Like the topic says, I’m torn between two builds. I want to pick a build I can use effectively both in pve and wvw.

The first one I guess is a more typical glamour build, relying on stacking confusion and conditions and keeping them up there.

This one has more practical uses in wvw than the previous build, but then I realized I can run the first build too and since portal also counts as a glamour, I can really play around with it with some shenanigans, but I’m really torn as to which one I should pick. I also don’t know if I should switch to focus instead since you don’t really need another confusion phantasm in the first build.. please help?

Confusion stacking builds aren’t really that good in PvE, but in WvW they can cause much butthurt to the enemy team. This is especially true if you’re causing it through AoE glamours and through Cry of Frustration. Pops that Confusion on LOTS of people all at once.

For PvE, you might want to retrait for other conditions such as bleeding.
