Learn to solo with Charm. It's possible as early as 12.
On the original live server in 1999/2000 I would agree with this last statement. I did that very thing and was soloing reds a LOT. I did this starting in North Karana with Beetles and various Griffs.
I rolled my enchanter on P1999 and headed to the Karanas once I hit the same level as I did on the original live. I got my ass handed to me several times because charm does NOT last anywhere close to how it did back in the day. I had a character of the same race and had better +cha gear and still charm was horrible. This was a big disappointment as I was really looking forward to reliving the good old days in this way. It was fun!
I asked about this difference and posted it as a bug. I was told that it's not going to change. Others have said that at 39, charm is far better and Enchanters finally get closer to how they were on classic.
