Everyone has a fighting chance
Rift players are heading into the game to try out the new Carnival of the Ascended that is ongoing now through March 18th. The event will feature new masks, pets, treasures, and more. All players have to do is head to Sanctum or Meridian to get started.
This week fantasy MMO Rift saw the abyssal passage open to 20-player raid, Tyrant’s Forge. Legion technicians are busily working on a new body for the Dragon of Air, so get your armored butt in gear!
Trio Worlds has announced that the next Rift update will officially launch on Tuesday, January 28th. Called "Storm at Sea", the update will see a new 20-player raid, a new Chronicle, a Nightmare Raid rift, an expansion to planar attunement and much more.
From January 16-21st, Rift’s hosting a new event called Arclight Ascendancy and unveiling Arclight Riders in Moonshade Highlands. Players can help test pilot these new hovering hogs and thus rack up Enduring Sourcestone Battery.
Despite the one minor hiccup I experienced getting from level 64 to 65, I was thoroughly enjoying myself. Then I began what I call the "endgame experience." RIFT has always had a lot to do at max level. The artifacts have always been a favorite of mine, as they give me a reason to go out and explore this huge world. There’s probably thousands of artifacts out there for you to find. It’s almost a bit daunting actually. Thank the lord for minions, who have made this a bit simpler.
Just before writing this article, I finally hit level 65 in RIFT: Nightmare Tide, and I couldn’t be happier to get that whole leveling thing out of the way. From level 60 to 64, my leveling experience with Nightmare Tide had been extremely positive. Things were moving quickly, but not so quickly as to undermine the achievement of gaining a level. Quests were fun and engaging, so much so that I think a lot of them are going to stick with me for quite some time.
For the past two years, RIFT has been the one MMO that is always on my playlist. Perhaps there is a special event going on. Perhaps I was just getting bored and wanted to see some familiar faces. But this time around, it was RIFT’s newest expansion that lured me in: Nightmare Tide. But is this new addition to the game just a small puddle that gets in the way? Or is it a whirlpool that will suck players in with its powerful current? Let’s dive in and find out!
The latest Rift expansion has launched as of today. To celebrate the Nightmare Tide release, Trion has sent out a brand new trailer. Check it out!
As the Rift team prepares for the launch of Nightmare Tide, new articles about dungeons and locations are helping prepare players for dungeons and locations throughout the expansion. Today’s article features a look at the Citadel of Insanity dungeon and walks players through the encounter.
