Classes (back)
Description
Enchanters are a powerful intelligence caster with some unusual abilities. Expect a steep learning curve as you learn to control the chaos.
Stengths/Weaknesses
Pros
- Excellent crowd control (Mez, Stun)
- Ability to charm powerful NPCs as pets (With no diminishing returns on re-charms)
- Excellent buffs (Haste, Mana Regen, Magic Resist)
- Good debuffs (Slow, magic resist)
- Pacify line and high charisma helps with pulls
- Variety of utility buffs (Illusions, Invis, etc)
- High risk vs reward
Cons
- Weak damage without charmed pet
- Learning curve will take some time to master
Grouping
An enchanter pairs well with any priest class in a duo if they are prepared to control a charmed pet. Expect to become proficient at crowd control and charming, which will take some practice. Their presence is always welcome in a group as they get some of the most highly desired buffs in the game, and their debuffs are very helpful when tackling difficult enemies. Their crowd control abilities are second to none, and can turn around otherwise disastrous situations.
Raiding
Enchanters are primarily tasked with buffing and debuffing in a raid setting, although certain encounters may call for their crowd control and other abilities as well. Raids will suffer significantly without at least one enchanter, but do not tend to run with many of the class.
