Hey,

Either I'm misunderstanding what confuse poison does or it isn't working - not sure which.

When you hit someone with confuse poison from poison darts, my understanding is it can make them attack someone else. Example, if there are 5 people in the room and they cast a spell, it would have a random 1:5 chance of hitting any of those people.

This doesn't appear to be the case, so I'm not entirely sure what this skill does. Is it broken? Is it more like befuddle where it slows them down? Does it only last 0 hours? It appears to have no effect at all right now.

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to bump but I'd really like to know what this does.

Your understanding is correct, with the caveat that the confused person can only target people he can normally target (for example, can see them, etc). Also confused people can always target themselves.

If you really think it's not working can you post a log on the bug board?

In my example (which I didn't save the log), I confused a conjurer with an archon and an elemental and let them lash at me. They hit me 100% of the time.

Two questions :

1) Does confuse get healed by archons?
2) Do they have to pass a target to the skill? IE lash vs lash $target?

I'm having a feeling the issue is that the confuse gets healed away.

Lash doesn't require a target, as long as they are fighting someone, so no, it would not be affected by confuse. In this case you'd need to flee out of combat and then let them attack first (assuming they don't autoassist their tracking mobs?) and hope they hit one of their mobs instead of you.

Awesome, thank you very much for the info.

Actually a log on the bug board showed me there was some problems with this and sure enough both confuse and vertigo were completely broken... they'll be fixed in the next reboot.
