Always go for the lowest level blues you can find. Player level vs mob level plays the greatest part in calculating magic resist and spell stickiness. The greater the difference between your level and the mob's level, the longer your charms, roots, rando duration debuffs etc. will last.

Ah yes this tends to be true, however there are also plenty of mobs to root rot in the area as needed. Druid dots have -100 MR check so worst case you dot up some mobs there until you're of level to more safely charm.
