At least i GET a ToT target every break, and by ToT'ing it I reduce the mana it has so it casts less and melees more - it still has the same hit table as other mobs.
the dmg put out by a hasted dual wielding melee does 3x the dps of a charmed caster.


also once casters get oom they spam dispells and blinds.


with color slant and boltrans you can recharm with out taking one melee if youre decent.

Do you have numbers to back up your 3x claim? I'd be interested to see parses of different charmed mobs. I haven't played ENC in over a year and when I did was i was just charming the zol knights in seb or melee skellies in HS.

That being said, I can definitely see the value of charming a caster in a mana tight scenario, such as KC basement.

Also, is your avatar Thorin Oakenshield? That's who I see when I see him.

no. i dont parse to confirm dps of charmed pets.

charmed hasted pets in seb quad once every 1.5 seconds. if it stops to cast a 500 pt nuke that takes 5 secodns to cast, you just lost alot of dps.

the biggest problem is the fact it chain dispells your mob. you want that rooted. this is im sure very obvious.

Why does everything immediately have to be an argument with you?

Civil discussion is just too challenging, is that it?

Why you gotta come into this thread, rustle up all these nice people? Got nothing better to do than to come into Skittlez's thread and SHOW YOUR ASS?

basicly its more dangerous to sit around with a shitty charmed pet that breaks as often as a melee. you want to get in and finished with combat asap. if you have some terrible caster pet that is oom spammin dispells you have to re root it often, you are in fights for twice the duration which equals DANGER !

nawm sayin?
