How do I get a sticky controller to drive a cluster on a bound mesh without cycle issues?

[Juan Tigreros]

Hi all!

I have a situation where I need to have a controller on a surface that is being deformed with a blend shape. This controller would need to drive a cluster that is on said mesh. However, when i parent the cluster to the controller, i get an offset and a cycle error. Google has not yield any good solutions yet. any thoughts? 

Thanks in advance! :)
