Like the Radar tree, weapon damage increases quadratically when players are stacked. Its damage formula on stacked players is the same as the one for the Radar tree: d = bt2, where d is total damage, b is base damage, and t is the number of players stacked on top of one another.
While the targets' turrets will be facing up, their shot alignment will be returned to their previous shot once the whole Confuser is done.
