It's random, up to 3.9 minutes - as are all snare procs (paladin usable) except anklesmasher iirc. A monk friend of mine perma camps them, has 6 or 7 at any given time. I got mine from her heh.

Yes, it is fixed duration.

That is why when I used that spear, I did not find it to be nearly as good. I found it to be a maddening waste of my time, and sold it after less than a week. Practically speaking, if the snare can wear off at any time, I might as well just root.

i use tsarina's whip (not sure of exact name) i got it from tofs. it is pretty reliable. but then again when in a group situation a reliable duration snare would be nice, but i have camped that anklesmasher and the time i spent camping and the plat i paid a rogue, it would have been more plat effective to just buy it.
