Enchanter charm isn't classic, we all know this

Untrue. There were no magician pets above level 29 until the May 1999 research fixes, and even most of those were broken. I found a contemporary research guide .doc from the time. Mage research was completely hosed for two full months after launch.

We’re trying to hose enchanters here people, stay focused. Mages are already good and fucked, that ship has sailed and doesn’t seem to be getting the fix that was planned before the main fix in January.

Dolalin surely charm wasn’t this reliable, riskless and effortless on live in this era, use your powers for good this time, not evil.

There were a lot of little charm bugs and things that made charming less attractive on Live than it is now.

1) Nobody had GCD refresh items
2) Tashan line was resistable until May 1999
3) CHA *might* be giving too much of a charm duration bonus here
4) Charmed pets would randomly not obey /pet commands
5) Charmed pets would randomly attack groupmates
6) Mobs 35+ *probably* had higher MR across the board
7) Pets in groups should steal a full share of xp if they outdamage the entire group

That's off the top of my head. It's not just any one thing.

Now that’s what I’m talking about. Let’s get the research crew rolling.

3 and 7 are already bugged.

6 I don't have enough proof for.

4 and 5 are mechanics bugs the staff probably won't implement.

1 is game knowledge.

I haven't bugged 2 yet though tbh.

So 3 and 7 are already reported pending review, 2 potential to follow, and who knows what else can be dug up. Not bad at all.

Implement 4 and 5 and unnerf pet daggers

i implore rogean to check out 1 green raid and im sure looking at the pile in the corner of every class other than ENC and CLR doing nothing will convince him to tweak this

As Dolalin mentioned in his reply, this is simply incorrect.

That list would be minor inconveniences no chanter or group will care about. Would not stop enchanters from charming nor the salty salty tears.
