Ranger Roots Breaking

    This has probably been hashed out before, but did our roots get worse at some point earlier this year or is something else causing them to either break early or be resisted? I can't find a common theme about why it happens sometimes, but it is annoying. For example, there will be times when I fire off Bluster and Fluster one right after the other and have them both will break immediately (not resisted) or Vinelash will immediately break. Grasping Roots (AA) also has the same issue. The only think I can think of is Heavy Arrow, Banestrike, and/or innate bow procs are breaking it. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

    Where are you fighting? I noticed heavy resists and early root breaking in TBL after it came out I think the mobs have a higher magic resist to check against. Are you also shooting the mob while trying to root it? Might be procs or your assaulting aug

    FM Sarnaks and Goblins, Gates Sarnaks, Fire Fight mobs. That pretty much the only time I use root.

    FYI
    some of those type 18's 19's that proc off melee attacks will also proc off arrows and will break roots
    also check your proc from augs you have on your bow

    Didn't they change root to break off of arrows in general? Without a spell.
