Please list your debuff faves and not so much faves lol.
discuss why and what you did to conquer this.
this is meant to help players as they ascend in the ranks

least favorite: 33 outflanked, due to current possible bug. ouchies. dredge took 8 days
the first room was a huge problem. 3 people ended up rage switching characters until we got a stealthy enough group. 2 guards 3 thieves. just for that room. brutal

favorite: 39 enemies explode causing a pretty severe unblockable knockdown. idk why but this made me lol my way through. we wiped 1 time due to this and had to change tactic slightly on giant. but otherwise went as usual. surprisingly nobody fell off giant due to this. mind blown.

My least favourite are 40 and 50, agonizing trip.
Theyre basically a gear check, and if you dont meet the requirements you take more damage from passive agony than from enemies :P

My favourite iiiisssss… I dunno, actually.

Anti elitism is the easiest. I never use my elite anyway :P

so far “Outflanked” was the hardest, as some enemies could oneshoot even heavily armored party members with a big HP pool, which sometimes resulted in an entire party getting wiped.

“Impaired Immunity” wasn’t so hard to pass, as most party members naturally had some condition removals which helped minimize our trouble.

but i’m not really an expert in high level fractals and am going to pass lvl 34 – “Fleeting Precision” – for the first time tonight. can someone tell me if the critical chance reduction on this level is significant or not? i mean, if i have a 50% critical chance, how will it be reduced once i enter the fractal? will it be like 40% or… 0%? :D

39 is ruined by the fact that you cant dodge or block the explosions. It was really frustrating on cliffside because theres no way you can get away from the corpses in time all the time when trying to destroy those seals. If it was dodgable id say it would be a pretty good instability.

ive done a 34, 3 or 4 times now. i dont know the exact % but its nothing to worry about. 34 is a great level to go from 30-34 on.

Yep, I’ve heard that’s 25% crit chance reduction. A walk in the park after clearing 33 with the combo Dredge/Mai Trin AKA “everything one shots, namaste and good luck”.

I’m guessing it depends what fractals you get. My first instability was the 31 Mossman in the underwater fractals and he was essentially taking people down with multiple 5k hit dart attacks from nowhere. It was not fun and it made me wonder if I was ever going to bother with fractals again. As soon as we were onto the land fractals he was really easy to kite and dodge.

I really enjoyed the one where crits damaged you. Gave me an excuse to change to an old condition build so I didn’t melt every time I clicked Pistol Whip once.
