Administrator Elpida Callis from the Consortium.
She’s my guess for the nemesis as well.
Same issue, Arah path 2. I’ve finished this path twice, only to lose a completion to a glitch. This time, the group finished, I had my rewards, only to exit the dungeon, get disconnected, and reconnect to a rollback – and no rewards. Last time, we got to the final boss and she wouldn’t engage. Six hours wasted…
Many, many kittens whirling round and round in a blender…

Brilliant play – props!
Just ran path 2. When we got to Brie, she would not engage in any way. We tried fruitlessly to get her to activate, but could not.
I’ve experienced the same issue multiple times. I feel as though I should be able to revive the dead and type a thank you message in chat without worrying about being booted from the instance before I can loot. This is remarkably poor design and must be fixed.
To the OP: I’ve done this fractal on 30+. It’s a tough fight that requires coordination of the the group and a clear strategy; it may even take multiple attempts, but it’s certainly doable.

You’re referring to the Underground Facility Fractal, not Volcanic.
When transformed into the “whirlpool,” no abilities display on the hotbar, just gray boxes with the locked icon; it simply lacks a tooltip. I did some testing, but it was performed in LA, with no enemies present. I’m wondering if the lack of enemies to damage led to the whirlpool animation not displaying; I will retest elsewhere to confirm.
Not having access to any abilities is part of the skill. The lack of the graphic is definitely a bug.
I’m willing to bet if Elementalist’s Whirlpool was fixed, our graphics issue would be fixed.
Tested repeatedly and the whirlpool displays consistently when activated. The tooltip for this skill is lacking, and the wiki no more illuminating.
In truth, if this does turn out to be a large nerf, then Grenade Kit use will drop. If this is truly is the only viable build, the engineer log-on count will drop; dollars-to-donuts Anet tracks these numbers and will buff the class if this happens.
Grenades are too easy to use at lower skill levels (static targets), but take a much higher skill level to use effectively in the harder dungeons (e.g., Fractals +30) where you’re moving and dodging constantly (steering and reticle-aiming at the same time while watching for tells does require higher skill level). I would happily trade the damage nerf for a lock-on aim for grenades.
I feel each race should have its own engineer equipment themed based on what race you are, Foe example. Asuras should have asura style turrents and weapons (flamethrower etc). I feel this would make the engineer a much more fun class to play.
A la shaman totems in a certain other popular mmo? +++++1

104 crit chance
Perhaps they were referring to crit damage, of which 104 is easily attainable.
I just experienced this problem. I placed 4 rare crafted level 80 earrings into the MF and received nothing in return.
I experienced the same problem today. 100% map completion, received the reward box for the final map completed, no pop-up screen containing the Gifts of Exploration. Returning to the Chantry resolved the issue, thankfully.
