Guild Wars 2

Right now, the Fractal Daily system has quite a few problems.

First, the “choose any 3 fractals” from X tier daily is quite problematic. People will literally just choose the 3 easiest fractals they can do. These dailies are even more stagnant than the old system.

Second, the “suggested daily fractal” only pulls from fairly low level fractals (below level 50). There are also too few of these, in my opinion.

I think a much better system would be to have something like 10 Suggested Fractals for the Daily to replace the current system. Each time you complete a Suggested Fractal, you get a bonus reward chest. The more fractals you complete, the larger your reward gets.

This would be roughly equivalent to the system we have currently (3 Low Tier, 3 Mid Tier, 3 Higher Tier, 2 Suggested Fractals), but actually encourage people to DO SOMETHING OTHER THAN SWAMP 3 TIMES A DAY.

Each of the suggested fractals could be drawn from each decile of fractal levels:
1-10
11-20
21-30
31-40
41-50
51-60
61-70
71-80
81-90
91-100

This way, the number of fractal dailies available to a player remains proportionate to their personal reward level (as it was in the old system).

The exact number of daily fractals can go a bit up or down, and when bonus reward chests are given could be played around with. Some other possible formats:

• Have 9 Suggested Daily Fractals, and give a Casual, Adept, and Master chest after completing every other 3 Suggested Daily Fractals. Choose the 9 from 1-100, but ensure that 6 of them are below 50 so that lower level fractals remain more accessible. This option retains a moderate amount of fractals and favors low level fractals for a wider playerbase.
• Have 5 Suggested Daily Fractals, choose from 1-20, 21-40, 41-60, 61-80, 81-100. Give large reward chests for each of these, with larger rewards for higher level fractals. This option keeps Fractal Dailies short and simple.
• Have 14 Suggested Daily Fractals, one for each of the kinds of fractals (Volcanic, Cliffside, Swamp, Molten Duo…) Pick these randomly from all across the spectrum. Pick 2 from 1-10, 2 from 11-20, 2 from 21-30, 1 from 31-40, 1 from 41-50, 1 from 41-50, 1 from 51-60, 1 from 61-70, 1 from 71-80, 1 from 81-90, and 1 from 91-100. This option lets players spend a long time on fractals.

Whatever system is used, I think it’s better to lean upon a Suggested Daily Fractal system than a “choose any fractal you want” system that just encourages picking the easiest fractals all day. I also think it’s important to have Suggested Daily Fractals for levels above 50.

Actually i would like 10 dailies in each own bracket 1-10 , 11 – 20 etc. so you would choose fractals on same difficulty. Right now 21-50 is pretty much a joke. What is even a point of doing a 50?
