Guild Wars 2

Just sayin’. I keep rotating between groups where people disc, I disc or bluescreen, and people just leaving inbetween fractal parts.
Somehow many people seem to think it’s OK to just leave after part 1 or 2 of a run if they feel like it, because it feels like something is over once you completed a segment. I strongly recommend punishing such behavior more, as has happened with the explorable mode changes.

After 3 consecutive runs you will level up, for even numbers it is 4 because of the bonus boss, if you return to the lobby before the 3rd or 4th run, it will reset the count.

I strongly disagree. People are free to do whatever they want, if my group is bad I should not be forced to stay with them just to avoid punishment.

this also, if you want a guarntee’d long run, look for a guild dedicated to fractals, im in one on anvil rock, but it is completely full, kinda our homemade dungeon finder, we have all kinds of people from other servers on there also

3 Fractals do not take as long as one explorable mode dungeon usually. This is far from “dedicated” or long. I would be less aggravated if all my efforts to keep up with the majority of regular players had not been for nothing thus far. Already it is getting harder to get/make groups for lv1 only…

It simply comes down to fractal not being a dungeon made for anyone other than the dedicated and guildies. Casuals should stay away since it’ll take a lot of luck to level up. O well… it’s working as intended.

I get that this is a problem for you, but that’s still no reason to punish someone if he doesn’t want to do a full run, for whatever reason. It also doesn’t matter how long a fractal takes, if someone wants to quit he has the right to quit.
In addition, just because one, two or three party member quit this doesn’t mean you have to cancel the run. Okay, some mechanics require a certain amount of players on higher level (e.g. the golem in Uncategorized Fractal needs at least 3 players on higher levels) but you can do lvl one, two and three with only two people. And even when Agony kicks in on level 10 you still don’t need a full party, 4 are still enough, sometimes even 3.

The only thing that need fixing is that DC’s can make runs fail, even for dedicated people, all the rest is ok.

Ive done 4 runs at level 1 and two at level 2 which did not complete.

1st lvl2 run- party leader assumed it was 3 fractals and left after looting the chest
2nd lvl2 run- someone dropped out in fractal 1, we carried on. End of fractal 2 party leader leaves kicking everyone. I hadnt picked up loot from the chest.

Since then ive failed to a get a party.

After thinking some more about this I came to the conclusion that it would probably be enough if leveling up would not require three consecutive runs (and the extra boss after three parts in a row should definitely stay, since it engourages parties to stay together for that long).

I think I’ve done all of them 4 man after getting DC’s Hell I bet 3 man is hard but possible for many. But ya there needs to be a way to get more people in.

I have done 8 and I’m still on lvl 1. I give up on this dungeon until all the random issues are fixed. Last time I tried we were on the third fractal, then everyone in the group got a message that said “talk to Trehearne” then we were all ported to LA.
