AuthorQuestion, Confusion magic?
How does the spell work, for example if 70 efk are confused 70% does their hit with meele get weaker?
Their retaliation will be 70% weaker. The same works also for shooters normal attack.
what about melee normal atk?
normal melee attacks aren't affeckted by confusion.
The description of this spell is very bad.
Because even when you have those monster quests (one large unit) their damage gets reduced when they got confusion =/
yes and even normal stacks get dmg reduction
Then is the melee damage only reduced for those monsters or also for normal stacks (hunt, pvp)?

The numbers below are only the melee attacks from the bowmen monster

63 damage - 1st attack
38 damage - 1st retaliation
82 damage - 2nd attack
33 damage - 2nd retaliation
64 damage - 3rd attack
32 damage - 3rd retaliation
72 damage - 4th attack
36 damage - 4th retaliation
69 damage - 5th attack
30 damage - 5th retaliation
69 damage - 6th attack

So their retaliation is always lower than their attack (when its their turn).
However the spell description says Part of the stack's creatures do not retaliate or shoot.
So with 1 unit, their retaliation damage is still reduced ;)
Confusion
The spell makes target stack of enemy creatures forget what they are doing on the battlefield. Part of the stack's creatures do not retaliate or shoot. The spell does not affect Undead, Elemental and Mechanical creatures.
Stack's ranged and retaliation damage is reduced by an amount depending on the caster's Darkness magic talent level.
Duration spell**.

Besides the unclear area that Sven91 mentioned, the grey part is very explanatory, only ranged and retaliation damage is reduced, "normal melee damage attack" is neither of those. It works on any stack in any battle unless stack has immune to mind control or similars.
well, only undead immune to this spell. for the rest, it reduce target range dmg and target retalation dmg.

yet, additional effect: it confuse player whoever try to use this spell LOL

some people had ask this same question again and again. i got some in PM too ;p

i just wonder how it confuse player's mind
The only retaliation in the Confusion description refers to a ranged one...ie mistress or succubi shooting back after being hit by another ranged unit.

It has no effect on a melee retal of any stack.

From what our good Sven91 said and proved, the melee retal is also affected.
11>

it did affect all retaliation dmg on both melee and range.
yes and affects necros too
for MyDoom:
Wrong.

Undead:
This creature is unaffected by morale, poisoning, blinding or mind-affecting magic.
ah than i had the wrong impression srry cu skels are range but skels get weakend
