Tanglers have already been nerfed, and it's a reasonable one. If you can't figure out how to push through them with all the current options available then it's your fault not the game.
Also a snare would be almost exactly as bad. They would simply kite a liiiiiittle more than they already do.
Tanglers are a speedwarp --- everyone hated speedwarps <on live> but everyone had them <on live>; the fact that only one realm has them here is a mistake ....
The problem is tanglers existed long before speedwarps. Tanglers aren't speedwarps, speedwarps are tanglers. This subtle difference, to me at least, is the reason they exist and are not a mistake. Does every realm have celerity? No. Does that mean celerity is a mistake? Also no. I could continue to talk in circles about realm balance but I get the feeling you're someone who wants every realm to have every ability every other realm has. One realm having tanglers is not game-breaking, especially now after they've been adjusted.
I do not and have not ever played an animist on any iteration of DAoC nor have I very seriously ever played hib even. They are an annoyance at worst, nothing more.
