Can we please have old fractals back?
Leave the new fractals sure.
Leave the way agony resist on armour is, gives us progression. But back to 55ar= up to level 49 fractal.
Give us back lvl 50+ and shift instabilities to there.
Keep your gold reward, we can do shorter dungeons for that amount.
Give me back my karma and decent chance of fractal weapon back, I’ve had 0 in the 6 30+ runs I’ve done, which btw are taking longer on average now.
Give me back old bugs, it was at least bearable, ill deal with the stupid harpies Idc just unfix dredge (good deal if you ask me!)

If you won’t do this, just do a patch roll back. You’ve broken spirits with this one.
I for one don’t look forward to logging in and doing multiple runs, I dreadge to think which fractal is next and how long I’ll be stuck in a run for.

Or put the old version back so I can choose to play it.
Sincerely,
AmIalonehere?

Speak for yourself. I got a Fractal Longbow and a Fractal Dagger in the past two days.

i got shortbow but that’s it
drop chance for weapons so bad after reset

*Imagines 10 people looking all around the room at each other asking themselves “who really is in charge around here”…. hmmm well I am back from lunch gonna tinker on the side project healthcare.govemt"

Took me 3 months of trying to get my fractal mace. Three characters doing 28 and 30 dailies. In the meantime I got TWO other weapon drops. Speargun and a shield.

6 30+ dailies isn’t squat.

We’re talking post patch.
I have over 20 weapons from pre patch.
Pre patch I was getting weapons 50% of the time.
Investing in 1 hour + per run in a completely updated multi dungeon run with even LESS rewards now is utter bullkitten.

50% of the time weapons pre-patch is bogus. What you’re saying is that you’ve only done around 40 runs pre-patch to get those 20 weapons. Well, friend, I’ve done quite a bit more than that. About 7 times that in fact, and I have:
2x shields
2x scepters
greatsword
hammer
mace
spear
speargun
axe
shortbow
Staff
Rifle
Warhorn

7+ times your total, half your weapons.

I was talking about pre-patch. I’ve done maybe 4 runs post-patch, and it feels exactly like pre-patch, in that much more often than not, I get a crappy ring or nothing at all. 6 runs post-patch is not enough to claim that drop rate has changed. Methinks you were expecting the drop rates to be drastically increased. You’re expectedly disappointed.

Ok, 3 months is bogus.
If 30 is the old 50 as they claimed drop rates should be better yes.
Across the board players are reporting worse drops so no, I should have and did expect better.
Out of those 6 runs I received no ring, no weapon, no box.
So in reality I get less karma now and 1 gold more for 45+mins extra work than what I could’ve got elswhere.

3 months is not bogus. I also said that I got two other weapons in the meantime, but I was actively trying for that particular weapon for 3 months. So, you can think once a month with 6 runs per day with a chance of a weapon drop. Granted, these are the two lower chance tiers I’m talking about.

Yes, drops may be worse in general, but your claim of 50% drop rate is ridiculously overblown. 6 runs post-patch without anything more than a pristine relic and some empyrial shards is not enough to complain about.

the reward/time is really bad.
playing on 30-50 means playing with bad players (before patch playing 50+ you mostly got good players)

So now i have to level to 50 again. but because of bad players each run takes longer then a 70+ run pre patch.

But yeah, now i get a “better” reward… that is still kitten compared to normal dungeons or champion farm… And i have to do something i allready did in the past because anet took away my progress…

Even with the mistlock abilies the fractals are lvl 30-50 …. not that hard… did 79 runs alot just for fun… even done naked 79 runs that is way harder then the new fractals … A BIG JOKE

Here is the link to LOD research with level 48 runs returning a 46% fractal drop.
So I kitten all over your BS calling.
With level 50’s being stated by anet as being the new level 30 you can safely say a 46% rounded up is at LEAST what I expected. with my results and others results, nothing here is overblown.
You statistic doesn’t make mine bullkitten nor does it make the average bullkitten.

I can honestly say I’m not that big a fan of all the fractals changes either. So much of it has become a nuisance.
