Dredgefractal overnerved!
While I see your point, I find this to be utterly ironic and kind of embarrassing.
Bombs weren’t exactly hard to begin with, just be glad clown cart is nerfed and ask for challenging content in some other topic.
The bomb was never difficult.
Was only frustrating without TS due to long time needed to coordinate via chat.
Yet was extremely easy once you lost 15 minutes to explani -.-
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.
Sanderinoa they just overnerv stuff instead of finding real balance.
While I appreciate the removal of the clown car or the fix of the camera on the grawl shaman encounter,…having such visible effects on rabsovich and such an easy and stupidious way to deal with the bomb path is just too much. I feel bad bc if i want to do fractals lvl 1 I go there.
The rabso tells killed me xD so stupid
Am I right in thinking that Rabsovich used to turn towards you as you tried to move away from his big attack, but now he stays on the orange/red line? That would explain why he’s so much simpler.
Yes I agree that it is too simple now. Great to see some new ideas here, great to have the bulk of the fractal cut down, but too easy now. Give Rabsovich some of his troops back. Entirely remove the mobs between Rabsovich and the end boss as they are no use for anything.
I thinks anet should turn the character of everyone complaining the fractal is too easy into a dredge with the title “Rabsovich witness”.
Took 18 months of pain and suffering….while it was constantly ruined patch after patch.
After they finally decide to do something you can t complain.

Threads like this need to be completely ignored.
Everyone complains about dredge for over a year, ANet fix it to (time-wise) be in line with other fractals, and people … complain.
It was not overnerfed… They are all easy and so was dredge BEFORE the nerf, now it’s easy and doesn’t take forever to complete.
50/50 GWAMM x3
I quit how I want
Let’s not forget how cheesy the tactic for bomb actually was, Stealth, put down 5 bombs, portal back, then suicide rush the last 2 bombs.
Apparently I’m not capable of being nice. No OP. I believe you are wrong. Good luck in your future endeavors.
And all who stood by and did nothing, who are they to criticize the sacrifices of others?
Our blood has bought their lives.
Annoying content =/= challenging content, if you didn’t catch on.
“Memories are nice, but that’s all they are.”
The dredge bomb was never difficult provided you have a thief in the party that knows what he is doing. Since I main thief in FoTM I was able to explain to PUGs my tactics and we were able to complete the bomb phase in 3runs.(5 at a time) and and me soloing the last 2. Thief for dredge is like Guardian for most bosses in fotm, its a must have if you want smooth run.

Even without a thief, a guardian with sanctuary can help the group with the suicidal bombing, then rinse and repeat.

I don’t even think you need to wait for the bombs to explode now. You just run ahead with like 30s of stealth and place them in a pipe.

It’s nowhere close to be in line with other fractals.
It might be in line with other fractals in fractal level scale 1.
That’s true.
If all you care about is loot and getting done with a dungeon in less thn 5minutes without enjoying the content than I congratulate you guys for your carrots!
It might not have been a challenge before but now It’s just a joke.
I feel stupid placing 9 bombes in a pipe after receiving some endless stealth without any resistance. If there would be at least some interesting mechanic which actually would require some coordination but like this I’m sorry boyz and girlz.
Dredge fractal has always been easy. The issue was that it used to be overwhelmingly annoying.
Now it’s just easy.
Lilith are you scared i got a point?

I’m scared of nothing bookah. But you’re just wrong. So shut the meow up and stop trolling.

Nope, she just wants you to shut your trap, man. I share her opinion on that matter, but as I’m certain that words won’t do much to dissuade you, I’ll just wait until you get tired of being disagreed with.
Also, if you care to know my opinion on that fractal, you might want to refer to my previous response.
I think people just want to see Dredge disappear from the list honestly. I honestly would prefer Dredge being super easy the way it is right now than giving Anet the idea of tinkering with it given their track record with the Dredge fractal.

Pretty sure OP is a Masochist. “I preferred it when I had to put up with extreme tedium for longer periods of time!”
Dredge is fine the way it is. The puzzle mechanics are still present, and the final bosses which I always enjoyed fighting haven’t been touched.
And for the record, I think the new dredge fractal has just the right amount of nerve.

This. I agree with this.
ITT: There will always be people who will find reason to complain just about anything.
I kind of agree with Bart.
While the fix is great we got non-combat puzzles to replace them.
Why all the violence guys?
The nerve of Anet!
I dont like the non combat puzzles but atleast dredge takes a reasonable amount of time to complete now. So i cant really complain too much.

Come on, you were literally dying of joy while doing the puzzle. You adore it, just admit it.

… I really like the new dredge. Now it’s on line with others length-wise…
I still prefer Cliffside though. That scenery.

Cliffside, my favorite fractal. I kind of like the puzzle without fight but maybe it’s only because I like not having to fight dredge. But I’m the kind of guy who want jumping puzzle in dungeons XD.
Is Cliffside the most time consuming one now? And not a single champ bag whatsoever.
My looty feels.
Good stuff anet, such a slog before.
How can you ppl grumble about dredge being rollface? Isn’t it the thing we were asking for MONTHS? O_O
I am very happy. Dredge has now some puzzle elements, very fun to begin with
The giant is pretty frickin’ cool looking, too
#AlwaysSlashBow
Let’s get one thing straight. Dredge was never hard content. It was boring. Dredge was boring b/c it was tediously long. It is still boring b/c the puzzles are boring. This alternative is 1000% better, so I’m not complaining, but I don’t necessarily think its fun.
