its not so much if it resists all the time. the pet attempts to root "alot" and very often. go troll in Rants and flames or something, not people trying to give feedback on bugs ect.

Mostly the reason pet root didn't land was because pets were usually several levels lower than their target. Other than that, it should function like a regular spell with no resist modifier. If someone has 100MR, pet root should normally be a non-factor, and probably with 70-80ish MR as well if the target isn't much lower level than the magician. It should also have a maximum duration of 18 seconds, but it appears to be like 30-40 seconds sometimes on this server.

This is isn't about root landing. It's about PETS not even casting their root on people with jboots or sow. That's a bug and will need to be fixed

Root casted by a level 50 player against another level 50 player with 100MR will probably land 5-8% of the time max. Therefore, a mage pet would have even harder of a chance to land it. It sounds like you played TZVZ and never touched EQ live PvP before. | |||

in regards to player cast roots, i was shocked the other day when a 44 shaman tried to instill me (being 50) i resisted 4 or 5 times in a row before he gave up and started to dot me. (which all landed) having only 48 MR unbuffed. you would think at least one of those instill would have landed if only for a tick or 2. but resists work weird here i guess. also Im not sure why people throw this "you must have played TZVZ ect. ect. ect." all the time. to be honest i have no idea what TZVZ is. tho i get the impression it was some other EMU server or something. i Played on RZ back on live as a shadow knight and a paladin. i remember my roots and darkness spells landing much more often then it did here. but that was so long ago my memory is foggy as best, so i wouldn't know for sure.

It's basically just random numbers in there now which makes testing PvP rather hard to do. | |||

I have heard a few comments about pet root being unresistable at any level difference. I tried testing at the extreme end of this with a level 4 mage and my 50 shaman with only naked MR (25). The level 4 earth pet would never root him. Also the pet would not even attempt to root with SoW on. I have posted screenshots of this behavior in my compilation thread.

Bump. Mage earth pet still refuses to attempt rooting targets with SoW/Jboots up, NPCs included.

Maybe he is casting but the sow is cast by a higher lvl so it will not over write. I pretty much gave up on root pets anyway.
