What makes twinking a caster "great"

From what I understood from a different post, the charisma check on charm tick is insignificant compared to the level difference and mob MR.

Compared to critical on pacify resist and initial charm cast where charisma is a more significant figure in the equation compared to the same level difference and mob MR.

On mobile, I can dig for the forum post I believe I have it bookmarked. It’s likely a case of different posts having different influence but I do have some anecdotal evidence.

Levelled both a Necro with netted kelp and 25 CHA and enchanter with 200 CHA same spots per level progressing through Howling Stones, and the necro never had a problem with early charm breaks - neither did the enchanter. However, the necro had significantly more crit resists on pacify (close to 33% crit on resist) compared to much more like <10% crit on resist pacify on Enchanter.

The necro additionally had more resists on the initial cast of charm than the enchanter, who rarely had a resist on charm unless the mob was a tougher target.

I mean I'm sure you've heard this but, from what I've seen people saying on this forum, only Enchanter's have a charisma component to their charm and Necros/Druids do not have one its purely level oriented.

IDK if that's true, but, supposedly that's the case.

Maybe it's not this simple but like, surely this is somewhat provable by having maybe a mid-level enchanter charm a white mob with like 200+ charisma a bunch of times, then do it again with no charisma gear on at like 85-90, compare the results.

Bring a druid or something to keep the mob perma rooted/snared.

If the difference isn't noticeable over like 100 charms at each stat value, then we could safely say that either it has no impact or the impact is so minuscule that it can be ignored.
