A rooted mob should always be trying to hit whichever pc is closest to it.

A permarooted mob should be trying to hit whoever has the highest aggro. At 96 percent that permarooted mob should start trying to summon if the player at the top of the aggro table is out of its melee range. There are a few dragons in ToV that have a spell summon that will go off every 30 seconds in addition to the normal summon mechanic, but it will go off as soon as someone is on their aggro table.

Important note: we have an individual Summoning flag for npcs, so perma-rooted mobs should NOT automatically start summoning, unless they have the flag set.
There are raid encounters where, for example, you have a room full of perma-rooted mobs, who just stand where they are and cast, but don't summon
