[QUOTE="DracoSuave, post: 5466700, member: 71571"] Do bear in mind, in this case, CS has forgotten SA explicitly hits enemies. Moreover, they've actually answered your Beguiling Strands question: 'While you are dominated your allies are still your allies so the power used to grant combat advantage can't state it only works again enemies' Beguiling Strands is a power that only works against enemies. And saying it's against 'the spirit of the law' when they actually put out an errata stating 'No, there is no switch in enemy/ally status' to cover this EXACT question which came up time and time again is... kinda disingenuous. They took the time to figure out the 'spirit of the law' and they've put their foot down in print. The Rules as Intended are VERY clear: They intend for status to not change. Otherwise, they'd have errata'd that status DOES change. Moreover, the enemy is not in your head controlling your actions. He is controlling one [b]single[/b] action, and everything outside the perview that action that you're still able to do is still 100% under your control. [b]Dominated does not mean the same thing in 4e as in 3e.[/b] [/QUOTE]
