    I would like to suggest to add a message when you get confused, same as the grey messages that appear for other debuffs like seduce/zombify/stun/seal/weakness/darkness, like this one:

    upload_2022-11-27_19-48-47.png

    For some bosses like PB, it can be a good QoL change since you basically can't see your character, making it hard to move both after getting confused and at the end of the debuff. It also can make you touch PB body when you actually were trying to move to get away, but it's just hard to see when there are a lot of attackers on the same place of you spamming skills with flashy NX and F/P summons.

    And also I would like to ask if there's a possibility of making all debuffs appear like a buff icon in any part of the screen, so you could see when it's close to end. It's also gonna be good change, but maybe harder to implement, specially to prepare Hero's Will when you're seduced or to prepare to move when the confusion is about to end.

    That's it, bye ^__^

    Although I'd like to disagree with this, I really can't think of a reason why confusion doesn't show a message yet all others do. I can't see it affecting too much since, for me, what hurts the most is when it goes away.

    As for a timer or an icon showing it's running away, seems too easy.

    At least you could start counting seconds after you see the message.
    And yeah I also tought that an icon would gonna make things too easy, but idk. I feel like the game could be better made, like putting your character in front of the others, and that wouldn't be a problem.

    The grey message suggestion has been accepted. For consistency with all the other debuffs, we will be adding one to Slow aswell.

    This will go live for Christmas patch.
    We can't add debuff icons, not yet atleast, so that part of suggestion is not accepted.

    Thanks!

    could you at least make the timer in boss maps translucent or overlay buffs on top of timer before we get more buffs icons spam?

    When we ever get to point of adding debuff icons, I highly doubt we'll make them in the same row as normal buffs. That would be confusing as heck.
