This can also work but has the disadvantage of being an area effect
song, which means using it somewhere like Cazic Thule is asking for
every mob your party is fighting and half the mobs the parties around
you are fighting to all come attack you. :) I dont mind having one mob
come beat on me instead of the cleric, so the cleric can get off heal
spells on the real tanks, but attracting a gang isnt something I really
want to do.

Now Pixie Strike (formerly pixie chase) might work for that. It seems to
be sort of a targetted lullaby, but the few times I've used it I haven't
noticed if it cleared the hate list, in fact it didn't seem to be all
that useful at all. The few times it worked it kept one mob standing
around for about 10 seconds. If that's all it does, I dont see why you'd
use it instead of charm, which basically does the same thing with the
added bonus that you can have the mob attack it's friends for those 10
seconds.

Anyone found some use for Pixie Strike I may have missed?
