I currently only play 2v2 (holy/disc priest partner) and 3v3's (priest/warrior partners, 2 melee no freedom ftl!) Both currently 1900 teams on Rampage.

I'm a QR/Combat spec that also picked up fleet footed and I've got surefooted on my boots and I use a 18sta 5% Stun Resist meta atm, so I sit at 15% stun resist and 15% snare/root resist, would you guys advise holding on to the stun resist or trade it in favor of the crit strike & 5% snare/root resist meta?

The reason I'm considering the switch is because of dual icemage teams, warlock/druid or warlock/pal teams that can exhaust all my snare breaks with CoEx spam and then attempt to kite me between CoS and Escape Artist coming up. Many times it feels like I'd be able to get back in range with deadly throw snare if I could resist more CoEx's and get that extra 1.5seconds of run time toward the warlock.

The downside would be mirror matches or stormherald warrior teams which are already tough teams to beat.

EDIT for Buena: The gem requirement is More Red than Yellow, and while that's tough, I'd personally only need to switch out 1 gem (most likely a jagged talasite) for something like a shifting/balanced nightseye to meet it.

I determined that the snare resist one would be much more valuable and even went as far as getting one crafted before I realized there was no way I was going to meet the gem requirement to use it. I beleive it is "more blue than yellow" and resilience gems are yellow :?
