Treasure Chest in PoM forest bugs

[Vaarsuvius]

Hi,

I'd like to report a couple bugs about the Treasure Chest NPC that spawns in PoM forest (the one surrounded by 4 halflings)

It's an enchanter mob that uses Theft of thoughts, Tashania, Curse of the Simple Mind, Gravity Flux, Gasping Embrace, Incapacitate, Discordant Mind, Shiftless Deeds, and last but not least Allure
According to the wiki, Allure only enables to charm creatures up to level 51. So how can it charm a lvl 58 player ?

On the one hand, I've noticed a few times already that as soon as it manages to charm me (58 necro), all the DoTs I had managed to land on it would fade right away. Even those that may have landed on it a few seconds earlier.
But on the other hand, any debuff or DoT it may have landed on me would NOT fade when I get charmed.
Is it how things are supposed to work ?

Could you have a look at those issues please ?

Thanks in advance

Posts in the Bug Reports forum are supposed to have evidence.

For the first issue: devs here won't do classic research most of the time. We the players are supposed to find the documentation that mobs' charms were level-capped in classic times. But I bet they weren't. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

For the second issue, that's exactly how that's supposed to work.

If a mob DOTs and Roots you, then you charm the mob, its DOT and Root will come off of you. It doesn't work the other way - you DOT and root the mob, then charm it, it's still DOTted and Rooted.

Likewise, if you DOT and root the mob, those detrimental spells will come off of the mob when it charms you. But when it DOTs and Roots you, then charms you, its DOTs and roots will not come off you.

So that works exactly the same for both PC charming NPC and NPC charming PC. Whoever charms the other guy wins.

I guess I'll have to try that DoT & debuffs magically vanishing when you charm their caster with my enchanter, but it's so broken (both ways)
That damn Chest has charmed me so many times when it was between 15-30% hp just to see it regen to full it's not even funny

the dots on the chest arent fading when you get charmed, its falling out of combat and npcs out of combat regen their hp at insane rates. im pretty sure the dots are still on it you just wont notice because its gaining like 8% hp a tick. could be wrong but unless you are seeing spell faded messages right when it charms you its still dotted

I feel like the dots shouldn't be wearing off just because a player is charmed.
