And even with the odd break you only lose him for a couple seconds. Any caster who isn't an idiot doesn't need root to med, I never miss a med tick while kiting. It ain't hard to count to 5 mississippi.

TD raptors have up to 4k hp (Vicious even more), it takes far, far longer for them to die using fear. I can sustainably kill a lot more mobs in a cycle letting the pet tank than by fearing. I did levels 50 through 55 at raptors and tried both methods extensively. Charm durations being what they are, it doesn't work very well to rely on the same mob for too long.

And it doesn't work every time. I use Hide myself but I could see how the invis ring would make life easier, you can go 8-9 clicks in a row and not break charm some times. If 10k is nothing to you I'd recommend the ring.
