Much better....
The charm line is now working!
Once it started working it is 100% better....and I was not 70 at the point and time when I wrote my first post....and yeah I have yet to be one hit since I hit 70...but I haven't charmed the best dps'ing sons of guns in the game that I have seen ....Yet! lol.....but yes it works great now!! HUGE improvement from the days of no warning!
These are what my current stats are at 70....and yes I know that int does have a max at 510....but with yet to get anything in t7 raids the best stuff that a mage can wear has lots of int...with other stats...self buffed here is where I am at for now
health 4189 power 6795 avoidance 39.6% str 62 agi 177 sta 193 int 565 wis 241
I had originally set this up going for power for the simple reason that the named mobs in bonemire were soloable....so I built up power and used it to my advantage using mez followed by psychic wail, stroke, mez.......till the named was dead...and got lots of masters out of doing so....that is the part of our game that they changed the most. As for raids I would not still ever use a charmed pet to attack an epic. I am in the main tank group and hate gain is a must on any tank. So as far as not being able to charm in an epic zone that doesn't bother me at all....although I would like to see power drain become effective once again for the illusionist/coercer class to give us something else to do on a raid. Other than that yes....with the new charm line working the way it does is a very welcome change.
