Mind-Control seems a bit strong and not fun to play against.

[R4ampage]

Loosing a third of your Army with 1 click (fought a high lvl stack with 2 Nyphs) seems a little bit much. I know it says it only has a 60% chance of failing but I have yet to see it fail once and by the time those 3 turns are over the rest of my army get's beaten to a pulp and those units that are released from Mind-control are also in a unfavorable position. (immediatly getting outflanked etc.)

Anyone got any Tips? Because trying to kill the Mind-controling units is near impossible with not only their units but also my mind-controlled units in the way. Is Save scumming the trick? Hoping the 60% doesn't go through? I'm a bit at a loss. :/

This is a common complaint, it seems. Mind Control may be bugged to be 100 percent, according to several claims; also it should really be a touch ability, not a ranged ability.

Both of you might need to lookup what you learned in math classes about probability and luck...

I have encountered mind control twice and used several times. 60% chance seems correct as it will not trigger always but not 50:50 either.

Alright no need for the sass, I know how it should work but it seems to be not working correctly for everyone.

Also even if it would work correctly I still don't think it would be a fun mechanic because of how easy it is to use/pull off without like any risk at all while also being incredibly powerful.

Like even if it fails it still makes the Target Distracted which is super strong as well.

The overhaul mod in development (reforged?) is going to try and burg magic accuracy by 20%

Can't you just remove it like any other status effect?

[NexionSE of the Cm.G.]

or use things with high resist or mindcontrol/status immune, havent encountered many of them tbh so must be quite rare

in previus games most but one dominate was melee or 2 range skill where you also had to hammer the resists and moral down to have it even land at a 25% rate on most units over tire 1

I mean I also asked for Tips yeah. If there is a way to remove Status effects easily please tell me because as far as I can tell none of my Units have that ability. :(
