Oh I agree. Just pointing out that AoE confuses can make the mobs self herding, which in some situations can be better than opening with an AoE hold.

With enough recharge and confuse duration, Seeds can be perma self stacked (that's one of the tricks my Plant/TA uses). I'll admit that an AoE confuse followed up immediately with a single target confuse on a boss is nice but with the other tools at a controller's disposal is hardly a game maker or breaker.
To be fair, Mind's game is really more like "AoE confuse from the shadows followed by unlimited single target Confuse with Contagious Confusion splash, stacked as many times as you desire before even taking an opening shot." Plant can run in with Seeds, but that's also calling an opener. Mind can blanket the enemies with Confusion, and then follow up with whatever opener it wants. Both are incredibly awesome options, of course.
