What zones can a bard reasonably 1v1 solo in using primarily melee?

You would get more crit resists, yes.

Great for pulling stuff that is in range but out of line of sight.

Assuming I go Crustacean and pass it on to my Paladin later, is that Cha penalty going to hurt a Paladin that's called upon to Lull enemies for pulling?

Yes. By a lot. Level difference is the most important aspect of using lull but a paladin in crusty will have a much harder time. Most of the time it’s not a big deal but in the times where you’re asked to pull it generally isn’t just a matter of convenience.

If you’ve got a group with rockin cc/support I prefer to bring in multiples as it saves mana and time. If I’m lulling it’s usually solo/duo or hunting mobs of sufficiently high danger (ie higher level mobs with tighter packing) that you have to expect you run a chance of a resist. At 130-140 charisma I generally feel pretty secure knowing that resist will turn out ok.

So a Dwarf Paladin with only 55 base Cha is going to be pretty shitty at Lulling enemies anyway.
