Riflemen dont have a root. We have a snare, which is Knee-Cap shot.

The two roots in the game are stopping shot (normal and advanced) which is pistol xxx3 (for advanced) or concussion shot, which is master smuggler. Stopping shot gives a 12 second root, Concussion shot a 40 second root (though it is supposed to break on the target taking any more damage - this could get fixed in a future patch).

The only other vague root (that I can remember) is CM paralyse, which does break when the target takes more damage - it's used more for running away.

Your best bet is 0003 Pistoleer if you need a root.

Knee-Cap Shot has to unfortunate thing that it seems to take the server 5-8 seconds to apply the damned slow effect after you score the hit, and by then your target has closed the distance to you.



"Could you please repeat that? You want a what? A Buff? Yes i am a Master Doctor, but you want me to apply a buff, are you sure?" - Serf being surprised that someone wanted a buff.
"Now follow my directions: Follow me, then..... hey what are you doing stop, stop *UGLY BLASTER SOUND* dammit i told you to follow me, not to run into that room with that large turret" - Serf to eager guildmate in the warren.
"Why are you looking at me?, im not here, really im not, this rifle is just a fake, i promise" - Serf to angry Ancient Krayt Dragon.
"Muhahaha im indestructable" *BOOM* - Serf realising that his trainer TIE might not be able to take on tier 2 enemies.
