Better farmer, enc, nec or mage?

I wouldn't want to solo the frenzy at 49 with a chanter not using charm. Seems very VERY risky. But, maybe I'm just a terrible player. *shrug*

How is it more risky to do it without charm? I would think the animation would be able to handle one if it's hasted/weaponized and the target is slowed/dotted. Maybe you have to throw a rune/nuke/stun here and there. Worst case you root and resummon another animation.

The risky part would be splitting the camp with lull. Given the level of the mobs you should be able to AOE mez them on a critical resist; what would suck is mezzing yourself due to the nonclassic PVP resist idiocy they implemented for Red. Thankfully that goes away at 55.

I don't really see the difference here; you can always sell your items. Anyway I would guess no. For example if the seafury island wasn't a den of evil I'm quite sure I could solo them in huge groups by rooting them all on top of one another and reverse kiting (charm one, send it in to a pack of 5+, root them all, break/kill your pet, charm another one in the pack etc).
