 since they get an MR boost.

Also, try roots with damage components, darkness line, and other snares.

It's way too high and suicide for people starting with avg gear.

true immobilize did last longer than i thought however you have to consider how long it took for her to cast 10 roots. was like 45 seconds for 10 roots to be casted. 45 seconds of me just and her just standing there mind you. any caster would be dead in 45 seconds if a melee was on top of them. consider everyone running around and what not it could have taken her up to 2 minutes to root me assuming i just ran around chasing her.

i am interested to see how darkness does. i know snare is resisted 9/10 times at 70 mr. tested on druid. i doubt snare even lands at 120 mr but i guess its worth a test. i have been darkness snared tho at 70 mr but havent tested how freq it happens.

5 people cast 2 roots = you're dead at 125 MR in group vs group pvp. Sounds awesome.

Mind you, we fought 20v20+

Come chat anytime pal

5 people cast any kind of dmg spell you are dead anyway [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] id rather take 10 roots than 10 nukes [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

afk for a bit, i hope people publish their MR finding to this thread. its time we get some real talk. also looking for someone to chain whirl me so we can put that myth to rest.

Cast time on root/fetter? Cast time on lure of frost/winged death? >: )

Also need confirmation on caster's level.
