Classes: The Enchanter

Enchanter - the game's traffic cop. When the enchanter yells stop, creatures cease what they are doing and just wait to die. A complex class, enchanters get a variety of spells as well as a pet, and can be played in a number of different ways.

What is the best way to develop and play an enchanter? What spells are most and least important? Can an enchanter be soloed, and if so how? What skills are the most important for an enchanter? How should an enchanter be played in a group?

Post your strategies on how to best play and develop the Enchanter and read, rate and comment on what others have to say.

What kind of merc should an enchanter use?

Some of you may have already figured this out and if you have please share.

I need advice on what kind of merc a chanter should employ. Have used a healer merc while charm killing but it isn't working very well. Of course, am only level75 and charming nymphs/minotaurs in DSH. Maybe I'm in the wrong zone. Should I retain the healer merc or go hire a melee merc? If so, any recommendations as to race of melee merc?

Thank you.

The race of your merc is not going to change anything except your view. A warrior merc will work for you only if you get one of the more expensive ones. Otherwise the merc will taunt the mob off of your pet and get pounded into the ground. The higher tiered mercs can take hits much better than the econo-models.
The downside of having the warrior merc will be your inability to heal him, which may not be an issue if you need a mana break after the fight. If your merc is about to die you have the option of mezzing the mob so long as you have not dotted it.

The cleric you already know about. Low end cleric mercs are slightly more acceptable than their warrior equivelants (sp?), but you will also see a marked improvement of a healer mercs performance based on their tier, aka their cash flow, hehe.

Either way you are going to be missing something you really need to be efficient. I would imagine in the long run you would be best off with the healer merc unless you want to spend all your plat on the high end merc fees. Otherwise you are going to have a tank with no healer...

NOTE: IF YOU RUN OUT OF MONEY WHILE USING A MERC THEY WILL QUIT. They will not suspend themselves, they walk away and you are out of your purchase cost and your merc.

I hope in some way this helps you in your decision. Good hunting and safe journies.
