Subjugate Demon is a warlock spell which allows the caster to temporarily gain control of a demon type creature. The spell can be used to control various mobs. Only one demon can be controlled at any one time.

Tips

In the TCG.

The demon can be released from the warlock's control by right clicking on its character portrait and clicking "Dismiss". Note this just frees it: it does not 'de-summon' it like other warlock minions. Like [Mind Control], subjugating generates a large amount of aggro towards the caster - upon release it will likely attack its previous controller.

In instance situations, it's considered good etiquette to release your subjugated demon between fights, warning your party first of course. This will prevent it from freeing itself during the next fight and becoming an add.

A good way to get rid of a subjugated demon is to order it to stay, then run away. The demon will be dismissed but you will be far enough from it for it to simply despawn without attacking you. Another way is to dismiss it, [Banish] it, and then run away.
