Confusion warrior
People already tried it. The problem people are finding out is that confusion is only 1 condition that is easily cleared. I think that confusion on a warrior is a good source of damage that should complement a power based build. The problem is all of the weapon or utilities that do CC and can interrupt are not condition weapons. So you cannot build a condition warrior around the premise of confusion it wont work cuz the moment that confusion gets cleared if u are successfull at even applying it your dammage goes into the gutter and you have now blown all of your cc which is what u need in the 1st place as a warrior.
I think you could in theory make a condition warrior and use confusion as just another possible way of doing damage but you cant build around it. You biggger sources of damage are fire, torment and bleeding and poison if u play a asura or have it on weapon swap.

Sorry but it’s been done, and it’s terrible. It’s never going to be good unless ANet makes drastic changes.
Simply put, the access to confusion on a warrior is terrible.
First of all, it’s too circumstantial – you only get it on interrupts. Not even on disables, but on interrupts. Any CC you land has to interrupt something to land 4 stacks of confusion for 8 seconds. Too reliable and low access to be meaningful, even before the confusion nerf.
Second of all, warrior interrupts are on weapons that benefit nothing from condition damage – Hammer and mace are power weapons through and through. They benefit nothing from conditions. Shield is an “everything” weapon, but it’s a single interrupt that sacrifices the use of off hand sword, which is terribly powerful for condition builds – far more powerful than the far more conditional full potential 4 stacks of confusion every 25 seconds, assuming you land it as an interrupt every time.
In the end, if you’re doing a condition build, there are far better options for weapons and traits. It’s a trap trait.
Taobella look at this build, it’s similar to what you say
you are wrong rune set give 5 confusion and trait give +4 confusion = 9 on intrup. and i agree a build like this alone would probably not do very well if you had say a nerco with you probably combo nicely nerco could be throwing on his torment you could be building your bleeds confusion.
and to eriol thanks for showing me the video i just wanted to see what it would look like : ).
