This is probably the single most dangerous spell in the game. The only defense against it is the Potion of Clarity, which is very rare. One casting of Confusion will probably render at least half your party useless, and they may even attack other party members. This is particularly notable in The Black Pits, when you fight a party with two spellcasters, who are immune to your attacks, but will destroy your party with a single Confusion spell. Once you've been hit by Confusion, pretty much the only thing you can do is quit the fight and restart it, and hope you'll do better next time.
