1. Return the wisps to the clefts – Wisps returned 0/3.

To start the Fractal off you must find and return 3 Wisps to the Clefts on the South side of the map. This seems simple at first, but once you grab the first Wisp a 30 second timer starts. If you don’t get all the Wisps to the Clefts before the timer runs out the Wisps and map will reset making you start all over again, meaning you are going to have to send a different member to grab each Wisp. To make things even more difficult the map is covered in traps a groups of enemies that will slow you down as you attempt to return the Wisps. It is a good idea to try and identify these traps before you grab the Wisp so you can avoid them with greater ease on your way back to the Cleft.

2. Explore the passage opened by the Mossman / Bloomhunger.

After returning all three Wisps to the Clefts a passage will be opened by Mossman / Bloomhunger. Head into the passage and towards one of the bosses. You will need to kill one of two different bosses in order to complete the Fractal.

3a. Kill the Mossman – Mossman.

Mossman will summon wolves from time to time that can be easily killed. Make sure to take them out when they are summoned before focusing on Mossman again. He can also enter stealth mode and reappear near a party member, using a devastating ability that will kill a player in one hit if they don’t avoid it.

3b. Kill Bloomhunger – Bloomhunger.

Bloomhunger should not pose too difficult to defeat. Simply stay away from the poisonous clouds, dodge his shock wave attack, and kill the enemies he spawns as they appear. If you keep the DPS up on him as you follow these three steps he will fall before you know it.
