Reporting Opponents AFK?
I noticed a certain geared cleric (guess which one) AFKing, and I didn't have the option to report him in the same manner I can report my teammates.
So I took a screenshot, and with my 73k life rogue owned him, then reported him after the match.
Can we expand the ability to report AFK during a WF for opponents as well? I rather get them out of the WF and hit with the debuff then have them show up on my team next round.

Save The NPC's !
These poor souls need your help, donate to the poor dev fund which could enable NPC's everywhere to be delivered from indignity and isolation... maybe even a horrible death! Here is a small example of the horror... all in Draumheim, two who are forever lodged under water, gurgling like a bogling, and a real curiosity, a banker perched on the peak of a 5 story roof, where he remains without friends or business.
100% of all donations go directly to the dev coffee fund so they wakeup and fix these poor souls so they can again be productive Rift citizens.

Greybriar The Elders: Recruiting Mature Adults for Laid Back Fun & Medium Core Style Raiding
The Elders have always been an easy going guild with a relaxed emphasis on helping our fellow guild members and having a good time as we moved forward. Our plan has always been to progress into guild team runs & raids while maintaining a no-pressure, non-elitist, non-hard core approach.
So many of us have real life jobs and commitments that supply enough pressure - we don't want to get involved in a similar situation in this game. That being said, meeting challenges, testing our game skills and working together to achieve a solution to a tough scenario may wind some of us up briefly - but it need not be all humorless, hard core clamped down seriousness! This is a game - not a second job - and we are here to have fun!!
We believe it is possible to both kick butt in dungeons AND be a fun, friendly, casual type guild.
We believe there is a middle way between the merely social guilds and the hard-core raiders.
We believe in "medium-core"
We are looking for new people who share the same outlook as this guild. People who value long term game friendships, loyalty, support, humor & helpfulness. People who are in for the "long haul" as we work our way together progressing in Rift.
We have members who can tank - we have members who can heal - but these few cannot be expected to be available for everything all the time. Therefore tanks & healers are especially welcome but we will be delighted to have any and all classes.
We are a level cap guild presently working on the 10 person raids with an eye on the 20 person ones. Our raid night is currently on Thursday. We are presently working toward getting our second 10 person team back together for Monday evenings. Wednesday evening we do the PTW weeklies as a group. These events begin at 5pm Server Time. Thursday runs generally last 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Other guild group events may occur on randomly subsequent evenings.
If you are a mature adult with a sense of humor, a dash of patience and a desire to help a guild continue to progress and succeed in raids & runs as well as provide fun and assistance to the newest Rift players - please consider joining The Elders.
If interested please send a PM to one of us in game.

Defiler DPS rework on PTS
In case anyone is interested, the Defiler rework is up on the PTS right now. And as always, just remember it's the PTS for a reason.
Some notable changes:
- Jealous Intervention no longer a cleanse but a 2 buff purge
- Only link retained is Link of Misery with a CD and a short 10s duration (like Warchanter)
- Unstable Transformation is now a personal DPS cd but you still get to be ugly!
- Lots of dots
If you have a Cleric on the PTS already with Defiler and you respec it, you might actually end up seeing all of the deprecated abilities (that do work.) You can relog or just respec a new role instead and you'll be good to go.
Edit:
Bugs/Feedback:
- Jealous Intervention is active as a purge on ally. I'm able to purge 2 buffs off of myself
- Feedback is still in the ability page despite not being in the root

Warrior pvp 3.6 and 3.7
Hello,
Short video clips :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbVM...ature=youtu.be
- patch 3.6 : reaver, riftblade, para/pala hybrid (with the farmer's hat wardrobe)
- patch 3.7 : para/pala hybrid (with the other wardrobe)
Hope you enjoy.
NB : Most of the players I "1vs1" can easily defeat me in any other classic spec, even with the pala/para hybrid if i can't put enough pressure at the begening of the fight i'm dead vs melee with burst (para, sin, etc).

"You cannot craft more of this unique item"?!
Ok, so i read the closed thread from last year regarding this issue, equipped the first Heretic's Faetouched Earing, and then tried again to craft the second one.
Same red message.
So i purchased and used a Crafter's Energy Infusion from the Shop (315 credits), which resets the cool-down of crafting recipes, thinking this might be what's going on, and still no love.
So they must intend for us to work very hard for these recipes, purchase the expensive Shop ingredients, then only ever produce...one...item from said recipe?
I'm i missing something?

End Game Primalist
Mind you the question is concerned with end game.
1. It does not have support souls or an AOE healing soul.
2. The ST healing soul can not keep up with Purifier and Frostkeeper (not because it's bad, but because the damage/healing meta is).
3. It offers probably the most variety concerning damage souls, but only one of those is currently used because it's competitive enough.
4. Titan is good sometimes. Most people don't like tanking, regardless of calling.
So deciding what to play for Primalist goes like this:
Play damage (and be competitive)
Play Titan (sometimes)
Do not play heal
Do not play support
Do the same thing for other callings and you get to the answer of your question.
In order to play Primalist effectively you need to have understood the Focus Bar and its interaction and effect with and within the different souls. Some regard this as an extra layer of difficulty.

Elementalist Full Heal in PvP
So lately in WFs I've been seeing a lot of mages run Elementalist. It does great damage, and I see players who are less geared than me pull off slightly more damage than me as a range spec. This is no problem, as I don't know how overtuned/undertuned it really is or how it plays.
However, in addition to being pretty strong as a ranged spec, it has a full heal, which in addition to their pet, adds just about 2 additional health pools that you have to deal with, on top of the 40k self-heal trinket if they happen to have it. Even Ranger isn't this stupidly OP with Diffuse.
I was wondering if it was intended for mages to be able to have the full heal in PvP, instead of having reductions like other classes with self-healing abilities like Nightblade, which has been reduced significantly, as with Warlord's No Permission to Die.
This has been pretty frustrating over the week to see an Elementalist revive at 100% health from an objective that was supposed to kill the player or simply from any other player that had the kill.
It's also worse with Mages playing Frostkeeper, which is still overtuned in PvP.
Is there going to be a fix to this, or do we have to kill their pet every time we see an Elementalist in a WF?
Also, playing a mage or a warrior seems to be the rage nowadays. Can rogues and clerics get some love too?

Any word on extending the summerfest?
I know we got some 'compensation' for the crashes, but besides the bracelet, it didn't do much extra for patrons... Since patron already has the bonus on currencies and such..
What I would like to see is the event extended till monday, so every player will have the weekend to make up for lost time due to the crashes, freezes, failed updates and other issues from the past 2 weeks.

HK, MS, TF Achievement Runs Group
Hey all, we have been running HK 5/11 or 7/11 and working on achievements each week and having a lot of fun. We are always looking for good players who are interested in mostly having some late night fun and also gaining a few tough achieves.
If you are interested, the people hosting this are Supertrampz and Dirtyslayer @ Hailol.
Times: Wed/Thurs 9:30 pm shard time until Midnight.
Requirements: Sicaron and/or Inwar Darktide achievement.
Hit/gear. 1400 hit (or close to). The reason is: If we plan to get some achieves we will need to get high-end dps such as on doing Inwar without him casting his 3rd Surge or defeating Sicaron without gaining 20 contracts. This actually requires 3 mill dps! Not easy.
If you are interested at all (NA), please let either of us or leave a message here or PM me.
It is a pretty good group.. We have some people parsing over 150K and on Sicaron around 230+K. It is a pretty solid group and most of the people who join have a good time. We can quickly run 7/11 however once you add any achievement into the mix, it can take some time.
Current Needs always: Tanks and Pullers on Estrode (who actually know how to pull)
Next week's run: We plan to go for a faster run and only do a couple achieves on Bosses Garuu, Sicaron, and Inwar.
Following week: MS Jino and Yogurt: Plan to do Double Black Diamond and No deaths, no charms on Yrlwalach

3.7 Void Knight Guide
Void Knight (VK) is one of Warrior's two tanking souls. Its strength as a tank soul lie in its unparalleled ability to group up large amounts of enemies and its utility with access to purges and cleanses.
While it has been outshone by newer tanking souls, VK is a very reliable tank soul and is worth picking up by any warrior interested in tanking.
*This guide is meant to teach both the basics of tanking as well as the specifics of void knight, so experienced non-VK tanks may find this guide somewhat redundant*
What do tanks do?
There are two key aspects that define tanking:
Threat - getting all of the enemies to attack you and not your allies
As enemies in the game are controlled by a computer, they use a metric known as ‘threat’ to decide who to attack. Doing damage to an enemy or healing an ally generates threat. It is a tank’s job to generate more threat than its allies so that enemies attack you.
Survivability - not dying from all of the enemies attacking you
Since enemies will be attacking you more than anyone else it is important to not die. This is why tank builds as defensive as possible, including everything from soul tree builds to gear and weapons to planar attunement points. Many abilities in tank souls increase your survivability by either providing constant boosts to your defences or short bursts or massively increased survivability.
Point Spread:
61 Void Knight/15 Paladin/0 Tempest
Best Survivability
61 Void Knight/15 Paladin/0 Tempest
Slightly better damage for little loss to survivability. (I promise the point spread is different)
The third soul provides no benefit to survivability, only utility, so it is flexible.
Tempest provides 30m range and the highest DPS
Reaver provides 30m range if you don't own Tempest.
Warlord provides an additional pull ability.
Champion provides a charge.
Mastery Alternatives:
62: Protective Aura is a viable option. You lose slight self survivability and some range, but you gain a slight boost to raid survivability.
Synergy Crystal:
Protector’s Crystal
Gear & Stats:
Tanks have very different itemization than healers or damage dealers. Tanks have different tertiary stats, mean that physical crit, ability power, and crit power are useless to tanks. Tank gear has block, dodge, or guard on it.
It is very important to reach 10% guard for the content you are trying to tank. (you can see what your guard % is for a given content by hovering over the number on your character sheet) 10% of your strength is also added to your guard.
After you reach that threshold, you want to get as much endurance as you can. Block and dodge are fairly worthless so don’t worry about them.

*** Mastery
Playstyle:
*Threat and Survivability are not exclusive, you need to have both to be a good tank*
Pacts:
Pacts are the central mechanic of Void Knight. They are generated passively, as well as when you take damage or use Unstable Reaction. They power many of your powerful defensive abilities as well as your AOE abilities, so it is important to monitor your pacts to make sure you are getting the most of your abilities. (I have screen popups that tell me when my pacts are low and when I have no pacts)
Threat:
In single-target situations, your main threat generation is going to be Reckless Strike x3 > Devouring Blow.
In multi-target situations you will use Tempest > Ragestorm as your builders and use Unstable Reaction when it is available (or Devouring Blow).
Taunts:
Taunts do not generate threat, but force an enemy to attack you for 3 seconds, allowing you time to generate enough threat to keep them attacking you after the taunt wears off. Rift Summon, Void Summon, Spark, and Airburst are all taunts, and they should be used liberally when new enemies spawn to guarantee that they won’t attack your allies.
*Remember that AOE taunts are also single-target taunts if you really need one*
Passive Survivability:
Use Retaliation when it is available as well as Aggressive Block to improve your blocking abilities. While block is not that important, on fights with lots of chances to block, these can improve your survivability greatly and have guaranteed uptime.
Active Survivability:
This is what separates good tanks from the rest.
You will always be taking damage during the encounter, which is why there is a healer dedicated to you. However, the damage will come in higher spikes, and you need to use your Defensive Cooldowns to survive it. Having good communication with your healers will also help with this as they also have Defensive Cooldowns that will help you survive.
You should get into the habit of using your cooldowns proactively, because if you died and you still had some available, you messed up.
Fusion of Flesh - This is your get-out-of-jail-free card. This ability will save your ***, but it has a 2min CD, so it won't always be there to save you. Can be used to anticipate heavy damage or after you've sustained heavy damage, it works equally well in both cases.
Power Shield & Protective Shield - These abilities must be used strictly pro-actively or they will be useless. Use these when you anticipate heavy damage (boss spellcasts, add spawns, healer is distracted etc.). The cooldown on Power Shield is very short, so you can often line it up to specifically mitigate one certain mechanic per fight as it will always be available for it (e.g. Searing Breath on Fyragnos[Comet of Ahnket], Rapid Strikes on Lady Envy[Mind of Madness])
Rift Shield - A sizeable shield that can even be thrown on an ally! 25% of you health is a decent shield, but it won’t always save you. It has a short cooldown so don’t be afraid to just use it early and often.
Power Variation - a 3s channel that will heal you for 150% of your health. It doesn’t do any healing until 1s into the cast, so you’ll get better results using it proactively. You can also cancel it by using other abilities so be careful.
Impunity - This can’t be used on yourself, but it will save an ally. Some fights have mechanics that specifically require you to use this ability on a specific ally (e.g. Envy’s Focus on Lady Envy[Mind of Madness], Petrifying Gaze on Shockbite[Sea of Ladon])
Devouring Shield - I don’t mention this in the ability list above because this ability is incredibly weak. The only thing of merit is that it increases your shield cap by 10% for its duration.
Item Abilities - Some trinkets and weapons/shield have active abilities attached to them. Use them with your natural cooldowns to boost your survivability even more.
Creative use of mechanics - Abilities can increase your survivability even if they don’t specifically say so. If an enemy is stunnable, Shock will effectively give you 5s of no damage taken, which is amazing. Impunity can also be used on another tank (in an encounter that doesn’t specifically require it!) to give them another amazing cooldown.
Healers - Tank healers have defensive abilities too, so if you can’t keep yourself alive with your abilities, talk with them to coordinate their use of their abilities. Be nice to them or they’ll let you die on purpose!
Putting It All Together:
Get comfortable with your threat generating rotation (both versions are quite simple) so you can generate threat without having to think about it much. This allows you to focus on surviving the fight. Know where all of your cooldowns are so you can use them quickly and intelligently.
Opener:
Use Reckless Strike and Spark to quickly generate significant threat on a single target.
Your AOE threat requires more effort as Tempest and Ragestorm are melee only. Void Summon can grab enemies from far away and allow you to quickly use Tempest on them. Unstable Reaction can also be used, but be careful as it takes a moment to generate enough threat to make an enemy attack you. Liberal use of taunts is incredibly effective here.
Aggressive Block generates very little threat, so do NOT use it until you are sure you have threat.
Interacting With Other Tanks:
Once you can maintain enough threat to keep enemies away from your healers and DPS, you need to learn how to play nice with other tanks.
Many fights require multiple tanks as the boss will apply a debuff to one tank making it take increased damage, so the other tank will need to taunt the boss away from that tank.
As all tanks will be trying to generate threat, it is important to know which enemies should be attack which tanks, or one tank can easily die. This is very contextual to the specific fight, but being communicative is very important in multi-tank encounters.
Macros:
ST builder:
This will just cast a basic builder as long as the target is within 30m of you.
Rift Shield:
Lets you quickly cast Rift Shield on an ally or yourself.
Impunity:
Lets you quickly cast Impunity on an ally.
Power Variation:
Forces Power Variation to heal you instead of doing one of its other effects.
FAQ:
Why don’t you mention some abilities you have available?
VK has many abilities that aren’t useful. (Reckless Strike is better than Discharge, and Ragestorm is better than Void Storm) The additional abilities from Paladin are also not particularly useful and Interfere shares a cooldown with Spark so it isn’t useable.
How do I get better at tanking?
Practice and game knowledge. Tanking is by far the most mechanically-simple role, but requires the most situationally knowledge. Good tanks know the game well and have learned when their abilities are best used. You’ll want to tank expert dungeons, raid rifts, raids your guild has already cleared. Ask the people who have already tanked those encounters for help and you will start to learn the game from a tanking perspective.
Everyone is yelling about how bad a tank I am, what do I do?
A bad tank is much more impactful than a bad DPSer, so if you mess up everyone will notice. You can ignore the yelling, or only tank with friends, to get through the hard parts. It’ll only get easier.
I died. Is it my fault or my healer’s fault?
Both, but assigning blame is useless. Just work on doing better the next time. You both have ways of keeping you alive. It is very rare that both of your resources are completely spent when the tank dies. If you had more cooldowns you could have used, use them the next pull. Same goes for the healer.
Conclusion:
Tanking is very different from the other roles, and will take longer to learn. It can be challenging but if you chose to be a Warrior you probably had some interest in tanking, so it’s time to learn.
As always, constructive feedback is always appreciated.
If you have any questions, you can ask them here or find me in-game.

Eh? Thoughts? Just mostly curious.. I know this issue has come up a few times in a past on what is legal vs illegal on the Trion Stance!

Then you haven't seen the WoW 60 box player. Noted player Swifty has taken him on with his own raid and has run with him to kill the King of Stormwind.
My understanding is those keys are broadcast to each account via one keyboard through software or hardware. The numbers don't matter what does is how much your hardware can handle. What makes it boxing is that toons don't act independent of the player at the keyboard.
I sometimes dual box in open world, sometimes three box (but that pushes my system). I can run identical souls and they'll cast the same spells. Or I could set it up via macros and keyboard assignments, to cast different spells.
With an app such as Isboxer, the main key that make it work are follow and assist. These will give a leader and followers. The assist will target the leader and cast spells to the target's target.
And since Trion nerfed follow in warfronts and ia's, you should see much in the was of boxing there, unless the setup is broadcast to all accounts. But that's rather unwieldy.
As to wether this particular player is botting, I would suspect otherwise.

Summerfest weapon not showing up in the Rift store; and "accidental purchases.
Last year I saved up 6 necklaces and many merit badges. The day after summerfest I carefully decided that there was not an upgrade for me so I might as well blow my credits on a cosmetic outfits, and a cosmetic staff. I bought more with credits too.
I don't read the forums a lot - am a somewhat of a casual gamer, so missed the talk about the summerfest staff being missing at the world event store.
Now, this is embarrassing - but that staff is a huge upgrade from my Frenetic Great Staff. In short, I really need this weapon! I don't raid much and could really use the boost.
Here is the kicker -- Now I have 6 more necklaces that I have earned, and I was looking at the selections when I notice the weapon for 12 necklaces. Ahhh! I would have waited and bought my summerfest clothes with my credits. Ugh, I can't tell you the frustration!
But here is the kicker: I was told I have 72 hours return on "accidental purchases". But wait...
If there is a bug, wouldn't that be an "uninformed purchase" --just because the item I wanted was not available yet due to error?
My other issue is -- why would I ask for a refund within 72 hours, when the weapon was put up days after my purchases?. Pretty sure there is no winning on this one. lol.
Seem silly, yes I know, but this has me really upset. :P Not just because my weapon is horrible, or it would be an act of mercy to replace it, no. (hah) but because I felt that I was not really heard by the staff. The guy on chat even thanked me for playing "archeage". I told him I haven't tried it.
So my question is:
When the Rift team has a technical issue, and you buy something "lesser" than what you wanted due to their error -- should this be considered an "accidental purchase"?
Thanks for listening!!

Rift gleicht einem Fabrikarbeitswerk
Vorweg ich werde mir nicht die Mühe machen meinen Text ins englische zu übersetzen. Sorry, für alle die es nicht verstehen Google-Übersetzer macht es möglich den Text bei Interesse zu übersetzen.
Ich spiele bereits einige Jahre Rift und habe das auch lange sehr gerne.
Jedoch mit ein bisschen Abstand betrachtet verkommt das Spiel immer mehr der Routine. Wer Ausrüstung haben möchte strengt sich also an jede Woche die Weeklys abzuschließen, damit man Marken bekommt. Rennt in immer wieder die gleichen Raids, um Marken & Ausrüstung zu bekommen. Macht jeden Tag seine Handwerksquests, na …... genau um Marken zu bekommen etc.
Viele Menschen möchten in einem RPGMMO dem Alltag entfliehen. Spaß und Spannung haben und nicht weiter der Routine ausgesetzt sein. Doch mit der Zeit ist man genau das.
Und so freut man sich auf die großen Festevents. Und was kommt, die gleichen Events jedes Jahr. Bisschen Koordinaten geändert, andere Belohnungen. Maximal ein Highlight, dass wirklich neu ist. Aber letztlich seit Jahren das gleiche. Also unterbrechen selbst diese nicht die Routine.
Zumindest die Reittiere in allen möglichen Farben neu in den Shop zu bringen wurde verändert. Ich hoffe das bleibt so. Denn wer braucht schon 8x das gleiche Reittier nur in anderen Farben. Lasst sie einfärben und gut ist.
Diese führt nun dazu, dass es als Pflicht erledigt werden „muss“, weshalb durch die Experts gerannt wird. Was absolut nicht Spieleinsteigerfreundlich ist. Hast Du nicht eine bestimmte Hit-Anzahl, dann brauchst Du Dich gar nicht melden.
Von der Pvp Ungleichheit möchte ich gar nicht erst anfangen, darüber ist hier schon mehr als genug diskutiert worden. Worauf das Fazit nur ist, nerf den und die und am Besten alle Klassen.
Damit steigt die Unzufriedenheit der Spieler und das Untereinander der Community leidet schrecklich darunter. So bekommen Spieler, die Fragen im Worldchat schreiben oftmals nur die „blöde“ Antwort an den Kopf geknallt: „Frag Google“.
Rift hat viele tolle Elemente. So z.B. ein Handwerkssystem mit dem man im Spiel auch noch was anfangen kann, Dimensionsbau, Artefakte sammeln, Gadrobe etc.
Abgesehen davon, obwohl es so viele Rollenmöglichkeiten gibt, leidet die Individualität, denn wenn Du Deine Rolle nicht wie bei der Gildenseite xyz vorgegeben spielst, dann leidet Dein Schaden und Du bist ein schlechter Spieler.
Also kann ich pro Charakter ca. 10 Rollen spielen, jedoch spiele ich sie wie jeder andere. Wo ist da die Besonderheit?
Mal abgesehen davon, dass es jede Menge Zeit braucht sich die ganzen Foren durchzulesen und die Rollen zu üben, anfertigen von Makros etc.
Dann bist Du stolz, dass Deine Rolle derzeit Platz 1 belegt und dann kann es sein, dass sie mit dem nächsten Addon nicht mehr spielbar ist, weil sie total veraltet ist.
Also hechelt man immer wieder den neuen Skills der neuen Rollen hinterher. Stress und Frust macht sich breit.
Ich kam mir in den letzten Monaten jedoch nur noch wie ein Fabrikarbeiter vor, der am Fließband arbeitet. Jede Woche das gleiche. Abarbeiten der Quests, die mir die Marken für meine Ausrüstung geben. Und wenn ich Twinks spielen möchte, dann das gleiche mehrfach. Denn die Marken von meinem Main, die er nicht mehr brauchte, konnte ich leider nicht übertragen.
Fließbandarbeit macht auf Dauer krank. Sie stresst, sie macht mürrisch und unzufrieden.
Ich glaube mit der Art und Weise kann man Spieler nicht wirklich über Jahre beständig an ein Spiel fesseln.
Und so sitze ich vor dem PC und überlege Rift zu starten. Und dann wieder: „Och ne, nicht schon wieder den Marken hinterher hecheln und der gleiche Trott. Da mache ich doch lieber was anderes“.
Soviel dazu von meiner Seite. Vielleicht macht sich ja tatsächlich einer des Communityteam die Mühe meinen Text zu übersetzen und vielleicht gibt es einen kleinen Gedankenanstoß für die Zukunft von Rift (ich bezweifle es allerdings sehr).
Euch auf jeden Fall viel Spaß bei Rift.

best trash pvp ever
GG,
PVP was so boring, now with the quest its just so ridiculus.
people try just to kill kill kill
no pvp gear ( just a weapon GG, not so hard to design and create some stuff?)
i have a question? why did u create new BG? nobody plays in BG its like an arena, everybody dont care about common goal.
and Trion will say" we dont understand why people leaves the game......"
best trash pvp ever
Bugreport: Arisen Arak - Shadow of C’zyth
Shadow of C’zyth is still not working proberly. Even after the hotfix #4 http://ift.tt/2aoHCjD
Following issues are happening:
First at all the positioning is off and the mini is flying in the air.
After/while implosion the raid only gets the debuff "Amplified Gravity", only the person which is closest to the mini gets affected by "Inversion"; also "Crushing Void" seems non existant.
Beside to that the boss sometimes casts "Wrath of C'zyth" while implosion is going on.
"Weight of Worlds" doesn´t seem to be casted at all.
When you take a look into that please make sure that all 4 mechanics are happening: Implosion, Inquisition, Wrath of C'zyth & Weight of Worlds. Once the implosion debuffs are working proberly it will be nearly impossible to kill the mini, if it only casts implosion over and over again.

WoW Legion, the best thing that happen to RIFT....
I'm sure many of you know WoW gets a new expansion called Legion and they already installed the pre-patch on live sever. WoW is so dumbed down now that it has nothing in common with Wrath of the Lich King(the expansion that had the highest numbers of subscriptions)
Rift launched as WoW killer. It was a WoTLK clone with some extras and of course it didn't work. Since then a lot has changed and WoW turned into a joke and Rift remained a WoTLK clone(I consider this a good thing).
I found my old lv50 character and started to level up and I like it a lot. The game is still complex, gear matters and it's not face rolling to max lv. I'm not sure about max lv raids but the dungeons I remember to be harder than WoW and that's a good thing.
Trion should probably remind players that RIFT is still a WoTLK style MMORPG. There are probably millions of potential players that quit after WoTLK/Cataclism. What do they have to lose, the game is free and they can try it.
