Imagine that, it only took nearly a year of Living Story for the story to focus back on the dragons.  You know, the main villains of the game, the ones that right now are sitting in their fortresses, wondering why all these Tyrians haven't started making a move on them yet?

Still, trying to tie Scarlet in with the dragons NOW is too little, too late to save her.  None of her previous actions in any way fit into the story of the dragons, and it's hard to argue that she's trying to organize these alliances to fight the dragons when they are seemingly only antagonists and obstacles for us to fight.  So when you look at that, it becomes obvious that they're only tying her into the dragons now because so many players have expressed their hatred of her and how they want her to go away so we can focus on the dragons again.

I hope this isn't an attempt to salvage her as really trying to help (or fight) the dragons so they can keep reusing her throughout the dragon storylines.  They need to just give up on her and finish her story, then focus on the dragons again.

Odds are she'll end up dying, but not before that new tech she's using is taken by the Pact and used in our favor. Meaning she'll be a stepping stone to the next dragon.

Nooo! She can't die! Die, die die die, die die, die die die. Die.

The removal of the random element from Fractal rolling is frustrating as hell.  I just spent two hours with people trying to roll a Molten fractal with no success.  Had we been able to keep re-rolling the first one until we got it, we wouldn't be so frustrated.  As it stands, we had to constantly play through one fractal in order to find out that we'd rolled Cliffside or Snowblind for fractal two, oh darn, guess we start over!

Seriously, who was the moron who came up with this tiered shit?  It makes rolling your preferred fractal every time damn near impossible, turning the meta (and future dealings with the Fractals) into a game of chance.  It's insulting how easy the meta is, and yet, if you got shitty enough luck, you're wasting way more time on it than you ever should be.
