Guild Wars 2

do you think it would have been nerfed the way it was considering everybody’s condi conscious and runs extreme condi cleanse now?

i wasn’t playing during beta weekends but why was confusion even nerfed in spvp? were ppl qq’ing or anet decided to nerf it by themselves?

Confusion has always sucked in PvP but suffered an additional nerf when blinding befuddlement was nerfed via ICD

In the beginning all confusion was lame, and people across all three game modes lamented.

Then the devs said “Let there be confusion!” And “PvE” got the damage increase. In those days there was no separation between PvE and WvW, and so the people rejoiced across both game modes as confusion became a force to be reckoned with (ok, maybe not in PvE, but that’s another story).

Then the people in WvW cried, and the devs heard (got sick of) their cries. The devs separated PvE from WvW for balancing issues, and thus confusion was nerfed to once again suck in all PvP game modes.

So in short, sPvP was never buffed nor nerfed. It has always been as it is now.
