1) We added a new skill called Bully at level 36. Essentially, while it's active (works along the lines of Berserk or Warcry), the orc is being as intimidating as possible, and they'll perform much better in combat vs. significantly weaker foes. Also, weak foes that would otherwise attack the orc might have second thoughts. (Assuming they can think.)
One scenario where this is useful is cabal raiding, but dealing with all the lower-level stuff that attacks you while (WANTED) as well as garden-variety attack-anything NPCs is also useful. Probably also handy for certain regearing steps.
2) We developed some good internal tools for assessing what Enslave could do, and decided that (particularly at the high end), it didn't necessarily have the NPCs in place to make it as useful as intended. We added a few races to it, relaxed the level requirement a bit if the NPC didn't have exceptional special abilities, and (thanks to Eshval) began sprinkling some higher-end Enslave-able NPCs into appropriate areas.
