Breathes confusion gas in a cone.

Cone length: (level based) tiles
Cone angle: (level based) degrees
Cooldown: 15 rounds

Confusing Breath is a mutation which fires confusion gas into a large cone-shaped area. This mutation is the signature ability of mazebeards. The confusion gas has a gas density of 80. Additionally, creatures with this mutation are immune to confusion.[1]

This mutation may also be obtained as a cooking effect when cooking with confusion gas-breathing ingredients.

Ingredients cooked with Effect Cone Characteristics
mazebeard gland paste Level 5 Confusing Breath 30° cone, 9 tiles long
concentrated mazebeard gland paste Level 10 Confusing Breath 40° cone, 14 tiles long
mazebeard gland paste + concentrated mazebeard gland paste Level 15 Confusing Breath 50° cone, 19 tiles long

The following formulas are used to determine breath cone characteristics based on mutation level.[2][3]
