I usually have to assist my pet win, and it ends up at 25% to half health when the fight ends. Then I hit hide, break the charm, and root-rot my (former pet). Gets me two xp kills pretty easily.

I'm not sure if this way of killing two mobs at once would be more mana-efficient than just rooting both of them and dotting though. I have to test that still.

I'm glad it works for you! Are you doing at least 50% damage to ensure you don't split xp with your pet? I think I was trying to charm-kill equally matched blue mobs in EK, and breaking charm before either one dies. Been a little while now though. Charming is definitely the most mana-efficient xp for a druid, though. Definitely don't miss out on gator pit and gator alley in CT, I think it's in your late 20s/30s.
