Honestly, this is a pretty bad build no matter where you look at it.
Firstly, divinity runes are pretty bad now. They just don’t give a whole lot of stats, so not worth it.
Blinding befuddlement is a bad trait. It used to be good, then they slapped with an icd, and now it’s bad. In this build, you don’t actually have a ton of access to blind, making it an even worse choice.
You’ve got confusing combatants, but this is very much a shatter build. That’s not going to do a whole lot.
Signet of the ether is never a good choice in a build intended for non-PvE, and it’s particularly bad in this build, since you’re not using the active for any reason.
Signet of midnight is really just all around bad. I believe you took it as a source of blind in this build, but since blinding befuddlement is also bad, that just makes signet of midnight even worse. It’s really something that nobody should ever put on their bar except in the most oddly specific of situations.
Lastly, this is a hybrid build, but it doesn’t hybrid very well. You have access to only 2 real conditions: torment and confusion. Mesmers, contrary to popular belief, aren’t actually good at applying confusion. Your stacks have low duration, and you can’t stack it effectively. Your other condition is torment, but that’s also incredibly low duration and stacks. Maim is just a non-viable trait unfortunately, despite it being fun. On the power side, you have…not much. 1470 power is hardly enough to tickle most people, particularly when you remember that you only have 25% crit damage.
Overall, this is a build that will deal less damage than either a full power build or a full condition build, and is almost as squishy as a full power build. It’s not good.
