I mean seriously -_- I just want to MC trash... just... MC...Trash...
    MC used to be very viable in pvp (especially when used on someone wielding the sulfuras), now its more or less used to MC people off ledges in BGs.

    MS still reduces aggro range pretty well i just dont think either last long enough on the target anymore :/

    MC is still very viable in Arenas as well. When attempting to force a kill, stacking CC followed by MC is a pretty solid way to win.

    I don't know what you're talking about OP, I use Mind Control and Mind Soothe ALL OF THE TIME. MC for 5mans and random pvp, But use Mind Soothe all the time to make it easier to just skip trash. (for example, allowing the whole raid to go from Alysrazor to Baleroc without fighting any trash).

    I can't really think of any of the priest spells that I don't use at least multiple times every week, with the exception of Shackle undead... even then I use it in ZA when the random helper mob is a ghost.

    However I agree that all raid trash being immune to MC now is stupid and not fun I could see making the first few packs immune to keep people from Duo farming trash like they did at the beginning of BoT... but why not just limit it to the first pack/room/etc? Huge nerf to /fun

    As for Mind Soothe not lasting long enough... 15 seconds isn't long enough? The range reduction is HUGE, it works almost as well as stealth (for example you can get close enough to quest items/herbs/etc that a mob is standing on top of w/o aggroing) AND it can be applied to multiple targets... and if 15s isn't enough just, uh, er, recast it? :P

    I really loved the Instructor fight in Naxx because I got to use MC and tank Was good times... though it sucked for guilds that didn't have reliable priests.

    Honestly though I don't think we have any spells that aren't useful in some aspect or another of the game.
