Anyone else not seeing a wore of message when it breaks?

yeah there's no msg when it wears... wonder how they set it all up b/c it doesn't seem to overwrite other roots like a root normally would either.

hopefully they could fix both and change the icon =p

I assume since its low resist its like our snare so it will be overwritten by a longer lasting snare, if it should land.

The no wore off message tho, ticks me off a bit.

does it stack with other roots? that would be nice ...

I am a bit worried about this spell, as the dot effect will keep breaking mezzes, so it's going only to be useful when encs are not in group .. or mybe not
umm RSS ... puller trains 2-3 .. druid cast spore spiral .. 15 seconds pass .. mobs play flipper taking turns summoning the druid .. is this scenario correct?

Spore Spiral does not stack with other roots. It no longer has a DoT componant.

It is simply a root version of our 69 Snare with a knockback effect.

Will this work to interrupt gates?

Have not tested it much on casters, tho I would assume the knockback is powerful enough to interupt a cast.

if not then /MASS FEEDBACK!! :rolleyes:

Wish allah had this spell documented...on illia or lucy whatever they call it it has knockback as "2" which i have no idea what means.. any clarification?:physics:

I tried this in The Narglior Pits or whatever the zone is with Boss of the Pit. It was part of DS access. Something started to cast gate, Spore Spiral hit it, I didn't see it bounce back / up as I usually, but got no resist message either.. and the mob DID gate away.

So I still have no clue if it interrupts casting. There's some casters with long cast times.. like cleric golems in Thundercrest.. can probably do some controlled-environment testing there while they CH.

The lack of a wear-off message was /bugged in Beta but i guess i wasn't important enough (selective /bug reading).

Appears to be fixed with today's patch.

At least the one time I casted it today, I got a wear-off message and I have never gotten one before the patch.

I don't know if I'll use this spell but falling out of my chair the first time I saw a mob "jump" was worth it alone. Me and another druid buddy got the spell at the same time and we pretty much just spent the next mission only rooting the mob and having fun with the tank. Good times.

The jump effect is only be a gimmick though. It doesn't interupt spells. I tried it on all three types of casters in PoF, including cleric CH. It didn't affect them at all.

Well the thing is, you're rooting, then knocking back... so they just "jump" and stay in the same place. If the root was AFTER the knockback, they would effectively knock back and then root. I don't know if this is intended however...

bahhhhhh.. spell is of very limited use now =(
very short range, long cast time, long reload time make this spell a sucker.
range and cast and recast times were justified when this spell was an AOE, didnt need to be targeted and u could start casting before mobs were in range. Now it plain sucks =(
And the knockback is not long enough to push mob out of melee range, so it will continue bashing on the tank.

In solo situations, 1 min durations is just too short to be of any use.

Pity, i was really looking forward when this spell was an AOE and it was a big delusion=(
