Guild Wars 2

Just wondering but will very hit of 100blade proc confusion dmg?

Just tested it today. Sadly it’s a no.

thx thats good to know

just the 1st hit. every subsequent hit after that the warrior just lols. if you’re not dead and try to run he will use whirlwind so expect that. if you manage to counter the whirlwind and launch an attack he will swap and use shield stance then eviscerate you.

It should that would be a beautiful site.

IIRC F3 will end their little fairy dance.

Blurred Frenzy and Pistol whip both proc 4 ticks of retaliation and 4 ticks of confusion by the way.
Last that I tested atleast, which was last month.

Confusion doesn’t tick per attack, it ticks per skill use, so only the initial use of any skill with do it.

Retaliation on the other hand can be a beautiful thing if you can tank it

this might be a question for another thread but is confusion affected by power, precision or both?

i am just trying out a few confusion builds to play around with and the gear question seems to be on everyones mind. will a glamour/confusion build benefit more from the carrion gear or the cursed shore stuff?

will power make confusion hit harder per stack or can confusion crit from precision?

if its neither, they need to make condition, toughness, vitality gear imo

Power is for direct damage, crit boosting those hits. Hover your mouse over your “Attack” and you’ll see you have a condition damage line. Where all the sums come from I don’t know (been trying to figure it out), but gear with CD on it is the obvious one. There’s a trait that grants +50 malice (CD) when weilding a sceptre. Also food, and the rune of corruption that stacks CD on kills. There’s also a rune set that will give you +5% of your toughness as CD (also a trait for this).

oh, might also increases CD.

Oh, and for mesmers the Illusions trait line increases CD by +10 points per trait point spent.

so power and precision dont affect a pure CD build at all?

No, power/precision are for direct damage. Wiki is your friend

I should add though, there are things that apply conditions upon critting, so yes precision/crit chance is important depending on your build. That’s why you get gear that’s precision/toughness/condition damage
