Don't even know why they wanna do it /boggle

It also snares them for a short time after the root drops, IIRC. <div></div>

Should be in the Examine info, too. Not in game so I can check. It's 3am and I really should go to bed if I intend to work tomorrow.<div></div>

I've had the root last for insane ammounts of time....long enough to solo a blue heroic with him rooted the entire encounter.

I use thorny trap every time I take on Keeper in Poet's Palace. The root has never broken for me if I'm not actively damaging the mob, so I set the trap right at the top of the stairs, target one of the two adds, pull with RoA, and take the adds down one at a time. The remaining add and the keeper wait patiently at the top of the stairs until I'm ready for them. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
