Thread: Nerf the NT strong roots

  1. #161
    it would be 26% checked twice. its not the same as adding it up, and making it 52%.

    for example, if there was a quad nuke, 4 hits, if you're adding it up that's a guaranteed root break or 104%, which wouldn't be true, it would be 4 nukes, checked 4 times at 26% each; not 1 nuke added up to check 104%.

    Correc'

    45% / 5 sec = 9% / sec
    vs

    26% / 3 sec = 8.66666 % / sec

    (mathematicly talking i dunno if i can calc a chance per second to break a root like that but the point is approximative)

    Wath's matter is IU recharge (1sec), versus 4 sec for double, so you can react quick to a deroot. 52 or 45% on double says the same thing.

    If double wasn't checking its chance to break twice like i believe it does it could be worth using it even knowing the 4 seconds recharge on double (+1 sec casting the other root).

    I'm pretty sure that doubles and Triples do not check to break twice and three times, respecitively, since there is only ONE check to see if the double/triple lands and it's the landing check that is the trigger to break, not the number of hits you get from that nuke landing once.

    I think the test is simple ... see if DoT's can break roots after the first tick. I'm pretty sure they don't, but my experience with DoTing profs is limited.

    ANY source of damage, will trigger the check. And DoTs can break roots.

    Please do tell how an NT is supposed to tell if they break a root on the first, second or thrid damage tick on a double or triple? They occur simultaneously. Answer .. you can't. Thanks And YOU have NT's?

    Like I said, I'm not too familiar with DoTing profs and when being hit with Dot's I'm typcially using things to break my roots anyways, so it's not clear to me if I'M breaking the root, or the DoT is doing it for me.

    You can roll them pretty easily but...isn't enforcer a DoTing prof

    Although, I'm not sure the rage DoT effect breaks CC tools, and no, NT's thinking it does is not a fact. Easy to test, so test it.
