Chanters always think they're better at CC. But if you're duoing, it's better in the long run that the chanter focuses on keeping his charmed pet on a leash and the main target debuffed/rooted/etc.
One thing about the shitty duration of the bard charm, is that it is a known duration, this means you can turn it into an advantage and work it into your twist so that the mob is only uncharmed for a fraction of a second.
In a group setting, with the massive DPS a chanter pet can add, it is imperative that the bard puts the chain pulls on overdrive, aggro'ing a mob and charm it once close to the group to finish the current target, and then break charm or let it run out if timed right, and as soon as the group turns its attention to it, go get another one, do not wait.
