Mind Control leads on to Dark Enlightenment, False Autonomy and Shackle Horror.

  • Dark Enlightenment

    Increases your haste by 3%.

  • False Autonomy

    Increases the duration of Mind Control and Dominate Mind against enemy creatures by 15 sec.

  • Shackle Horror

    Shackles an aberration or undead enemy for 50 sec, preventing all actions and movement. Damage will cancel the effect. Limit 1.

Same row

Also on this row: Surge of Light, Body and Soul, Mass Dispel, Twins of the Sun Priestess, Strength of Resolve and Psychic Voice or Void Tendrils.

    Prayer of Mending and Leap of Faith increase your target's movement speed by 40% for 3 sec.

  • Mass Dispel

  • Twins of the Sun Priestess

    Power Infusion also grants you its effect at 100% value when used on an ally. If no ally is targeted, it will grant its effect at 100% value to a nearby ally, preferring damage dealers.

  • Psychic Voice

    Reduces the cooldown of Psychic Scream by 10 sec.

  • Void Tendrils

    Call shadowy tendrils to constrict enemies when Psychic Scream ends, rooting them in place for 4 sec.
