This guide has some great tactic suggestions for using confusion! Thank you!
I did have a question about the section below. With my level 24 illusion controller, deceived sorcerers would continue to heal other villains. Does confuse work differently in this aspect too?

- Confuse defender-oriented mobs first: if given the option, put the highest priority on defender-oriented mobs (Tsoo Sorcerors, Shamans, etc.). Having them switch sides with their buffs/debuffs will often be a real tide-turner in the battle. Other mobs also have interesting 'side benefits'. Here's a quick list of some of the best mobs to confuse for 'side benefits':
Embalmed Vahz - A confused Embalmed will blow up and damage the vahz around them while not damaging you or your allies.
Soul Mages - When below 1/4 health, they will blow up damaging the CoT around them, but not you or your allies.
Sorcs, Medics, Shaman and other Buffers - Will buff you and your team rather than their team.
Communication Officers, Devoured and other Summoners, including portals - All summoned villians will arrive confused until the initial confuse on the summoner wears off.
Proximity-oriented bombs - Will detonate themselves when they're confused.
