That's not true at all. Castersrealm pulled the info directly from the server and was confirmed correct by devs back then.



Trying to Lull blue cons while having a good amount of charisma often did not work. As shown in the other thread, Lulls simply got resisted far more often back then, which also meant more critical resists, meaning it was rarely a reliable tool.
CR was a terribly basic, rarely updated website. It didn't pull anything "directly from the server" (what does this even mean?) and relied on user-supplied info, not spdat parses or "the server."

On live I had an ENC bound outside of Sebilis during early-mid Velious and I would regularly solo my way to NG while naked, using Lull. Also never had much of an issue with charm breaks, despite all of the claims to the contrary that I see in this forum.

Wrong. There is an entire interview about it, with the actual designer of the Everquest spells, who was working on the game throughout the entirety of classic. Casters Realm, certainly during classic era, scraped the game files for their info and he confirmed it was correct.

I am curious to know how people, who had high level enchanters, recall how viable lull was for splitting level 50+ mobs in classic era and expansions, or if that was simply no longer viable at that point.
It wasn't viable. Already wasn't reliable to begin with on most blue-con mobs. Hence the mountains of people, who did have high Charisma, talking about how much Lull sucked and how jealous they were of Harmony.

Harmony is dirt cheap, AE and cannot fail or even get resisted. Even with lull not sucking the advantages (outdoors) are obvious. The only AE lull ench get is 300 mana with a significant cooldown and comes with all the drawbacks of ench lulls.

7mins lull is great in general though.
