WTF these 2 spells need a look at big time, i honestly never looked into the combo's a druid could pull of with that but as this experienced druid says here ... he can CC a warrior for 28 secs WTF!!!11111

That is WAY TOO LONG! and needs to be sorted out asap. And i don't care if the druids is casting for 11 seconds to put this amount of CC into play, regardless, this is way too long a time for someone to be locked down.

Q u o t e:

And lets look at the use of roots and cyclone used together shall we.
Assume the druid is CCing a warrior (who has the least amount of counters to these spells).
Cyclone Warrior lasting 6 seconds:
(during this time you will be able to cast 2 instant spells)
Cyclone immediately after last 3 more seconds:
(during this time you will have time to cast 1 spell)
Cyclone a third lasting 1.5 secs:
(during this time you can cast no spells, druid has shifted to bear and used enrage to prepare stun)
Bash Warrior for 4 secsonds:
(Druid shifts out with time to cast 1 spell)
Entangling Roots Warrior for 10 seconds:
(druid is able to cast for 8 seconds)
Entangling Roots Warrior for 5 seconds:
(druid is able to cast for 3 seconds)
Entangling Roots Warrior for 2.5 Seconds:
(druid is able to cast 1 spell before intercept)

The warrior during this time sits in 28seconds of CC. Out of that 28 seconds the druid has spent 11 seconds CCing. That gives the druid 17 seconds of casting time during the CC.
