They are super strong, but still I don't see them taking over the casual player scene. Before I made a char on P99, I was torn on whether it would be Enc or Nec. So I read the forums for a long time. And the general consensus from people who had both a max or near max level Nec AND max lev enchanter was that solo'ing on the Nec was just more enjoyable/comfortable, even if not as powerful sometimes

I've only played Nec to level 115 on Live, but I would agree with that. Enchanter is always going to be somewhat tense to play. You are always poised for that charm break, assuming you aren't using the animation. Even solo'ing outside you are still hustling to find stuff for the charmed pet to kill or die to, or to find stuff to drag to it if you wanted to plant it near a wall with /pet guard here to be a little safer. Always there is a countdown going in your mind as to how long you think you might have before charm breaks. And any time you are thinking of pulling, in your mind you are always going to have be thinking "ok how many times can charm break in a row before I'm fucked, mana-wise, if I pull right now?"

And I've mentioned this before, but I've never once had a session where afterwards I thought "man, what luck, not a single charm break in the past 30 minutes of killing. How relaxing". It's not gonna happen. Ever. Even killing greens

It's just tense. It'll always be tense. And that just isn't for everybody, especially casual players
