Guild Wars 2

Any thoughts on the confusion nerf from people who run the TK-Pistol-Bomb combo? Will you stay with the build or move to something else?

Roaming 1v1 I don’t feel as bad when I get the jump on a GC, I’m okay with it so far, it was pretty OP against people who were GC’s or didn’t pay attention to their conditions.

In bigger fights the confusion bomb doesn’t seem worth it to drop in the middle of a fight. Before I would try to duck in and out while dropping confusion bombs, but now with the reduced damage the risk doesn’t seem worth it.

Confusion is still powerful, but it might not be a good idea to completely focus on it. The damage output that Confusion abilities can still be far above what other skills can do. Keep in mind that it was still pretty good in sPvP, which is where the damage level is now at.

Good point, focusing just on confusion is probably not viable now in WvW.

The Bomb Kit in the confusion build was the only thing that made feel somewhat useful in zerg fights when we stack and charge in. I’ll miss all those big pink numbers.

In 1v1 fights 7-12 stacks of confusion still hurts when it’s possible to get the combo off.
