Last night I was in a group in Highkeep and we got on the topic of dueling. While I was running my mouth, the magician I was with challenged me to a duel. We were the same level (29) and I said what the hell. He had a fire elemental pet that was blue to me so I decided that the only way I would stand a chance would be to try to charm him into fighting his pet. Well, let me just say that I thought charm was only nerfed on the PvP servers and NOT in PvP mode. Wrong! So I start the duel with the thought of charming him. Hit the song, and wait, and wait, and wait... no pulse! WTF? So I try charming his pet that is now attacking me. Resist, resist, (thinking cool, its pulsing, gonna work), charm sticks but no charm! Instead I got a message saying 'This NPC cannot be charmed.' Dammit! NOOO! Meanwhile, I am getting the hell nuked out of me while trying to figure out what to do next. So I die. I pop back up and my opponents health bar is down (still grouped) and I hear 'Beat, Demi is getting the sh*t kicked out of him.' Come to find out, after looting my corpse, that after I died, his pet agro'd on him. Strange charm bug is what I am assuming.

Has anyone on the list dueled a magician or a caster with a pet and won? He was a really cool guy and I asked him for a rematch some other time. My new tactic is just like how I would fight a wizzie, below him to death. His pet wasn't hitting to hard and I think I can solo his pet by melee and songs. So, I think I can take him by just staying on his butt and keeping his spells interrupted.

Any other suggestions? I am also assuming that Screech won't work either.
