Despite having 201 charm at level 12, I had charm breaking randomly and at short durations when charming greens, blues, and light blues. I always tashed first.

I suppose you mean charisma and not "charm"

Charisma has nothing whatsoever influence on charm spells.
Only thing that matters is if it resists it or not wich is a pure resist role nothing else.
There have always been these discussions, and people still havn't gotten it.
People do also discuss early breaks of charm, and I am 99% sure its a random thing how long the charm is working nothing else.

Again Charisma only matters on merchant prices up to 115 charisma. every cha point over there is worthless

Sorry, but that is incorrect. Its possibly true now on Live, but we are talking about Classic. It was said repeatedly by Verant and shown by at least one near-classic-era log that CHA does have an effect on mezz, resisted lull aggro, and charm (both initial resist and duration).

You can read the documentation here: http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=6733

You are correct however that some people still haven't gotten this. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
