High level WoW priests all eventually discover Mind Control - the strangest and most exploitable ingredient in MMO history. It allows you to take control of another player or mob within 20ft of your character for a few seconds. Let your imagination run wild. Controlled mobs can be used to buff your team, but that’s no grief. They can also be made to run toward your team, who might otherwise be trying to carefully avoid the aggressive party. But there’s one much better use.

How to: And no, it’s not to run people off the edge of high platforms. Far better, and oh so wickedly cruel, is mind controlling a high level Hunter. You see, no one loves their pet like a Hunter, and they’re madly protective of their enslaved beast. So mind control the guy, and then turn him on his own critter. He has to stare in horror as his own hands slaughter the pet he loves so much, leaving him with a lot of awkward apologizing to do when it’s next revived.
