I have made it to level 58 without using stun. Mesmerize / Mesmerization work very well. Maybe not reinventing the wheel but I think the wheel has too many spokes

Until you go to lull a room of 5 mobs and the whole room comes. Always try to lull against a wall and then all you have to worry about is getting a 1 second stun off.

Also an 8-second stun buys you enough time to open your spell book, mem an AE mez, cast it and get the situation under control. Mesmerize also has a 1 second longer cast time than Color Slant and depending on the situation that's the difference between life and your spell was interrupted, etc.

I never stun + re-charm

I always do stun + mez (or root if giant or dragon). Then I’ll often refresh bedlam that’s been knocked off, maybe re-root the other target, and re-charm before mez fades

I can see the helpfulness of a stun + re-charm when you have 2+ mobs in melee range tho

I always stun, mez and mem wipe. Then send back in. If not, pet goes back in I end up getting summoned 3-4 times until pet pulls aggro back. Then I have to waste mana and time having to put runes back up.

Good tip. This guy Enchanters. Blurring is one of those spells some don't use much during combat. It's actually a great way to save mana when used right.

If you blur before a charm break, like after you cast slow, etc. then when charm breaks your pet should retake aggro very quickly.
