I will look into seeing if necromancers are affected differently than other folks, but fails should be common.

I don't think Necromancers are affected differently. I think they are affected exactly the same, and I wonder if that is accurate. It's not really an effectiveness issue because even with 75% critical resists you can FD and try again which is not an option for an enchanter. It just doesn't really make sense to me that necromancer lull would have charisma based failure, but I didn't post any evidence, just a gut feeling.
On Loraen (with 225ish charisma) I would guess that Lulling a L50 mob I would get about 50% resists (compared to like 5% resists for normal spells) and of those resists about 5% would be critical resists.
I know Xornn says Lull is worthless in his enchanter guide but a) he ran around with 100 cha and b) he didn't have a WC cap in case of an ugly critical resist. IIRC there was a post where someone (Giegue?) posted evidence from ~2000 that Lull worked pretty well but my search foo is sucking tonight and I can't find it.
