The Warden scribing charm is nearly impossible to block because there is no easily identifiable telegraph like Arcanist charm. In a 1v1 you might notice the Warden Contingency animation if you're laser focused and expect the Warden to charm. But in all other PvP, the charm is basically guaranteed to land on anyone in the AOE.
Surely this is a bug and not intended, otherwise the Charm is way too overpowered.
Also, I've noticed the Charm has a 1 second delay on break free. It usually takes 0.5 seconds before you realize you're charmed. Once Break Free cancels the charm, there is a cancellation animation for another 0.5s where your character position is sync'd and you can't cast any abilities during this window. 1 second is massive in PvP and you can go from 100% health to dead in this time.
