Is this working now, or does -

-root still block it?
-doesn't stop the mob from running at low hitpoints?

I wanted to go troll shaman but I have not played in years or ever on this server. Only real reason to go troll over iksar. I had a barb shaman and a troll sk back in classic but always wandered how amazing having snare as a shammy would be.Thanks!

Root and snare don't stack till part way into Velious. It may not stop a mob completely while fleeing, but will decrease movement speed.

It lasts a very short duration (4-5 ticks). It will stop mobs at low HP fleeing. I dunno about 20%~ HP mobs but around 10% they stop.

I use this very rarely on my cleric. I messed around using it to fear kite undead when leveling the cleric but that wasn't even that efficient.

I'm excited to get it on my new troll shm on red. When it stacks with root in velious it'd be great for low to mid lvl leveling, and also good for high lvl soloing stuff that flees at low hp in crowded dungeons when you really can't risk them moving toward help. Never know when root will break!

Edit: Also, wiki page says both 6 and 8 ticks at max. Anybody wanna test?

Also, a fleeing snared caster mob > non-fleeing rooted caster mob dropping ice comets on you.
It only completely stops running at about 10% but still slows down at 20%. Used it much more at low levels but not much at high levels until the root/snare changes.
After that you could root rot caster mobs, snare, then when 20%, jbb until root breaks.
