charism affects lull
# Nov 12 2002 at 12:16 PM Rating: Decent
According to a news item I saw at Casters Realm recently, charimsa affects lull.

I personally cannot say how useful charisma really is, I have no real data to go on, but it SEEMS to make a difference in charm duration. When I have high charisma my charm seems to last longer than w/o it.

As far as it affecting mezz, I have not seen it change the duration of mezz. I do not personally know nor have any data as to whether charisma helps a mezz to stick, but I can say that Tash certainly seems to play a big role.

All this is just based on my personal observation. I have done no "scientific" test.

Good luck all.
say What ? ? ? ?

To all u wana be chanters who said CHA is not needed .. and to all who said it effects Resists.... CHA does NOT affect resists .. it affects TIME of DURATION for spells of the following catagories: Root, Charm, Mez, and Benevelance (so I can't sell). As u get Higher ... u need MORE Cha to affect mobs of your lvl .. of course lower lvl get easier as Experience is the best teacher.

With Lower CHA ... the spell will stick but last 1 tic .. maybe 2 if lucky ...

Last .. use your CHA buffs on youself and charm some blues .. check your average lasting (recomend u keep Sow up for when charm breaks) --- then do the same without CHA ... u will see the difference.

THAT IS CHA.

P.S. CHA also affects Druid spells in the same way --- snare, root, charm animal, and the snaring dots.

Charisma does not affect Root. The target's MR does and level vs. your level does.
Charisma does not affect duration of Mezmerize. Level 4 Mez = 24 seconds. If it sticks, it's for 24 seconds. Always. Level 49 Mez = 96 seconds, etc. Always the same duration, unless the mob is damaged.
Charisma most definately affects duration of charm spells.
Charisma does not affect the Alliance, Benevolence, Collaboration series. These spells have no duration. Use them once, you're good until you zone.

Hmmm, can't say I agree with you there. In my experiences, the only thing cha affects for an enchanter is charms. I've done extensive testing, and whatnot, and it really doesn't effect mezzing at all. The benevolence line is static, as in the amount of faction gained never changes, no matter your level, or cha. Root? Cha does not affect root at all. And for those that may tell me I have no idea what I'm talking about, my enchanter is level 58, and I've been playing for nearly 2 years. My buffed cha is 215 right now, though, I've gone on many naked CRs where buffed I have only 150cha. Seen no difference in resists from 215 to 150 with mezzes...only charms. Cha also does in fact affect duration, but ONLY on charms. Mezzes have a set duration, no matter what. (This is extremely easy to test). At level 40, izadrozny, your mez will last 1 minute, give or take a couple seconds. That will not change. If you don't do a lot of charming, I would recommend int/mana over cha anyday. Once you start getting higher level gear, and higher level buffs, cha is easy to come by, but nothing can beat a high mana pool. And to quote Izradrozny, "Experience is the best Teacher." :P

I'm trying to decide if this is less of a pain to quest than the prayer shawls. I think i'd rather have this.

They have finlay figured out that Enchanters want INT and CHA. And to think it only took almost 3 years. I'm just ******** because of some of the worthless beyond worthless Hate items they made.

While Enchanters DO wear Int and Cha, just about any Enchanter worth their mana will tell you that cha has such a small effect that you're better off with HP/AC/Resists on gear. I've tested it myself. Went from 209 to 120 and have noticed NO change in resists. Even people who have done parsing, show that AT MOST it will make up to about a 3% difference in resist patterns, most of which can likely be attributed to randomness. =)

i for-sure dont no all (including spelling) (= but i have been in Casic thule for past few weeks and i have had much practice at mezing highly resistant mobs i am a 58 ench and have 255cha with buff and HP/cha gear on i was in a group in sewer with a 2nd enchanter (not needed but was buddy) and i can tell u that with his 205cha at lvl 60 his mez was resisted much more often than mine was and i am 2 lvls under him so to me cha is most important

psst. ask yourself how often do i die in a group OOM?

I completely disagree with the statement that cha has a "small effect" on resists. In Karnor's castle I am resisted 25%+ of the time at 161 CHA, with Adorning Grace (+40 CHA), I am resisted under 10% of the time. It may just be a series of coincidences, but I have tested it several times (I usually forget to put my cha buff on before sitting down for camp and figure it out after I keep getting resisted).

Yes, Mana is the most important stat, especially since most people specialize in Alteration (I think that's a mistake) rather than conjuration. In my duties in a group, I would say at least 60% of my mana output is put into mez. Haste * 3 tanks sucks mana up, but since haste only fades every 10 minutes.. you do the math. However, you cannot dismiss your charisma stat. There is a reason verant has so many enchanter items with +CHA on them.. and it is for your and your group's health.


*ALSO* Keep in mind if added charisma even increases your chance of not being resisted by 5%, that means that you have not completely wasted an entire mez 5% of the time.. which again, is less mana consumed.

My 2 plat.

I know alot of people dont contribue charisma as being an effective method for assisting in resist of enchanter spells (mind controlling). There have been two instances where This has proven to me beyond a shadow of a doubt that Cha affects ALL mind controlling spells, not just enchanters. A few nights ago I raised my cha from 122 to 132, and seen a significant difference in resist. In addition, while grouping outside with a fellow rogue, we decided to test this against Instill Doubt. He was level 40 at the time and we tried 30 minutes and recorded the number of resist. Then I gave him some cha gear and raised his charisma up with my buff as well. Then we recorded for another 30 minutes fighting the same mobs. I think he was resisted a couple times. But people really should try this out for themselves. But keep something in mind, an enchanter depends on keeping a mob under control. You may want the extra mana, but the mana is worthless if your dead.
