Crest of rabid :
+20 condition
+14 toughness
+14 precision

(1) +24 condition damage
(2) +15 toughness
(3) +55 condition
(4) +35 toughness
(5) +100 condition
(6) +5% toughness become condition

Assume have 2k toughness.

(6)+100 condition damage

Depends on build and gear. If you are running a condi warrior you might check out Runes of Perplexity. Couple that with shield, bull’s charge, stomp, mace, or hammer and you might have some decent interrupts available to stack quick confusion.

It’s a gimmicky rune and needs an internal cd but you can try it out. Undead is pretty solid though if you run high toughness.

Why an internal cooldown? Adding one would mean that you’d limit the number of stacks of confusion you can place on the opponent, since the stacks already set would wear out before you can add more.

Also, AIUI, there already is an indirect cooldown. Since they place stacks on interrupt (and not on critical chance), the runes end up having the mixed cooldown of the skills which can be used to interrupt. Suppose you use 3 skills to interrupt. The opponent only needs one cleanse to move on (meaning you did get your interrupt, which is not a given), and you remain 3 skills down on your side for a while, during which the rune cannot be triggered. That, in effect, is a cooldown.

Currently, it’s stronger than ANY other confusion applying skill in the game.

Pretty much what KUTM said. I have come across thieves who abuse the fact there is no icd on the confusion when interrupted portion watching them easily stack 15-20+ stacks of confusion very quickly.

I have also seen a warrior do the same. He was able to line up his interrupts perfectly and GG. Watch the player realize he was killing himself.

Watch Joe’s video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV2iiFIMBdg

About 8 mins in he fights a mesmer who he just wrecks because he built high bleed tickets and almost 20 stacks of confusion. That mesmer almost instagibs himself for 4300 dmg an action because of it.

The point being if we are allowed to stack that much confusion so fast there needs to be an icd on the interrupt part. Thieves just spam headshot while you try to auto attack them and they just backpedal till you die.
