Maybe we had bad enchanters back then too (early velious era). We had enchanters try to be cheeky and charm a massively overpowered mob in effort to speed up the raid but would constantly lose charm (bad player? resists? I have no idea) and make our raid twice as hard while it ping pongs around killing every one.

Enchanters were not stacking CHA
Enchanters were using 56k dial up modems
Enchanters were playing on servers with 1999 technology and associated delay
Enchanters were not using GINA audio and text alerts
Enchanters were not using clickies to bypass GCD
Enchanters were not universally using J boots and Goblin rings
Enchanters did not have a wiki and game knowledge to tell them what the best charm mobs are and what to avoid trying to charm

All of this contributes to why the game is played differently now.

Anyways, it's always seemed silly to me, in any game, how people hitting things with a metal stick can even at all compete with people who command literal magic. Like, a mage simply casting diamond skin should render the metal stick guy impotent, no?

Yeah but they swing that metal stick super hard.
