As far as I'm concerned, the Intellect Devourer and its Body Thief ability should've had an asterisk too. And I said as much at the time.



Prior bad decisions doesn't mean we should double down on ignoring problematic abilities.


Enthrall requires a helluva lot of DM adjudication. And without a reasonable functional and favorable set of rulings, you're boned and nigh useless, but you can also end up with essentially having a free cohort+ from your very first level. And that's not counting the ability to spam charm effects to force repeated saves in the hopes of your target failing normally or getting a natural 1.
