Guild Wars 2

Hey guys.

i’m kind of lost, so I’d like a little clarification.

I am currently at level 16.

Let’s imagine I am the top level in the group, others are 1, 5, 8 and 12.

So I launch fractal with this group, I assume the whole group will be 16, with difficulty 16, agony and all that.

Now will people 1 and 5 have bonus reward too since they’re impairs? if they do I understand they will have their own level kind of reward.

Will everybody gain a level in fractal?

Now let’s still say I’m 16. I’m playing with a 30, 11, 3, 24

Will we be able to chose the level we want to play? Say we choose level 10 for easyness, will level 30 and 24 still have bonus reward such as pristine? I think I understand they’ll get rewards based on the current level right?

Thanks for your help, I’m kind of lost and would like to do fractals with people of very low levels, but still I don’t really want to lose pristine or ascended rings.

I can’t answer all your questions but I can answer a few as we did try fotm last night with the following group : 9, 11, 11, 14, 21+
We chose to enter : 14
All received the bonus 4th round with a pristine and the 21+ gained some karma as well
We all raised in level according to what level we were initially except for the 21+ that he didn’t gain level but got karma in exchange.
Seeing as we did a lvl 10+ fractal and even number we got the bonus round as it always happens and the pristine as its 10+
If you go in with lower levels and do under 10+ I doubt you will be getting a pristine but I have yet to try this and confirm the results.

Hope this helps

@gamelord…good info. so I guess if you are the high level guy and not going in at the fractal level you are, you are…SoL… Kharma in exchange for increase in level.

Did the 21+ get a pristine?

yes he did as it was 10+ (lvl14) and we had the 4th bonus round so mechanics stay the same in this but seeing as we did a fractal level lower than his there is by no chance or logic him going up in level

I find that the mechanics they used is quite logical and easy to comprehend

Also as a side note we did enjoy the fact that the following happened last night (part of the fotm updates) :
We were fighting a boss and went at it all wrong (we kinda knew it) and 2 of us were downed. the other 3 stepped out of the combat area of the boss and the 2 players that were downed were able to click “restart from checkpoint” … quite nice instead of the previous “all jump to your death” so we can chose that option :P

This is now clear in my mind. Thank you very much gamelord
