Here is what I've heard from a few higher level players: enstill is the
same as root, but has a longer duration (and costs more to cast). HOWEVER,
the NPCs have the _same_ chance of breaking thru enstill as they do
breaking thru root. So even though enstill has the _potential_ to last
longer, it rarely does. So many higher lvl wizzes prefer to keep using
root rather than enstill since it works more or less the same, and costs
significantly less to cast. YMMV.
