Enchanter's solo
I was under the impression, particularly in the earlier years of EQ, that enchanters had a great deal of difficulty soloing. However, I've noticed on the forums and on the server that people say if you want to solo, enchanter is a good bet. I am wondering if someone could explain to a player unfamiliar with enchanters their solo routine. Do they rely on charms? Pets? Any info you could provide would be helpful, as I am considering taking one up. Thanks!

preface: I do not play an enchanter.
It is my belief though that grinding solo is very mana ineffecient because charm is unreliable and takes a large amount of mana at lower levels. And the sword pet is pretty shitty dps compared to any other pet classes. However... you can solo (albeit somewhat slowly) and you will get a group instantly if one is available. However, once you get to higher levels enchanters can solo/duo camps and named that others cannot just because of charm. Efreeti boot camp comes to mind. | ||

They can get a group easily?
What does an enchanter do in a group? /has yet to be in a group with an enchanter... | ||

can't tell if you're being sarcastic.
If not, clarity/haste/mez makes them wanted in groups and slow as well at higher levels when that starts being necessary. | ||

Enchanters do a ton of crowd control in groups--that much I know. Very difficult to do dungeon crawls without that.

Nope, not sarcastic, just have not been in a group with one.
I know they can change shapes and they can have pets and clarity. That's the extent of my knowledge. | ||

Enchanters at 50+ are the best solo class in EQ, but they are also one of the hardest classes to play correctly.

If you're up for an in-depth, fun read on chanters, check this out: Xornns Enchanter Guide. You can also just skim the different sections that interest you to get an idea, or I'm sure someone here will enlighten you.
