This seems very unreliable - as you'd expect at 1 per cent.
Is that as good as it gets, or is there something I can do
to improve my chances? CHA buff, DEX buff, ? ?

also invaluable for when you're chattin with a questNPC and your brother's cat jumps up on your kbd... unless of course hes unrootable... then yas gotta run fast and zone :)
If you Atone a mob you only have a few sec to get out of agro range. So you might want to consider pacifying the mob first then use it. However, if fighting multiple mobs, well if you atone one it will still attack because of agro from the other one. I dunno if the pacifying trick will multiple mobs. But it Might take a few times to Atone.
The most use I usually get from this spell, is for the "escort" type events. PoN maze, 8th prayer shawl, Xanamech event and so forth. In all of these cases, Someone eventually will somehow aggro the quest mob. With the gnome for xanamech, its because we used to mezz him between fights, so everyone had time to medd back up. On PoN maze, it seemed to be from using AOE taunt, or some type of AOE spells when the larger groups of mobs pop.
Since these quest mobs are not naturally KOS, just start chaining atone on them, end eventually they stop attacking and go back to their script.

I sometimes hunt with another cleric...
I find this spell invaluable when there is an add that the tanks can't handle or one that attacks a caster in the group. I root (or stun first), then cast Atone to make them forget, works almost every time. After I'm though playing "chanter", I almost never get agro.
Another situation is when the wrong person is getting attacked (i.e. The nuker), I cast, step back and the tank gets the agro again.
I keep this spell loaded about 75% of the time...and I'm glad I memmed it each time :)

But maybe I don't have enough charisma. However I can never get this spell to work consistently enough to make it worthwhile.
Usually I find it's much easier to stun, root and run as fast as I can.
My opinion, your mileage may vary.
