Roots

Mendarthin
I'm playing on BWB as a magicka templar, and some people have this annoying habit of spam-casting roots.

You used to be able to roll out of them, but after IC, I can only roll about 2-3 times as a magicka build before I run out of stamina. And they can just reapply the dang thing instantly.

Is there a way to deal with this that I've overlooked?

    Nope. Roots + bats + proxy det + fire ring is back

    It's even more costly for Stamina. I like it because it actually gives ranged a better chance at surviving against a melee player charging at them.

    Your not a magika build though, since in bwb you are battle leveled, meaning your attributes etc mean nothing. Only passives. So it's not a true magika build, you have the same stam pool as anyone else of your race.

    Not leveled high enough for that yet, but I'll be sure to give it a shot once I am.

    Thanks!

    Root/immobilize needs immunity, just as all other CC. Thoughts?
