When I charm, I hold my *drum* because Selos is the key to successful
charming. Keep Selos going at all times. Especially when you first get
charm and don't have a lot of hp and dont want to get hit, you will be doing
the charm thing from a distance. I'd strongly suggest learning charm in the
great outdoors where you have room to manuver and escape if you need to.
Also, I would suggest practicing on stuff you can kill two of without charm.
Much of it is learning the distance from the mob to cast the song. I have
only 2 hotkeys for charming: /pet attack and /pet guard me (actually /pet
guard me also has /pet who leader and /time on the same social hot key).

Selos around and find 2 things to charm. With Selos playing, Sirens on one,
eyes glaze over, target other & /pet attack. Selos again and move away.
When you see the "your charm has ended..." message, keep Selos going and get
into position to charm again. Usually this means look at your now 2
attackers and when your former pet is close enough, re-charm. As you ar
recharming, move away. And because you kept Selos going, you can move away
at speed. Believe me you will be happy you did. Eyes glaze over. Play
Selos again and move away.
