Enchanters were always able to charm effectively. The formulas may not be exactly the same, but the effectiveness is close currently. The reason more enchanters did not was because they didn't have 255 charisma for the most part, and without that, charm IS useless. This is one (of MANY) examples of using non-classic strategy within a classic ruleset to accomplish things that were not accomplished during the classic period. We all know more now, older & wiser etc.
There's an old bull and a young bull grazing on the pasture. The young bull looks down the way a bit and sees a bunch of hot young heifers grazing with no bulls around. Excitedly, he exclaims: "Hey old bull, let's run down there and fuck one of those cows!" The old bull snickers softly and he languidly starts walking towards the females, saying: "No boy. Let's walk down, and fuck them all."
Never underestimate experience.
