Another question then, what (if any) stats improve your resistance to being Charmed? Best I can tell would be Boosting up on MND... (pet food's restore pethp and lower MND..)

A good way to test this is to have a BLM or someone with /BLM use [[Shock]] on a mob you normally wouldn't try to charm (something Tough for example), and then see how your Charm rate is affected. Who knows, you might find a use for /BLM or /DRK (abs-MND is at like 32 or something). --[[User:Chrisjander|Chrisjander]] 13:01, 16 November 2006 (EST)

BST Charmable?

In my Dynamis - Beaucedine logs, after a Fanatic Dance I see

  • No effect on CourierCarrie.
  • <BST> is charmed.

and then the BST hitting another player. I also see the same thing with a DRG (wyvern isn't charmed, DRG is). I don't see any cases where it says "No effect on <Player>." That's with a jug pet, not a charmed pet, but that makes me doubt that a pet makes the BST immune to charm. --Valyana 21:37, 27 March 2006 (PST)


I'd agree with the above statement. Although I have never been charmed in Dynamis (No mob has tried), I have been charmed a number of times while fighting Xolotl. Each time I am charmed, the pet I have is automatically released. My pet cannot be charmed, but I certainly can. --Daniel 04:48, 19 June 2006 (PDT)

Macro

As a Beastmaster, you'll fail a lot of charms in your lifetime. Especially soloing various NMs and charming resistant mobs. As a Beastmaster, I've used a Earth Staff / Terra's Staff since level 51, and this has saved me many, many times.

My Charm macro:

/equip "Main" "Apollo's Staff"
/ja "Charm" <t>
/echo {Charm} » <t>
/wait 1
/equip "Main" "Terra's Staff"
