It seems to me that charm isn't broken on P99 but the RNG is. It would be sad to see changes made to charm that still leave us with 3 breaks on 30 seconds. Other examples of busted RNG is getting 3-4 fizzles in a row at 60 with max skill and/or 255 sex in the case of bards. Or say getting feared multiple times at over 255MR on Kunark dragons.
I charmed a fair amount on live when leveling. While super long charms were a bit more rare than they are on P99, i rarely had issues were a pet would break 3 times in under a minute like I do here. Also charm often fades on the same tick as mez or root which I don't remember being such a problem on live.
