... But it is not a waste of time.
Rooting a melee mob makes it unable to harm anyone out of its range. The same goes for rooting a caster out of sight or out of range of the party. If your party needs you to CC, Entangling Roots is perfectly viable, but only if you and your party take its limits into account.

^This.
Rooting casters is perfectly viable if you outrange its casting ability and melee are fubar'd upon being rooted since they cant get to you. Some casters however are better to be locked out completely, such as the Adepts in Vortex Pinnacle since they heal.

We were in vortex when I first got into this problem.
What I said...I can root a caster but it will do NO GOOD
some understood some didn't
I can't Hibernate it only works on Beasts and Dragonkin
well they understood that one.
Now in Grim I did some good since I could use stuff better there.
I guess that some people just expect everyone to do what they want not what we can do.

The second and 3rd cyclone last considerably less in pve, the 3rd one is merely an interrupt.
Cyclone does indeed get DR in PvE, however most other forms of CC do not.

It is even better when doing H Deadmines, and some idiot tank marks a camo'd mob, and tells someone to Root it.
Camo prevents CC from working
. Our nice Warrior tank bashing our Moonkin Druid and Mage through half of the run because they never CC'd his marks, where half of them were protected by envokers shields, and the other half were camo'd. Our poor healer weren't much better off- the warrior called him a noob through the whole instance because he said he didn't have repentence (which happen to be a deeper Ret-talent - not exactly something a healer have access to), when the warrior was certain he should have.
You can't fix human stupidity i'm afraid. Just explain it nicely when they yell at you, and if they still don't understand, ignore them. Ignorant people who think they know every other class better than the people who play them, will never listen to reason. Likewise, any mistake made, will most likely never be their fault, but someone elses. Just move on, and forget about them. Waste of energy to do anything else.
