The main reason for me getting Leadership is for getting enough ToHit to have the AoE holds' accuracy penalty at least partly negated.
Question: Is the penalty on the AoE holds ToHit penalty or Accuracy penalty?

It's an accuracy penalty (20%) which is really not that bad if you slot 2 Acc in it (and maybe pop a yellow). Given the recharge time on AoE holds I wouldn't take Leadership just to help with this but as Phil said, PBed Vengeance ftw!

On my /nrg dominator i slotted my aoe holds for 3 acc and used powerboost. I don't think i could justify the endurance drain from the leadership toggles except for the above mentioned RSF, which would likely be a very specific respec build.

I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old snows melt from every mountain-side,
And last year's leaves are smoke in every lane;
But last year's bitter loving must remain

Right now I've gotten my fifth Dominator over 20, and this time he's a Grav/Nrg. (level 23 at the moment) Any thoughts on how Leadership (Mainly Tactics&Vengeance) goes for Doms? I know the numbers and stuff but do you really see many of them?

Another interesting point about /Nrg, /Ice and Vengeance is that with Powerboost (which is available to both /Ice and /Nrg) many values (except +damage) gets boosted by 149% (at level 50, Dom numbers)
I also am going for Mace Mastery, but that's entirely on concept reasons and because I've already gone Mu Mastery and I'm for something different. PB'd up Scorpion Shield might help me in the alpha strikes when I miss someone.
To whom it may interest, the base values for Dominator leadership toggles & Vengeance are below: (Taken from CoD)
Maneuvers - 2.625% Def
Assault - 11.25% Dmg Buff
Tactics - 7.5% ToHit
Vengeance - 21.25% Def and 29.75% ToHit
Even when slotted, Tactics won't give much ToHit, but it is still helpful, and with Power Boost the effect is going to be improved by 149% (at level 50) so it can be sort of like a mini-Aim without as much ToHit and without the damage bonus.
Sure you could get a Thermal to buff you with Forge, but seems like not many Thermals are hot into buffing Doms because so many see only the +Dmg part of Forge, and ignore the +ToHit part. One even said that they rather buff the Mastermind pets than a Dom, because Doms do less damage than one of their pets. Sigh. And that is not true!
