So, now that we have this, can we get a daily for it? It’d give us one more daily to do which is cool, you could split the tiers so doing a t4 doesn’t cover all, meaning it’d breath a bit of extra life into the mid tiers. And, you’d be able to continually queue random fractals all night and actually get people to join the party for things other than just the certain 3 maps that night.

Unless you prevent people from re-rolling the ‘random’ fractal, folks will focus on the easiest one they can get.

I think there are probably better ways to “breathe extra life into the mid tiers”

Are any of the fractals other than maybe Swamp/Chaos worth rerolling out of for a normal team at this point?

Molten Boss already gets farmed. Aquatic’s boss is slow, but doesn’t require much attention (with the right party, which I’d expect if it became a meta).

My point is that as long as one fractal is demonstrably quicker than all others, then ‘everyone’ will re-roll for it. And if you can’t re-roll, then it’s not really random.

I like the idea of offering incentives to folks for doing mid-tier fractals. I like the idea of offering incentives that will encourage veterans to help newbies. I’m just disagreeing about the effect “random fractal” would likely have.

lvl 40 Duo gets farmed, that’s it though. 90 wouldn’t be a bad farm but I’ve yet to see a group advertised for it. 40 I see all the time though.

TBH I want anything that gets people more active in fractals across the board.

As for the random roll, what do you think the fastest/slowest fractals are? Cliffside is obviously kinda long, but it’s not that much longer and give a minute or two of re-rolling and it wouldn’t be worth it anymore I don’t think.
