Guild Wars 2

I’ve been doing Fract 49 every day since forever, and after last update, were supposedly increased drops, I have gotten 1 skin (that I have like 7 copies of), and 1 ascended box(Armor) and nothing more… I barely get even rings(not that I need them). Same goes for the entire party, noone is gettign anything… I am getting tired of this **** ….

Fractal is joke. Horrible item/gold drop. Normal dungeon has 10x better drop and is 10x faster I have no idea why someone should go Fractal.

If they can’t even fix the LFG tool to show the correct tiers for a better search function, i wouldn’t get my hopes up that it will be fixed within a year.

Never,

That being said,

I’m still crying over all the dredge I have been punished with recently :’(

Just did 49 and I got bad infused ring…. and we had dredge fractal -.- i can’t describe this feeling. this reward system is the reason why i am playing GW2 so rarely

In one hand, I like it that skins remain rare. In the other… well, the rewards are sooooo pathetic.
I take it that you do get gold in the form of rares and sometimes exotic, but due to some unholy streak of bad luck, you might get no ectos from those either.

FotM is supposed to be GW2’s endgame. With these rewards, I’m not surprised that only a few run higher levels on a daily basis.

Fractal rewards are fine. I got so many rings of various stats.

You are joking right… I mean if u run lvls from 1-20 I can understand why you said this… but seriously….. rings hahaaaahahahha.. Everyone that runs fractals frequently have so much relics that can buy every ring twice and infuse it before running out of them….

p.s. Various stats? i get knight and rampager and celestial mainly…

They do updates to fractals once a year so keep that in mind

They do updates to fractals once a year (at best) to make it worse
so keep that in mind

Fixed it for you

I think it was made very clear to them in the CDI that this was a large issue with fractals. Unfortunately, the only update after the CDI that was supposed to improve drops, seems to have made them worse. We’ll see if they actually took the feedback seriously in the next few months, I guess.

Here is the fix schedule, each phase takes several months:

• Phase 1: Deny/ignore problem.
• Phase 2: Ask for lists of issues/ideas for fixes
• Phase 3: Announce an Exciting!™ fix that will blow your socks off!
• Phase 4: Fix released, completely ignoring all suggestions from Phase 2, not addressing at least 50% of the problem, and totally bugged.
• Phase 5: Return to Phase 1.

What qualifies as good loot? Cause I’ve been doing scale 1-10 fractals and getting way better loot than in dungeons. Only thing that’s better in dungeons is gold.

That kind of reminded me of the 5 stages of denial skipping the anger part (unless they consead it from us..).. and now they are probably at stage 5 – Acceptance … we accept the bugs and we dont wanna fix them… deal with it…

Because dungeons don’t drop ascended armor/weapon chests, and you can’t get fractal skins there.

And they don’t drop randomly, with random stat combinations and random weapon types as to make sure you can’t use them.
Also dungeons don’t provide the kittened amount of gold required to craft ascended gear [stats and type of your choosing].
Tooootally wurf it.

Don’t be like that, they made a CDI! Give them 3-4 months and they will say they are going to work on it soon…give them 6-7 more years for another mega-features update to have it done!

in fractal (armor/weapon) doesnt drop too. lol. 49 fotm ~40-70 min > 1,5 gold, if lucky 2-3 rare. ok ill better run cof p1 for 5min and get my 1,5g, npc’s talking eat more time then fighting.

reward for fotm is so unfair. for high lvl fotm I mean (38-50).

There is nothing to fix. Everytime the same mimimi. If you want cash than go back ac p1-3. In Fract you get easy Asc weapon/armor chest, Fract (less often after fractur ptach but its okay) and asc rings.

I´m doing dayli lvl 50 with my team and 10,20,30,40 with friendlist team.
Lvl 50 arround 45-60min. The other lvl 30-45min.

And every teammember have arround ~15+ weapon-/armorchests.

So plz anet. Dont fix anything <3. Fract is for player who love it, not for the kids who want to make fast money.

Sorry for holding the short end of the stick but today marks the three consecutive weeks that I have received absolutely nothing in my daily 50 reward chest. Yes, I’ve been doing at least 3 tiers a day as well and two of them give me nothing, one the same kitten ring over and over. Is it a stretch to ask for a better chance for rewards?

Sure, Anet doesnt have to fix anything FOR YOU, so g-t-f-o?

Edit: typo.

So far, farming a variety of level brackets I’ve had 3 ascended armour chests, an ascended weapons chest, 3 weapon skins, 1 blank weapon (what is with that anyway, guess i’m supposed to put a jewel in it?!), a myriad number of rings some of which I’v kept the rest are only worth vendoring.

So in total, not too bad a set of drops given I’ve only recently hit 500 fractals. Just enough to keep me wanting to do fractals. It’s challenging enough that it’s worth playing. A few more levels would make it more interesting and bringing back the levels >50 would be awesome

Was this blank weapon obtained pre-Fractured? If so, it’s a fractal skin.
