Guild Wars 2

How come 2 members of our group get 2 bags of gold, and others get 2×20 pcs of fractal relics? This is so unfair, I would rather have the fractals!

This is just… I am so angry right now. Holy kittening kitten. I go through the bugged kitten dungeon for 3 hours. At the end, everyone else in my party gets 40 fragments, bringing their total to 85. I get zero fragments, instead I get two bags of gold worth about two silver, which is just kittening insulting considering all the effort I put into it.

Basically everyone else got double the reward I did. 85 fragments vs 45. Great. Terrific.

Can you PLEASE get over your sick fetish for making everything random. I don’t want to be randomly screwed in the kitten and not get any bonus.

William is this fix already up, or do we need to wait for new build?
And in transition from level 4 to 5 we got nothing as prompt and no rewards.

EDIT: My god he totally erased the comment O.O

@William Fairfield
As well the issue of the non-existent drops from phase 4 to 5 (after jade and Ascalon fights)? please will be nice if you can answer.

1) Will we get mailed the fractal tokens we were supposed to get?

2) There should be a public announcement to INFORM everyone that the token rewards are MISTAKENLY being subjected to RNG.

It would have to be a rough compensation to all players, because currently there is no system in place to record personal player data. At least after being cleaned out after getting hacked I was reassured that there will be one in the future. . . for whatever that’s worth.

I too got two bags of gold. Which I wouldn’t mind if they actually had gold in them. :p

Any chance you can just rename them to bags of silver? :p

I hope we get that rewards later.

This needs to be fixed. I already missed both daily rewards. So others in my group have 40 more fractals relics than me. Which is 1/3 more than I have.

Who whole part has just missed out on the level 10 ascendant ring.
Do you even test your content before you release it?

Here’s some free advice, divert a couple of bucks from your ivory back scratcher budget and hire some content testers!

Or they could simply have a PTR and let players test it for them… It seems to work for WoW releases. That way they can still afford ivory back scratchers for everyone and have well-tested releases.

So were we meant to get the ascended ring on 10 to 11 or was that just a bug? Gotten up to 13 now and the agony damage is getting very hard to deal with on certain fights without any resistance to it.

So do we get Ascended ring or not at lvl 10-11Fractal? I need an answer. I did not get one alot of others have not either. Soon agony will make it pointlesss to go up the fractal levels without a ring.

Answer pls.

Same here we need an answer on this asap, the same 2 people on my party got a ring, the 3 rest of us nothing, and we are now on fractal 13 and here it hurts like hell.

Yep, we’re basically being held back by bugs/random loot.
Hey, Arenanet. William, Robert, whoever. How about you stop only looking for threads that praise you and give us a straight answer on this?

just did level 10 didn’t get a ring as well some of the party get ( those that were lying on the floor for most time probably thats the way of getting it:D)

still it be nice if you could get ring outs for those who did level 10 and not recived the ring..

mostly the good player base gets rewarded less than the normal one..→ as in gw1 you felt like you got good loot if you haven’t played for a while and now dungeons get nerfed down ( you already nerved some boss mechanics on the asura path in the new dungeon ) made it way easier. Still I hope there is like above a certain level a sure drop of an exotic since the money you have to invest to get past agony ect is pretty mutch so loot better be good to once award good players:)

So does the above developer comment also go for these chests at the lvl 10 fractal boss that yield people their ascended rings?
From my dungeon group I was just the only one receiving a ring from the chest and everyone is pretty defeated by this, as we want to gear up together, not run the same lvl endlessly just so 1 person at a time can get a random ring that might not even be the stats they would need.

Besides that, until this fix, should we rerun the lvl 10 fractal over and over for the rings to drop for our dungeon group or do the lvls upwards from that also drop chests which yield rings?

As a side note, don’t you love how a “bag of gold” doesn’t have any gold in it?

Problem still not fixed ! Me and 4 of my friends finished fractal 10 and ALL yes ALL got bag of gold , no rings no nothing just bull ! What should we do next ? Can we even think to start lvl 11 of fractals ? How can we endure 2 more lvls of fractal if the extra chest give us nothing to make us continue the runs ! What can we do now ? All its lost !!!

What you all need to understand is that Anet patches work on something akin to Blizzard time.
You can expect a patch for this sometime after “Now” and before “The End Of Time”.

So everyone is supposed to get a ring? I know people who got rings many times and I’m still waiting to get one. Not that I mind that much if the drop rate is reasonable, but if it’s a bug and not a feature, it’s sort of unfair and unwanted.

I feel there is some truth to it, I always found my best items (even in gw1) after a short break. Maybe it’s in my head, but if it’s a feature it’s really annoying for people like me who refuse to stop untill they get what they want

After i completed lvl 10 i got a chest with the ring, but now, every time i rerun lvl 10 i get no chest, while other ppl in my team say they get a chest every time they do lvl 10.
Is that normal?

I’m not sure but I think you are supposed to get one the first run you do at lvl 10+ that day. Bit like dungeons resetting. Be glad you actually got the ring, I’ve seen people with more than one (up to 4). I’m still waiting to see if it’s a bug or a feature.

It’s a daily bonus. Meaning if you’ve already done it in that day, you don’t get it again.

You will need to wait until the daily reset in order to get that same chest again.

On a related topic, the drop rate of rings aren’t too bad guys so if you missed out on the 10-11 ring – just keep doing it daily and you’ll get it. I’ve spoken with a number of people who seem to think the chance of getting a ring as a bonus is around 30-40% (estimate) which is really not that low. Keep at it – I know I will!

Yeah thanks, I will. It just gets increasingly frustrating to not get when everyone around you is getting more than one

Well the first time i completed lvl 10 was the day before yesterday.
The other 2 runs i did on different days, so they should have been reset.Still i never had daily chest popup.
I think u only get it the first time u complete lvl 10.

day 4, no ring again. I HATE RANDOM.

Not really able to continue because I can not get that stupid ring to drop. Stuck at the same level 18 because agony gets too hard without more agony resist. Now my guild is split in people by levels and those that got lucky with the ring lottery….

I really liket he design and the difficulty of those fractals. But some decicions (like levels dictatet by lowers and the ring lottery) are simply horrible.

William Fairfield.1428:

There will be a patch to address this issue.

3 days later – any update on this?

Just wondering, because I spent about 25 minutes LFG for a 10, but finally did a 9.

After completing the 9, we went to 10 – same group.

Had a DC on the dredge level after the tank boss (before the golem).

4 manned the golem.

3rd fractal was the Charr – bugged and wouldn’t start, so abandoned.

Spent another 30 minutes LFG for a 10, and finally got one.

As soon as we zone in, someone leaves (still in Dessa’s lab) for an emergency.

Spend another 20 minutes finding another 5th (mostly suppressed – all 4 of us).

Run the 10.

2 people got rings, and 3 didn’t.

Well over an hour of waiting, a full 9 run, a 2 fractal 10 run (10 manning the Ice Elemental dredge boss), and a full 10 run, and no ring.

And it seems we’re supposed to get one – at least our 1st time completing 10?

Just really curious what is actually supposed to happen.

Theres a chance you might get one, or you can wind up with what you would normally get. I got greens and a bag of gold from the Jade Maw chest on level 10, pretty disappointing reward, one member on the other hand got a ring. It’s all about luck.

Well atleast they are looking into hotfixing this , still after this long grind on different difficulty settings after 10+ we shouldn’t be faced with RNG make it a higher drop chance of guaranteed. People cannot progress without the agony stat.
