from Torven a TAKP dev (this is data gathered from eqmac a 2002 locked server)... probably the best you'll ever get for p99 era mechanics.
Quote:
I didn't implement the charm resist logic, I merely un-broke it. The resist check on ticks just wasn't working at all. The only reason some charms even broke early was because the resist check (for all spells) was set to > instead of >=, so it was possible for any target to resist anything at any resist level if it rolled 0.
The current charm resist logic was implemented by Kayen, an eqemu dev. He did many parses on Live some time ago. What I did was replicate his C++ code in lua so I could unit test it and compare it against my own parses. They matched close enough that I accepted it and moved on to the next problem.
Charm is supposed to have a chance to break at any time, on anything, even with 0 resist, even with enchanter AA TD3. If you cast 3 charms, get a bad streak of breaks, and give up, then that's the RNG and not the algorithm.
Also the algorithm currently makes charm much, much less effective on yellows and reds by giving them a substantial resist bonus. I didn't add that, but I left it in. Charm on a white con however will hold as well as charm on a green con so long as tash or malo remains on it. (yellows may hold if you have tash+malo) Charm will not currently hold very well if the target has any significant MR. If you charm a caster and it casts a shielding buff, then it's not gonna hold well unless you debuff it a lot.
Here's some of my parse analyses. Note that average charm durations will not be directly comparable on spells with different maximum durations.

The main factor of charm duration is the mobs MR, and there's no way to know those original values and most likely p99 does not have them right.
