I agree with Top - the armsman anytime snare is huge.. Top's video is clear evidence, especially the part with the tanks that are stun immune. If you watch the video it explains the anytime snare's usefulness well in a properly coordinated group. The caster/healer can turn thier char and any other snare peeler, other than arms, should break thier own snare. Leave 44 thrust for minstrels or some lucky paladin that gets an RvR group

If you think Top is promoting 44 thrust on a merc you are misunderstanding him and GL to you. I've tried that spec and the thrust 2 part snare opener misses a lot on that other server, for what it's worth.
