1. Very few high level Druids use Roots, so that argument is essentially moot.I hear you loud and clear
But mages got freeze
Druids got roots so sigils matter
No to mention even rouges can solo without stun skill ,just fast flip to carpet and spin huge donuts (mob just cases you , but dont hit so sigils kick in )
And about going off topic ehhh i wasnt expecting a reply from OTM would be cool if they did
2. The energy issue is only one part of the equation. The evasions that this armor offers is excellent for a solo Druid (hence why I wear it depending on the situation). Increased chance of evading hits from the mob results in two great results: a.) We take less damage, and don't need to heal as often b.) we are interrupted less, thus have a higher chance of casting offensive or defensive skills.
