Back during Velious my perma groupmate was a very well geared, very skilled enchanter. We would have him charm for DPS as often as possible, but keeping a Bok in Seb perma charmed while 2-3 man farming proved to be a resource drain (although a huge dps boost). For one... lull was much more unreliable. Additionally, mobs just seemed to do more dps to players.

There's some mechanic here that makes it different, but pinpointing it exactly is difficult.

This can't be right, if you go on EQmac which it seems is the new thing to do for devs and players here to test things. You will find that even with low end charisma the charms there hold a great deal longer than on here. Without very much gear over there you can contribute with charm far more effective with much less charisma than on this server. Charm is strong here with high charisma, but on EQmac it seems to operate differently than here across the board.
