kind-of a fractal fail (pt 1)


Recommended Posts

There was this one time I joined a fractal group but I didnt see what the difficulty was and I somehow didnt die and completed it.

The fractal was inside a volcano and there was a yellow sideways square icon on the objective UI that looks like it modifies the monsters a bit. The thing was Mistlock Instability which makes the mobsters gain a buff on hit or something

Since I'm still new at doing fractals I also dont know which ones I should be doing or shouldnt be doing.?

At the end boss I got The floor is lava achievement ?

@wilykcat.5864 said:So I can join any level fractal as long if I dodge agony or get resistant to it. I dont know how to add resistance to my current gear though which is dungeon gear.

Yes you can, can be hard to dodge some of the agony damage tho.You cant you need ascended gear to slot in agony resistance.You can upgrade the +1 you get from fractals into higher ones at 1 of the cat golems in fractal lobby.

Quickest way to gain ascended is through jewellery and back items then buying agony from vendors inside the fractal hub. Jewellry/back items can be gained from;

  • Laurel vendors (I've kitted almost every toon out via laurel vendors with full ascended jewellry)
  • Guild commendation vendors
  • Maps like Bloodstone Fen, Ember Bay, Bitterfrost Frontier, Bjora Marches, Sirens Landing
  • Drops from fractals themselves (other ascended types drop here too) or bought with Fractal tokens
  • Certain story achievements in places like Heart of Thorns and Path of Fire
  • WvW

Next easiest is weapons;

  • Crafting
  • Elite specialisation collection completions
  • Achievements
  • Tequatl/Drakkar
  • Fractals
  • WvW

Armour is more often than not the last to get because it takes longer to craft, collect or drop.

How much agony resistance you require for a given fractal level can be found on the Wiki
