NotesEdit

• Its debuff has no classification, hence it cannot be dispelled.
• When attacking a Druid with Mind Flay, shapeshifting cancels it.
• Similarly, if the target uses a PvP trinket, it removes Mind Flay, due to the snare.
• Mind Flay does additional threat. This is most likely due to its snare.
• This spell is popularly referred to as the "face melter" due to the ray that usually targets the opponent's face.
