no. i dont parse to confirm dps of charmed pets.
charmed hasted pets in seb quad once every 1.5 seconds. if it stops to cast a 500 pt nuke that takes 5 secodns to cast, you just lost alot of dps.
the biggest problem is the fact it chain dispells your mob. you want that rooted. this is im sure very obvious.

Hrm... my experience when I was forced to charm wizards in seb is that they do a shitton of damage and when they stop they start melee'ing w/ the same max hit as their melee counterparts. Like you, i don't parse so I don't know if they are necessarily doing way less damage, but it never felt that way.
I've never had a problem w/ a caster dispelling my roots, but then again I'm not your typical chanter that solos a lot. I like to group with people, and I'm usually juggling buffing everyone, mezzing, and charming. Having my pet break and start casting a slow spell that gets cancelled by a quick mez instead of getting multiple hits on me can be really awesome versus mobs being in camp needing CC and getting bashed/wailed on by my VoG'ed quadding knight.
i tend to take situations 1 by 1. That being said, i'll keep your advice in mind next time i'm on my enc.
Also, is your avatar Thorin Oakenshield? - edit saw you answered this. who is riff raff?
