I was wondering if anyone had any links or any suggestions on building a Wizard that relies on mind control, or dominating others?

Sorcerer may do this better, as they arn't a huge number of Mind Controlling spells and the Cha will help your face skills (Diplomacy, Bluff, Intimidate, etc)

The Mindbender Prestige Class from Complete Arcane is a good one level dip for Telepathy.

psion does it better with thrallherd

even a cleric can do it well with monstrous thrall from spell compendium

I don't know, it's kind of hard to compete against Programed Amnesia. No HD limit and can't be dispelled.

Wasn't this spell nerfed hard?

To the OP: You'll want to look up the enchanter's handbook.

Alternately, grab Magic Jar and pump it as high as you can. Arcane Thesis and all that- take over any body you feel like.

Sorry I didn't see this before to respond to...

I don't know, it's kind of hard to compete against Programed Amnesia. No HD limit and can't be dispelled.

Thematically it's nice to have 2 permanent slaves. That's mind control. Programmed Amnesia doesn't act like dominate though... *shrug* personal preference I guess

I haven't seen any nerf for it, and I just checked the errata. Still says permanent duration, so it still rocks.
