When you create an Enchanter, your two main attributes are Charisma and
Intelligence. They are highlighted green indicating the most import
attributes for the Enchanter.
When I created my High Elf, I max'd out my INT and dumped the rest into
CHA. I had not played an Enchanter so I wasn't sure how else to split
the stats. I have another character at 16th level in which I did NOT
max out the two main stats because I had played this type of character
in beta and knew I needed some extra points in other attributes.

Just one last comment that many people have seemed to have missed....
CHA
effect many of the charm based spells yes that is true, the thing you
all
are forgeting is that many of enchanter spells even if not named CHARM
spell
are charm based, meaning that CHARISMA does have an effect on them,
which
spells fall under this catagory I am not sure but I have talked to a few
GM
and they have stated that many of our spells fall under this catagory.
