    I am mind controlling things that have a red circle marker around them that should not be mind-controlled. A few examples:
    • Contenders in the New Moon map
    • Green Thumb witches in the New Moon map
    • Shadalquians (sp?!) in the Great Desert
    Any other SWs report similar issues?

    I tested as well (only in the desert map) and I see what you are saying. It is like this.

    A few releases back, the official minibosses (the ones that count as minibosses for daily) had a red circle under them and with 3 lines going from the edge of the circle to the center. They have 100% chance to drop pink item on mode1 2 3

    And then there were other type of special mobs (I think special quest mobs) which had just a red circle under them, but no extra lines. They didn't count for daily. These ones are the special mobs up the stairs, on the podiums in the desert. They usually drop green item, just randomly drop blue and pink item, like any normal mob.

    A few releases back they changed the circle and now all the special mobs have exactly the same circle with lines under them, so you cannot visually make a difference. However, they still act differently. The second type of special minibosses still don't count for daily, still drop greens, can be mind-controlled. The first type cannot. Anyways, now both types looks exactly the same, which is confusing.

    The bug is not the mind-control, but the change for the circle they added under those pseudo-minibosses. I bet you mind controlled one of those Shadalquians up on the podiums and not the real minibosses.

    Yes, it seems they changed the type of those knights in m2. Now they have a simple red circle under them and they act like some special mobs you have to kill to do a quest, but not like minibosses. They can be now mind controlled.

    Definitely looks like a change the devs fail to announce to the community.

    Since it wasn't announced, I'm assuming it's just another bug to report. It's both annoying and amusing when you mind control something you were not expecting to be mind-controlled. xD
