Escape Artist

:Never be too sure you have a gnome corneredEscape Artist (Through the Dark Portal)
Escape Artist is a gnome racial ability that removes any immobilization or movement speed reduction effects. It is based around gnomes' small size and great agility, allowing them to deftly escape traps and snares made for much larger targets. 
==Notes==
* While it will remove all roots and snares, it will not work on any effect that takes away the user's ability to move/act, such as Sleep effects, Fear effects, Incapacitate effects, Stun effects or Polymorph.
* It does not protect you from future debuffs, and must be recast to remove any further roots and snares.
* Escape Artist cannot be resisted. It will wipe snares and roots 100% of the time.
* Does not remove the Dazed effect caused by mobs, however it will remove the Dazed effect caused by players.
==Tips and tactics==
*The best application for this is removing Boss debuffs that include a snare (or root). If a debuff has "Slows movement speed AND does 65 damage ever 1 second", it will remove both the slow speed AND the damage over time spell from you, in one sweep. This will work as long as the spell includes a root or snare, ie roots you in place, or slows your movement speed.
*PvP examples:
**Mage: Frostbolt, Frostfire Bolt, Cone of Cold, Frost Nova, Slow, Blast Wave and more
**Warlock: Aftermath and the Nightmare inflicted using Improved Fear
**Warrior: Hamstring, Piercing Howl
**Rogue: Crippling Poison
**Druid: Infected Wounds, Entangling Roots
**Shaman: Frost Shock, Frostbrand Weapon, Earthbind Totem (no use if you stay within the radius of the totem)
**Hunter: Wing Clip, Concussive Shot, Ice Trap (although while within affected area the debuff will simply be reapplied) 
**Death Knight: Chains of Ice, Chilblains
**Priest: Mind Flay
