Dominate Mind

So what’s the matter that most guides recommend Dominate Mind in our Class tree for M+?
Is there any cheese mechanic we can do with this?

It’s more that you need to take it or the root talent to get to vampiric embrace / leech and the root talent is awful. There are some places to use dominate mind either as an unbreakable cc or for the effect the mob has (Most notably vortex pinnacle) and more useful tricks / good mobs to take control of will be discovered as the season progresses.

Using it often on a ranged mob thats pinging me healing or a dps player thats getting hurt and the tank hasn’t dealt with it, to bring it in

It’s worth to just emergency cc trash that’s overtuned and a group just can’t handle it. Like double pelter in NL especially this week with fort bolster.

If you can just heal it, don’t bother.

There’s a few places:

Adepts in VP (especially the last 2 pulls).

Double pelter pack in NL

Primalists before the third boss in HOI (they won’t empower the dragons of their type if MCed).

Final Boss channelers in HOI.

Sorry could you clarify what you mean by this?

I think they made them all glacial dragons, actually, so just icecallers - but I’m pretty sure Icecallers empower the glacial dragons and can be MCed out.

Definitely saw it really early in M0s. Though I mostly skip those packs now.

Mind soothing past that middle dragon pack feels legitimately illegal with how close you are.

Dominating slimes on the tree boss in Bracken is good, they actually do decent dmg.

Also dominating spiteful is amazing tech, can just delete a spiteful every 30s, get out of combat quicker to drink, free up a caster DPS from having to kite it, etc.

Oh yeah, ravagers at the start of Halls have a 20% attack speed and movement speed aura that affects unholy DK pets, ALL of them. :>

Quickly can snipe the spiteful spawns. Makes this week not so bad + if it’s the last one it instantly drops group combat.

You reenter combat briefly when it dies though, so it still interrupts your drink.

Shadow priest don’t drink!

No but the healer you get out of combat might be :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s good but it’s not perfect, and people don’t know much about how dominate mind works so I just try to be informative where possible.
