My memories of Classic/Kunark/Velious are too foggy (and I was too casual) to say how much people did or didn't use charm, but I know it was used extensively during Luclin/PoP, and I'm not aware of any changes to the fundamental mechanic between those two time periods. And I'm obviously not talking about Dire Charm.
I played an enchanter from Luclin and through PoP and a bit of GoD, and my recollection is that charm worked more or less the way it does here. It's just that people hadn't been playing MMORPGs for twenty years at the time, nor did we have Gina audio triggers to announce mez breaks so you can react instantaneously, etc. | ||

People knew how to do basic recharming way before that. More unpredictable resists just made it a lot less reliable than it is on P99. | |||

Classic EverQuest: My dial up internet went out and then charm broke and I died. There goes an hour of experience I have to get back since I probably won’t get a Rez.
P99 Everquest: My torched and dual wielding pet just killed me after I used it to kill 10 mobs in 5 mins. Can someone log my Rez bot cleric parked here so I can be back up and running in 5 mins? | ||

As a semi casual enchanter main, without a bunch of level 60s to assist and no rez bot outside of guild requests, I can assure you that solo charming is a much riskier venture than some would have you believe. | |||

Again, it's only Enchanters who have changed their core role from classic to P99.
