Your own friends would not behave out of the ordinary, but would discourage you from attacking this guy who couldn't possibly be a vampire.
I have no problems with the changes to the spells. I think its far more fun in combat to have effects that don't last all day. Combat doesn't last all day, so why should an offensive spell?
And its not like the changes to the player-version of the Charm spell make it completely useless. That wasn't the point. Yes, monsters behave by different rules than players. That has always been the case.
