thanks for the tips, i think we are just going about it wrong right now and need to focus on just charming, pitting two mobs against each other, and then timing things right for the charm switch/nuke.

This is the strategy I would suggest until 40, when the cleric has complete heal. Then, if you get a great pet, put two weapons on him, haste him, and let the cleric CH him. The right pet can absolutely crush.
50+ especially this is true. But having two fight and breaking to kill both is useful through to 60.
Keep in mind, there are several ways to equalize a fight if one mob looks like it is pulling away.
- Slow your opponent. (If there is clearly a difference in mob level/power, slowing to start is a good option).
- Stun your opponent. (If there a small gap, sometimes a stun or two can equalize this.)
- If your pet is losing, /pet guard, /pet back and /pet sit will stop it from attacking and while sitting they take more damage
.
If the fight is going to be clearly uneven and you don't want to do these options above, you can opt for the "blender opponent" option. Find a high level NPC, charm it, and give it two weapons. Then break him and keep him rooted.
Charm blue con mobs and send them against the rooted mob. Break whenever they get low and kill them. You can usually kill 3-4 blue con pets by charming, sending on blender mob, breaking and killing and finding another. If you want you can kill your blender pet. Or you can Lull him and Level 4 MEZ him to blur him. That should allow him to regen to full health within 2 minutes.
An example of this would be getting a ghoul in Unrest charmed and given two weapons then throwing tormented dead or death beetles at him. Keeping him rooted/tashed should be pretty reliable, and he should be able to kill 3-4 death beetles single before getting low Hp. Allowing you to break each one and nuke it to death for minimal mana (1 charm, 1 nuke, 1 root, and 1 invis between you two)
