About fractals...

Pristine Fractal Relics are only gotten in the bonus chest on even fractal levels starting at level 10. You can get one bonus chest per character per day in the level 1-9 range, 10-19, 20-29, etc.

So per chara you can get as many Pristines as one-tenth of your fractal level (rounded down).

New to Game; Recommend a class?

Ranger can be fun and is very powerful in general PvE (there is a reason most bots use the ranger class). Can be good in dungeons too, but you need to know them well and design around the shortcomings of the pet AI. A bit weak for WvW. Weak enough that I bring my elementalist alt into WvW in lieu of my ranger main. Ranger is still the main class I bring into dungeons, though.

I main a ranger and run both Signet of Renewal and Lightning Reflexes. They have saved me from the Scavengers many a time.

Utility Infusions

Amulets are only obtained from the laurel vendor at the moment. Every set of three as they are listed share the same stats but have different infusion slots. Each set has one offensive, one defensive, and one utility. Find the stats you want, then find which of the three has the utility infusion slot.

"Sticky" Movement

I have also seen this odd behaviour. Spamming the movement keys can release it if you notice it in time. It caused a quite entertaining death as I ran off the high edge in the grawl fractal during the boss battle. >.<

It seems to only occur during moments when multiple movement keys are held down and you are moving camera angle with mouse2. And only occasionally.

Lieutenant Kholer: The pull is highly telegraphed and can be dodged or blocked by any ranged block skill or aegis.
Kholer’s minions: They only seem to have further range as they are above you. Pull Kholer down off the platform and engage him seperately. The minions will withdraw and allow you to kill just Kholer. After he is down, run up and wipe the minions with ease.
Graveling Breeders: Prioritize them and hit them hard.
Graveling Burrows: Prioritize right after the breeders. On path 1 (Hodgins) in the room with the burrows you can prevent the breeder from spawning with a hard enough preemptive strike on the burrow. Elementalist’s ice bow skill 4 with two players with bows can take out the burrow in about 1 second or so. I, personally, find that skill so useful that I don’t run AC without a party member being an ele (I have an ele alt, so I run it if noone else does).
Graveling Scavengers: They are a pain. If you can dodge their pounce, they will still do their full attack downed player animation making them not attack back for a short bit. If you do get pounced, use a stun-break. All classes have them and they are essential to surviving the scavengers if you do get pounced.

This dungeon can seem hard if you are not familiar with the tricks, but once you gain more experience you will see that this is not only one of the easiest dungeons, but also one of the better ones if you are simply looking to make money the honest way (aka not abusing the TP).

Are daily fotm rewards separate?

You can actually get the reward chest per character, not per account. I received two daily chests at level 2 in the same night (after the reset for both).

I would be highly interested in running Arah with you for dungeon master completion. Arah is the only dungeon that I have not yet had luck in completing all paths. I would be available both times and can bring a ranger, guardian, or elementalist.

Story Skipped or Changed? [merged]

In the initial post you state that if we’ve already run into one of these issues, our story path cannot be changed. As there is has been a lot of focus on the personal story (in fact the personal story subforum is subtitled ‘It really is all about you’), we had our choices forcibly changed by this bug, and the bug is not advertised (as in you need to outright look for it in the forums; it is not listed on the wiki) it would be a shame were we completely unable to actually do the correct story.

I am not asking for an immediate fix, but simply inquiring is there any future intention to be able to reset quest steps for those affected by this bug?

It is not still listed in the initial post, but “Forging the Pact” can and will still alter your personal story if you do it with a party member who chose a different fear.
