This thread BOGGLES MY MIND.
Charm almost **NEVER** lasted full duration during classic era. Not for a chanter with 255 CHA etc.
What exactly makes you chanters think that you're entitled to constant full-duration charms!?
YOU'RE NOT A PET CLASS -- HELL YOU'RE NOT EVEN A DPS CLASS. Charmed pets turn your chanter into THE BEST pet class in the game, and one of the best DPS classes. Charm having a random duration is to BALANCE this fact.
God I wish I had known charm was full duration on P99....I would have rolled a chanter instantly. It's funny...cuz I asked COUNTLESS chanters that I saw charming "hey...how long do your charms usually last?"
They almost always said "not very long...its unreliable." Then I would sit there and watch them kill mobs for another 5 minutes without a single charm break. Obviously they were trying to keep it very hush-hush because they KNEW it wasn't balanced and/or accurate to 1999.
