Enchanter charm isn't classic, we all know this

Okay so what we’re hearing is you guys have now reverted to simply saying a class needs to be nerfed in a non classic manner because you have no evidence that charm isn’t otherwise accurate to what it was on live.

I think we can move this to resolved since we know they aren’t just gonna randomly nerf a class because you’re whining

For me, this was never about evidence and things working or not working like they did back then and honestly I don't think it was for many others here either. I think the inaccuracy arguments mostly came from the fact that Live era charm use wasn't as widespread as it is on P99, so people assume something is wrong, and that's the logical first guess, that spells or stats or resists and the charm formula aren't functioning properly. I've stated before I personally don't think it's all THAT far off. (though I do personally believe that all or most mobs on P99 are sharing some sort of static Magic Resist value, and that makes it so charming is much more accessible than it was on Live because the mobs that are supposed to be more resistant, aren't)

For me, and surely others, this is about mathematics and Classic Feel. It's not about a class being overpowered or being able to solo, it's about to what EXTENT that overpoweredness is, and the impact that it has on the game and its community.

If discovering more accurate formulas and impact of stats and all the other variables is part of making charm have Classic Feel, then so be it.

If a flat out nerf to charmed mob damage is part of making charm have Classic Feel, then so be it.

Charm is no different from any other mechanic in the game, if it is causing TOO much of an issue, like all of the other issues that the staff have implemented unclassic changes for, then you're not going to convince me that the staff won't consider changes.
