quick bard charm question

[guineapig]

I know there have been a lot of changes to charm as well as to bard mechanics in recent weeks/months so I just had a quick question.


With the current state of bard charm, how important is charisma gear for effective soloing?

Are we talking about trying to get charisma up to around 200+?
Or is using a blue con low magic resist mob enough?

I'm currently using a Unicorn Horn as my wind instrument.
