I don't know how to directly give the answer, so I'm typing it in Adithya1234's comment section, hope you don't mind. The four inherent defecets in the Weimar constitution were Proportional representation: Achieving a majority by a single party was near impossible, leading to coalitions.
Article 48: It gave the power to the President to impose emergency, suspend civil rights and rule by decree (BTW, this point is most important)
Twenty different cabinets came to power lasting on a n average 239 days, with liberal use of Article 48.
People lost confidence in the democratic parliamentary system.
You can choose any three, but I would suggest the first three, and Article 48 is the most important point
