Let's be real, most people right now are too dumb to effectively charm, or play their class period. And that's people dedicated to playing an emulator 20 years later.

Wow, I’m a casul noob and I didn’t realize Enchanters were so OP according to this thread. Why am I wasting time on a Druid?

Based on all the hatred and whining, I am now inspired to roll an Enchanter and bend this silly elf simulator to my liking.

Do we have any evidence that the current charm mechanics are not broken? In other words, is it just a best guess? I legitimately don't know.

The Imp tanking Naggy video really is eye opening. That straights up break one of the most important classic encounters and was certainly NOT how it was done in classic (which I think this project is trying to emulate?).

Just wait for the planes. With Allure, all these chanters are going to charm trash and absolutely destroy the place, no tanks will ever be needed. Again, not very classic.

So confused by this post. When on Blue have you seen tanks not be needed in raids? lol

When folks start clearing the planes, they'll likely use charmed pets for everything. It is just easier. Majority of DPS will also come from charmed pets given the high number of chanters on green/teal and trash level gear classic gives melee dps/tanks.

Summoning might not be working correctly here, the pet owner themselves would have been summoned on Live, or so I believe based on the evidence.

If at any point that imp was at the top of the hate list the chanter should have been toast.

The imp wasn't even tanking at all so I don't know what dude is talking about. They kept a tank up for like 10 minutes. Charm is just necessary when none of your dps can even do anything because of level and gear.

This is true in PoP, an era people agree charm got better because of AA and better charm spells. Except charm wasn't used in every raid or group. Despite being able to charm mobs in fire that don't summon and quad for nearly 800, people didn't charm on raids and most table groups were kite groups. Why is that?
