I started charming in the mid-20s with Osargen while grouped in Goblins. Just park him a bit away from the group and charm breaks shouldn't wreck you too hard. If you get a break at the same time the ill-disciplined puller brought in all of raider room and your healer is lom then yes, you will likely die. If charm breaks when a single mob is on your tank or even two mobs then you will likely survive if you cast your color-stun and then mez Osargen. Can either re-charm then and there or wait a bit and re-mez while getting things under control with the mobs in camp.
I started charm-soloing at around level 31-33 at the Yeti camp in DL. It was pretty hard core until around lvl 34-35 and from there it was smooth sailing and amazing exp until I moved to goblins in Loio at around lvl 42-43. Stayed there until lvl 49. This was the "coming of age" camp for my charm-soloing "skills". Have never looked back. Whenever I have gone against my better judgment and grouped the exp have been terrible in comparison. And that's including the odd CR. Oh and yeah if you are careful and remain somewhat concentrated you will die very rarely while soloing for exp. I have small kids and so have just adopted the doctrin of always having gate memmed while exp'ing and being "better safe than sorry" in case I suddenly have to afk.
