root should break upon being hit or dot'd

If that is an opinion, that's fine . . .

. . . but nowhere in the ability description does it say +root+ breaks under any conditions . . .

Ok, now I've got different answers. I'll see what others say, I wasn't sure or not if it was an exploit, as root on most games has the potential to break on damage, but doesn't necessarily do it. I will take an official quote as a definitive answer, but not breaking seems slightly unballanced, however I was still able to run a total of 2300m

root is on a 30 second cooldown, you cannot loop it, therefore it isn't that strong...plus it can flat out miss or be saber blocked and the cooldown still makes you wait the full 30 seconds...

in most games you can keep recasting

read the description of the skill...says nothing of supposed breaking...that's your official answer or document

Just be happy he didn't bring a CM/BH....

Ok, I'll report the exploit as soon as I get home and ask that I not be reimbursed for xp, though all my force was used up healing while rooted. This Imperial on Imperial crap is getting incredibly old as well...

lol i coulda swore someone told me that root was supposed to break but i guess not then, my bad

Works for me, now I'll just grind out my neg xp and start running the right direction. I'll have to make sure I've always got an extra 40k xp before I respec so I can pick up novice defender/novice healer in the future.

After respec, things will go a little easier as I'll not be able to respec out of my novice boxes.

See? If *every* thread ended this happily, we'd all be holding hands and singing

Happy endings?

I propose nerfing "root". Heck I've been nerfed as CH, Pistoleer, CM, Jedi, and now it is time for some one else to pay. NERF ROOT NOW!

I hate happy endings, that is why I keep playing this broken piece of complete garbage created and published by a complete bunch of morons. Of course, I'm a bigger moron for still being here.

just wanna reply to the "coke" line in your sig...

i don't remember millions complaining that "coke tastes horrible and we need a change" either...your analogy is very lacking

Actually, I was hit with a fire, so he was a CM/BH... My guess would be a respec, then again, maybe I'm just a little smarter/better with all the pvp practice I've done with my Jedi at lower lvls as I gain newer skills.

I'm fortunately still looking at becoming a 4-3-0-2 LS tomorrow, while pickin up novice healer/defender again.

Lay off the caffeine, mang



Good Luck, Ezis . . .

Tell me to lay off the caffeine, maybe I'll actually become a little more mellow and easier to get along with, instead of crying exploit.
