Serious discussion about Charisma after Charm Nerf

[Fawqueue]

I'm just curious what everyone thinks of stacking Charisma after the charm nerf? It seems to play little part in charm breaks (many reports in the patch thread about having issues even with low-levels, as well as first-hand experience). So is there any reason to waste half the gear slots on CHA gear as opposed to simply stacking INT and STA at this point? It's a little disheartening to waste time and money getting 200+ CHA only to have it seem like it was all pointless. And if that's the case, I almost think the additional mana would help more in the long-run. Any thoughts?
