Yeah! I'm playing a Ranger and few others are. That means I'll be... uh... a HOT commodity, right? Right? RIGHT???

The amount of Enchanters is fugging hilarious.

This many enchanters is not classic

Is there evidence of this? To my knowledge, the Charm mechanic is accurate on P99. Each tick it runs through 3 saves you have to make: (i) your level versus the mob's level, (ii) mob's MR, and (iii) your charisma.

Number (i) above actually means Charm is pretty unreliable in the teens and, at times, early 20s (depending on the content you're doing in the early 20s). In the teens it's actually pretty tough to Charm kill reliably as a solo leveling method because it breaks so frequently. During that level range, the level difference between you and a blue con mob is much smaller, so the chance for Charm breaking is pretty high. At higher levels it's much easier to avoid a break because a blue con mob could be several levels lower than you (not to mention you probably have gear at that point that's boosting your CHA). This is classic AFAIK.

Here is your problem. The mobs MR across the board is far too low.

way more reliable than live which is why you never saw it being used

Curious where the information on this is? Not trying to argue about it, actually curious where the proof is since I'd be interested to read about the old mechanics.

How else would you make Charm break other than those three saves I mentioned in my post?

Never? I'll assume you're just exaggerating because you don't have a better argument than making shit up.

But charm being less widely used on live than on here is far from conclusive that it is too strong here. There are lots of mechanics on p99 that we know are classic mechanics but that were not widely used on live because people just didn't know about it. Maybe it IS too strong here, but you aren't proving it by any stretch.
