Very nice to have but it isn't what will put you on the solo artist leaderboard, a charmed pet is almost always better even if more of a hassle. It nearly solo'd ghost of kindle (52) but a max level krup knight would probably require a lot of help to keep it alive, at that point a torched dar is much less trouble even if charm may break. And yeah you could chain animations but you'd have to rebuff them and if the mob summons you'd have to mez it first, not sure if that is less of a PITA.

Most tough charm fights hang on if charm will break or not, basically all RNG. Shamans seem a lot more laid back like snaggles said.
Yea I don’t think anyone is arguing that the animation is superior to charm it was more of a question of what is the animation capable of. Sometimes it’s nice to just throw it in for easier fights or trash if you want to not have to think about breaks or doing something else at the same time. It’s not hard to kill summoning mobs with just mez and resummon as needed just gets annoying as it takes some time to rebuild aggro pet aggro is kinda broke on this server iirc. Having an epic really helps for rehaste on those fresh pets and saving a spell slot.
