Avoiding confusion is critical in certain portions of the game. Confusion caused by enemies like golden eyes and swamp drakes can be extremely fatal if it hits at the wrong time; it may be worth avoiding branches they can be found in until you find a source of clarity. Mummies in particular should try to acquire clarity, as they are the only species incapable of quaffing a potion of curing to remove confusion.
