At 24th (with maxed divination skill) I know, Illuison Earth Elemental will
last 30 minutes. They now seem to last more than long enough to do whatever
you need to do under them.

1. WTH: doesn't seem to be as great as it used to be, but I still find it
useful. I find it more effective than root when one or more people need to
back off from melee. You must remember to have your tanks kick instead of
bash when you cast this (which is the main problem because your animation
will always bash). And if you're fighting a caster, you can still WTH till
it drops.
2. These also stack with choke. Again, better for PvP, but they do drop the
probablity of a MOB hitting for max damage.
3.Enthrall lasts ALOT longer than mezmerize. Up to 50 seconds, depending on
MOB level, ones 25 and over it seems to last a shorter time on.
4. The speed boost does not rise as you advance in levels, but the duration
of the spell does. The medition boost of clarity does raise with levels.
I like to enthrall first, tashani, pace, disempower, meditate, then choke it
as it comes in. At 18 with a necro or a magician partner, you can start
doing rooks in S Karana. At 22 (it's iffy at 21) an enchanter and a necro
can do harriers. Then at 23, it's lumberjack time.
