So whats everyone’s thoughts on the new teaser picture?

Definitely 3 different elements to the picture.
Top Left one looks like a ship or engine component to me. Not sure about the top right, other than it looks kinda like a reactor. Bottom one looks like the front of a building.

Now that I think about it, is it previewing the 3 fractals we should be getting? AR in top left, Reactor in top right, and MF in bottom picture?

Bottom: Molten Facility, Left: Aethernblade Retreat and Right: Thaumanova Reactor.

Its the fractals update

Only problem with the bottom pic, is it looks like storm clouds, not a rock ceiling

Isn’t that kind of what it looked like from the outside?

I mean, regardless, Aetherblade Retreat and the Molten Facility had really strong colour schemes and the bottom and left pics are precisely the same colours. That’s more where I’m coming from with my guess.

I’m almost 100% sure it’s fractals.

Hm. Reminds me of the Tricolor Key, so maybe the key isn’t quite as random as it at first appears?

It certainly looks like something fractal related. The timing will place it very close to the one-year anniversary of fractals, to boot.

They can add all the fractals they want but it will still be a waste of time if they do not improve the rewards.

RISK VS. REWARD. Fix it Anet. This Time vs. Reward kitten you have going on needs to stop.

Consider the new fire-touched (flame-touched?) husks in the Nightmare Tree. It could be a merging of different facilities. To me the bottom looked like the nightmare tower, but with molten roots or something.

Wow I couldnt agree more. There is very little to zero risk vs reward in the game and everything is time gated content.

Thaumanova fractal for sure
