Yeah, that's what happened. My party and the charmed mob were
whacking at another mob. I didn't recharm my pet in time when
my party killed the other mob, and its corpse went *poof*.
I'm assuming the charmed mob's damage is tallied separately
from the party's damage. There are enough potential bugs with
charm in determining group aggregate damage that it makes my
head spin.
