The actual point is that from the second enchanters get charm it is powerful and can be used/abused regularly to result in far more effective solo capability than a warrior can expect. Done properly there is basically no down time and will result in significantly more kills over time than the best of twinked out warriors.

My warrior had 34% haste, fungi and comparable weapons. Could I solo like a buzz saw for the early levels? Absolutely but there was still down time. At best I might have been able to break even with a charm pet fighting monsters of comparable level. Fighting mobs close to the level of the charm pet? No way.

This side tangent is absolutely idiotic.

Nobody argued that point that Enchanter charm gets more powerful hehe. I was simply countering the point that classes like Shamans are dead weight in lower levels. This is true, Shamans suck from levels 1-30, but the point is classes like Enchanters and Clerics really aren't much better. They also need about 30 levels to really get going. So it isn't a good argument to say "don't take a Shaman, because they are dead weight at low levels". That is true for other classes too, and you would want to take them since they scale great later on.

Again, Enchanters at low levels have a lot of downtime too. You are vastly underestimating low meditate values, resists, fizzles, interrupts, etc. at low levels. I am leveling an Enchanter, I know hehe.

My Warrior just has SCHW, Wurmslayer, and Fist of Zek.

You're just straight up wrong. As I mentioned before I duo'd enc/enc from 1-55. Me and my buddy were duoing camps and killing faster more efficiently in our teens than entire groups. Enchanters are broken powerful. Even if your stupid warrior can do comparable damage (debatable) it can't sustain it as long as a well played enchanter can. I can't believe you're honestly trying to argue this shit. It's fucking absurd.

Here is my 24 Warrior fighting a level 24 mob with just 22% worn haste from Silver Chitin Hand Wraps, so he could still be spell hasted. He is using Wurmslayer and Fist of Zek. This example doesn't have crit/crippling blows:

As I said before, classes like Enchanters aren't as good as you think at lower levels. From levels 1-30 or so, even with a decked out pet, your DPS isn't going to be amazing. This also doesn't consider your lower mana pool, slower mana regen, fizzles, interrupts, spell resists, etc. Enchanters will have downtime too because your skills are lower level. I am leveling an Enchanter up, so I know.

It is silly to say "classes that aren't great at low levels shouldn't be taken". Enchanters obviously get way more powerful later on, so it is worth the wait. It is the same thing with Shamans. They suck from levels 1-30 or so, but get much more powerful later on.

Carry some silver chitin hand wraps on your Enchanter,up to lvl 30 pets,they will haste cap with alacrity and cheap enough to be throw away
I had alot of fun in cazic Thule on my enchanter high 20s to low 40s, nice and hectic solo and grouping

Oh my example was showing a pet with Tola Robe (36% haste item). The Haste spell is simulating that, because I don't have a Tola Robe on my Enchanter at the moment. My Warrior didn't have spell haste on, so that means both the pet and the Warrior could still be spell hasted. The DPS difference wouldn't change, the numbers would just increase for both when they get spell hasted.

You guys must get tired of being proven wrong. Not surprising, since all you can do is insult and meme. I would love to see some data.
