I have dueled a mage once before. I lost, but I learned something.
1) You can't charm the pet. 2) You can't charm people you are
grouped with.

There was a bug where I tried charming the pet and it didn't work.
But once he killed me, his pet went berserk and attacked him... he
almost died. I say, get him back for your guild mates. Charm HIM
into attacking his pet. Let his pet kill him and he will lose exp
;) He will love that!
