    For those of you who wanted confuse in the game we have it.

    Turn 8 Brain jack.

    Main tank gets brain jacked and in THEORY they are suppose to swap with the non brain jacked tank. I think a lot of people do the one tank method that completely bypasses it.

    Its a pretty funny mechanic particulary when a dps who is targeted by the brain jacked tank runs away from him, you see this funny chase scene. Of course it also means your probably going to wipe when the avatar targets the main tank with its cleave attack.

    It would be a nice challenge if they tweaked this a bit and added the similar kind of confusion we had in FFXI called "charm". Rather than be a mindless zombie, you'd be completely controlled by the boss to assist with attacking the rest of the party. Imagine how scary it would be if your burst DPS jobs turned against you and started using heavy nukes.

    If they included charm it would be interesting if they could program it so that the AI could gather data on your rotation-- and then mimic a similar rotation against a random (non-tank) party member.

    An alternative to charm could be something like "clones" that mimic your most used actions and gear. I think FFXI had something like that in the final boss fight to one of the add-ons (A crystalline prophecy?) and it wasn't the most sophisticated AI, but still a cool concept.
