But TBH the best tatic is to get off your combo before the fa does, kinda like what XI said, but instead of trying to cast your root 100% of the time, lure the fa to you, fade dash around obstacles to cut off their range and either break their combo (if they're already in combo) or get yours off before them, use FK to outdo their range. If you've ever fought against a 11-range FA you'd know how hard it is to even cast a debuff on him/her. The only time i would root is when the fa is knocked down and/or out of combo.
dont care about taking a hit in pk =[ the root really isn't meant to keep them from not moving, it's more of something as a distraction so your combo starts up quicker than theirs. but if it was freestyle pvp, then yea, debuffs are a bad idea. especially if you root. you'll be eating 2 lances from the fa by the time ur root is done
