Preparation
Get the Enchanter(s) and the PBAE Nukers piled together as chummy as you can. You want the template of your blasts and their stuns to be as closely matched as you can. The best way is to be back in a corner so that the monsters will keep bunched up nicely. While they will tend to pile in to get at you, the "4 NPCs per PC" rule will sometimes make them want to stray, which isn't good.

The first thing you will need to do is get the bad guys to beat up on. There are a lot of options for this, from the standard "hey you, go get a bad guy" pulling technique to using your Eye of Zomm. The first thing to keep in mind is that only 4 monsters at one time will follow one person. As a result it is difficult to get a huge horde pulled to the kill zone at once. Another problem is that bringing lots of creatures means that the puller is being pounded on the whole time, which as one advances in levels becomes increasingly horrible for the puller's chances to survive.

I remember pulling/kiting mobs in some situations where only 4 would engage in melee range at a time, mobs 5+ would stop or walk away to the next person on the aggro list. As soon as you pulled out of melee range of 1 or more, then the others out of aggro range would attempt to reengage and come back towards you.
If that 4 mob rule were applicable in Chardok, more research is needed for applicable zones/mob types, as soon 4 mobs entered melee ranged on the cleric the other 116 would likely go ape shit around the zone in with proximity aggro.
