Is it my imagination? Snares/roots...
Stun Break’s don’t break snares/roots afaik, I don’t think they ever have.
Lightning Flash breaks root for me, at least the ranger root with the vines that I cannot hit half the time because they appear 5 feet behind me. The other roots I break with Ether Renewal or Water Attunement trait to remove condition.
Traits are the key. Thank you for the feedback guys.
I had recently changed my traits for one reason or another. Before then I had not changed them for a long while. I had begun to assume that these skills should automatically break stuns and roots and immobilize.
