I was an enchanter on live and level 40+ before clarity was even added to the class. Charming was much riskier for a multitude of reasons, from duration, to it being viable to keep yourself Rune'd, but most importantly the very obviously broken Channeling.
Torching for auto quads is another obvious p99 invention, though I don't think anyone contends that. The memblur rate on Mez is yet another broken thing that isn't even contested - nobody who played back then thinks Mesmerize actually blurred like 50% of the time.
There's other issues too like Pacify, but ultimately all that really matters is Channeling. If we had era appropriate Channeling, Enchanters would be close enough to fixed. I can't think of anything else in this games history, and I've been around for a little bit, to have such a wide breadth of evidence proving it to be broken on p99, but simply ignored.
It would change the game entirely.
