    This 6th level spell lets you trigger a self-centerd spell at a determined condition.
    One possibility is: when helpless (stunned, dominated, confused, etc.).

    So I pulled of a Contingency with Haer-Dalis:
    Dispell Magic when helpless.

    The problem is, that it will never trigger despite him being confused or dominated.

    Is this a bug, or could my game be messed up?
    Anyone tested this as well?

    As of now I can't fire another Contingency as long as this is on, and since it won't trigger,
    that's pretty annoying

    I too seem to recall Contingency (erroneously) not counting Confused or Dominated as being Helpless. However, you can dispel your Contingency: at the bottom of your Spellbook page there is a button that says "Contingency" - clicking it will display your current Contingency setup and give you an option to dispel it.

    thanks for the help.
    At least I can dispell it.

    But gone is my glorious idea of an automatic domination/confusion counter ^^.
