I heard of reverse-charm solo tactic, where I root, charm, haste a mob, then break charm, re-root, find a new pet, attack uber mob till low hp then break charm again so looks like this will be the way to go. Hide is too unreliable for this it seems, any cheap items that give invis?

To be honest I can outnuke my animation pet but it isn't very mana effecient, glad I'm 41 already as this *nerf* would have sucked in mistmoore!

Thanks for the memory blur recommendation, I'm sure it will come in useful at somepoint, but already a bit strained for spell slots so will have to test out these tactics a bit more.
anyone who recommends memory blur as a tool to regularly wipe hate lists for soloing has obviously never used the spell before. you'd spend a third of your mana on every mob just trying to get memory blur to stick.

the truth is, this is going to make charming for experience way harder for enchanters, if not impossible. hell, it's going to make charming in most groups impossible as well. in a group with enchanter/cleric/warrior my charmed pet will outdamage the warrior every time, and might even outdamage 1 or 2 more dps added to the group.
