How to play Enchanter like the pros

[spoil]

Just from a mana-efficiency standpoint your bedlam and rune spells are very expensive, so using a stun to channel a nuke/recharm is the better option. Also an enchanter is at his most vulnerable when 1 or both runes are down, for any amount of time. They should be your last line of defense.

So in the example where charm breaks and root breaks on the other mob you can stun > root > other stun > root, and then step back and charm. Also if you're pushing yourself reverse charming you might be in a situation where 3 or more mobs are coming at you and then you will have to stun. Usually stun > AE mez > recast rune(s) because you just got pummeled > root everything and then charm something.

cast pet, recast pet before it dies or when it dies, profit

There's some enchanters in KC at 50+ who could use this advice.

Also never trust your cleric not to ninja afk, assume you're on your own even in a group.

Not to necro an old thread but in case any other new Enchanters read this: Don't do your first foray charm killing in dungeons. Do it in an outdoor zone, preferably an area with few wanderers (even better a static camp where you can single pull if you don't want to deal with breaking a couple mobs). Get the hang of it, get used to knowing what to do when Charm breaks so that you don't freak out. Once you get that down you can try doing it in dungeons.

Also, always have your Rune buff up.
