Root on new Patch

[teesUA]

Hello guys. Discus please what do you think about upgrade the Root ability (drain mana) ? 

This drain mana is insane on my opinion . 500 mp burned from 1 root skill is too fcking OP . To counter this sh*t you need to change your equipment to Nighmare/Doom and loose your boost...

Hello. We are looking into values, were are collecting as much information as we can before final decision. Skill was added at start of the week, so currently we wanted to see how it will play out and if adjustment required ( which it is ). 

We also liked the idea of people looking into all available tools to counter play.

It’s really necessary to test it against Nightmare sets, because they significantly reduce the chance. I’ve seen some players using Blue Wolf or Doom sets—even though Doom isn’t good against root. So if this mana burn remains overpowered even against the Nightmare set, then I would agree that it’s truly broken.

why SE and Bishop can’t beat everyone even tough they have mana burn?

Now everybody will need to have it or doom. But they want to keep playing same sets agains all classes, no strategies.

I tested few fights on |EE with full epic against player full too nm +6. Its almost doesnt working, if get dress the nm set 70%.  i played against hero spoiler on olympiad on EE for test full time and many casting roots test, looks not bad. But only 2/10 root working. If target have orfen 3 and nm set. With doom will be less resist 50% + epic/mental stuck. 

With both items equipped, your total resistance will be 76% (since 

), and the chance of Root landing on you will be reduced by 4.16 times.

 

Mental Shield adds another powerful multiplier to the denominator. If a root landed on you every 4th time without the buff (24%), with Mental Shield the chance will drop to 15–18%. This applies if your class has this skill or if you receive it from a buffer.

 

PS. Add more inventory capacity and % lift for carrying +1 set as an alternative. 

zaken 3   15% mental resist/attack

Conclusion:

• EE/PP: Now have the tools to dominate the battlefield and dictate the fight.
• Bishop/SE: It's just a boost to help them push enemies away.
  The game has shifted: healers are now active playmakers, but the NM set is now more mandatory than ever to survive them. (BISH SE = they were too weak earlier)

orfen 3  Hold Resistance and Atk. Rate +20%

I think mental resist doesn’t affect root, just DEBUFF resistance from prophecy or guts

Mental Shield + Guts do increase resistance, but not all classes have them. Epics do increase resistance, but also increase landrate to same value ( so level them self out ).
