Guild Wars 2

I was in Sparkfly Fen, chopping down some trees with my ranger that has superior runes of perplexity. A basilisk nearby interrupted me with its laserbeam attack that turns you into a stone, and I noticed the 6th bonus of the rune, 5 stacks of confusion on interrupt, proc’d on myself. I tried being interrupted while wearing different armor and there was no confusion proc so quite sure it’s from the runes.

pretty sure basilisks laser attacks gives you confusion

No, Basilisks only inflict Petrified and Immobilized.

According to the wiki, there are certain traits can bug when you are hit by the basilisk’s beam causing you do apply that damage to yourself. I don’t know if it’s the same as your issue here, but it could be.

“Should your character have Traits equipped that refer to stunning or interrupting they’ll be triggered by the Petrifying Beam. For example: Chaotic Interruption or Distracting Strikes both will work against you.”

Ah I see, that sounds more likely rather than the runes. Thanks for the info.
