If every spell landed every time and lasted for full duration then this would be one hell of a boring game. Certainly charming on a low-level enchanter is trickier than on a druid (since druids literally never need to get hit unless they're charming indoors) but it is very doable.

I don't really expect things to always land, but seriously half of the green mobs I kill broke charm early and lull spells land maybe 10% of the time? I'm 24 with 167 chr, you'd think on greens I'd just have the base 5% chance to fail at this point. It's just been a little frustrating when you feel like most of these tools exist more as a joke than something useful for overcoming the challenges in the game. Lulls never land, chanter nukes have such a ridiculous agro pull and such an astronomical resist rate I can't ever use them except for the final hit on a mob that's running.
Even in groups the only spells I ever cast on a mob are tash and slow. What's the point of all these spells when tanks can't reasonably out agro them?
edit: and sorry I'm kind of derailing the thread with my rantings at this point.
