Fractals are too long
Apart from Dredge – they are not. Every other fractal can be done within 15 ( 30 on higher levels ) minutes. Been there, done that. If ur taking too long then either you or your team are not good enough. For example in Asura fractal you can have a guardian with shield of avanger, wall of reflect and stand your ground, and go through harpies in no time, or you can fall down every time and finish it after an hour +. In cliffside you can use your 40 seconds of “hammer time” and break both arm seals (3rd lvl are arms, right?) or you can break just one, drop it and wait couple of seconds for some1 to pick it up because no1 likes the responsibility.
If everyone in my team played EXACTLY like me I’m CERTAIN that we would finish every run in no time.
