Mentalist newbie question

[old.Mr Gnarf]

i started a mentalist some days ago and really wonder, if charm is very usefull or not.
and errmm im not sure if i use it in a correct way. first i target a mob then i cast charm on it and it is charmed. seems simple and clear, but when i try to send my charmed pet to attack another one, i have to target the other pet, which will be charmed then and i will loose my old pet. so how can i use my pet in an effective way? and is there a way to stop this spell?
well, im not very experienced with casting classes, so any advice is very welcome

Charm is bugged right now, but will be fixed in patch

The charm pulse is on a timer,
W8 for the pulse, Target other mob press attack then retarget your own mob in time for the pulse,,

yeah it's not easy to use - and it costs a lot of mana ;(
You can mantain a mob nearly infinite if u have power regen 2 and rest.
