Confusion + Slow

Thanks for your feedback – I actually am playing with an interrupt build and was running into that same question, how to fit chronomancer in. While good for soloing, it does seem like in small parties or random world content there is too high of a chance that someone else will be casting slow/stun/knockdown/chill etc that will both decrease confusion ticks and make it harder to interrupt (if they’re already stunned) – too much potential for being kitten by things that are supposed to be helpful. I think I’ll opt for more guaranteed damage with a sword/chrono build, especially since using wells will also benefit the melee ranged sword phantasm, and then switch to condis on occasion for fun or in certain situations. Having phantasms with alacrity could be fun too – maybe with the pistol! Looking forward to trying all of this out with the new content.

What’s the community’s thoughts on confusion builds post expansion? Since it’s designed to hurt an enemy the more often they attack, won’t applying slow on the target decrease your damage, because they’re attacking less frequently? In addition to the enemy being otherwise crowd controlled by other players (or my interrupts) and also not being able to attack and the introduction of resistance, I’m starting to become hesitant to mess with a confusion build too much because of all of the potential for confusion do to too little damage compared to other conditions, which are not affected by the enemy’s actions. Unfortunate, because it’s also one of my favorite play styles!

I recently made a full set of exotic armor and weapons for my new level 80. I made them on different characters who already had the professions leveled. I also purchased and upgraded the items with sigils and runes, and got the message “Upgrading an item will make it account bound to you”. However, after upgrading the items and putting them in my bank for my other character to use (note: the items have never been equipped by any character), the items were now soulbound to the characters who upgraded them and unable to be used on the character that I made them for. Including screenshots of the message (one of the items I made had yet to be upgraded)
