Earth pet's root lands way too much

yeah... yeah they were. they still would be, even if the pet resists were nerfed a bit. it's overkill right now.

mages are just gonna completely own ppl early on... gotta face it, if you nerf their pet resist rates so that you can resist even with zero mr gear they would be entirely useless later in the game.

The player based root should stick more or at least equally. That's the real problem. I'm not sure that nerfing or changing the mage pet is wrong. Null is on point with bringing players to the arena for testing, speculation is only good to a certain point.

This is only complaints at the lowest level. Wait until higher levels, new complaints will arise.

^ nail on head.

You guys remind me of WoW forums. Omg so and so class owns me (even tho we are only lvl 12). It happens man. some classes are better than others at certain levels. Just the way it is, and should be.

You're just wrong. The entire point of this server is to emulate classic pvp. We are supposed to give feedback based on things that are not like classic. In classic, earth pet root rarely landed and was not a reliable source of rooting someone.

You are right when you say "some classes are better than others at certain levels". But you are incorrect when you apply this logic to keep in things that are not like how they were on live. You also act like low level pvp is no big deal. That's an incredibly ignorant viewpoint if you want to attract ANY new players. No new player is going to stick around if mage pets are this effective in pvp for the first 20 levels.

they didnt zone until sometime in PoP
If you think back, thats about the time you left Gfay

Man, what in the wide world of fuck are you talking about? Those were explanations for why mages were bad in pvp back on live during classic. Who the fuck cares about 1v1 duels? Any meaningful pvp won't be 1v1, it will be group pvp. You'd know that if YOU weren't a goddamn nub.

calm down bro,
1v1 or 2v1 are great examples to judge a pets effectiveness..
if you use mass pvp or group pvp scenerios you def have alot more on your plate then a mages pet..hell i bet the pet wasnt even on you thats why you are under the impression roots never land

I.. played a mage... during live... and played this game from classic to planes of power...

You know what, never mind. You're literally too dumb to form a logical argument.
