I need some assistance with Charm. I've had this song for several levels
now and just simply can't figure out the proper method of using it. I see
messages from some of the talented bards on this list saying "Yeah, two Hill
Giants, no biggie. I just charmed them against one another and got both
kills." I would be dead or zonign within 15 rounds if I tried this. At
level 31 HGs are still red to me, so let's take the Choon and Froon brothers
as examples because they're blue.

Here's how I think it should work (remember, my base INT is only 75):

- Set up a hotkey panel with Selo's, Charm, "/pet attack", "/pet back off".
- Equip drum and fire up Selo's.
- Sneak up to the bros and Charm one.
- Assuming Charm sticks, the other will probably immediately attack it due
to its inheriting my factions, but if not, click on the other brother and
hit "/pet attack" hotkey.
- Click on original charmee.
- Start Selo's.
- Watch ensuing battle.
- When Charm breaks and brother runs toward me, hit Charm again.
- Assuming Charm sticks, the charmee *should* return to previous "/pet
attack" status.
- Repeat until one is dead.
- Once one is dead, the problem shifts to a kite or chain/fear issue to
finish survivor off.

I've tried this. Hell I can't even make this work with Orc Centurians in
East Commonlands. Either I totally misunderstand something or I'm just not
coordinated to pull it off.
