From what I’ve read CHA only affects the charm’s resist chances, and the length of charm mostly comes down to Magic Resistance and RNG (rolling 5% chance to break every tick?). On a good note I was able to charm the Undead Foreman yesterday on the 2nd try (first try resisted) and it held long enough to finish the quest for my OT hammer and gate out [You must be logged in to view images.

those dogs have a 4 or 5 level range

either way, its mostly level difference with a bit of CHA and magic resist sprinkled in...you're doing all the right things just sometimes RNG-jesus comes and whoops dat ass
