When are they Implementing the Charm Nerf?

I mean it sure sounds like some people knew how to charm and mitigate the risk in classic, per your own findings.
It seems like your asking for the class to be changed,to change players. Player knowledge base cannot be changed, people on p99 like to push things to their limits.
I would love to go back to eq when noone knew anything,but it's not realistic with 20+ years of knowledge readily available

Yes, as I keep repeating, they did know how to charm! And yet ... most Enchanters grouped. If you played on live (and played in groups), you know this to be true, and that it was also true for tanks and clerics, which formed the "holy trinity" of grouping back then.

Now, one can argue about minutiae, eg. "they weren't aware of GCD resets, that's why they didn't charm", but I find that a weak argument. GCD resets don't make or break charming, they just make it a little more convenient.

So again, I'm not arguing classic players never charmed. What I'm arguing is, charm was more risky in classic, and as a result far fewer charmed. The fact that so many here charm, and so few charmed on live (or, again, that the Enchanter class is played differently here ... while every other class is played the same) is evidence our emulator isn't as risky as the original game was.
