Where does RIFT stand?

[Dachartach]

Hells yeah. I am still getting lots of cloth from filthy elves and slimy guardians, so I can send those to you and runbreak the boots for shinies. I've got a lot of inferior quest rewards in my bank just taking up room, waiting for me to get another 31 skill points in runecrafting to break them down.

let me showe yu tham. mai pokemons!

Heres where rift stands for me right now.

1. Im set up on the 6 month payment plan

2. I just bought a whole new PC so i can play Rift on ultra.

The game is nearly my dream game. I am a altoholic of the worst degree. when i have the ability to on the fly change my toon to 4 different toons i dont feel the need to make another toon, and respeccing is cheap, i have spent TONS repseccing over and over trying new setups and seeing how they work. its almost like a game in itself to find a spec that meshes with me perfectly. plus i can set up a spec that meshes with a group perfectly so im not a waste of space cause my oddball spec leaves me no good place in a raid or something cause i cant fill any role properly.

That and im having fun and am close to doing something i have never done in any mmo ever. Get to the level cap on one toon without making another toon and leveling them up hardcore.

Go Rift!

I'm super happy with Rift, but things have been crazy-house irl lately so I'm having trouble finding time to log in.

soon...

[Maeve]

Same as Z. I really enjoy the game, although I worry what end game will be like. Luckily, I probably won't make it there anytime soon, if at all.

So busy around here these days, I just haven't found the time to log in either.

Soul mixing keeps both of my toons fresh so far. Mage is 28 or so, and my cleric is in the teens, so I won't hit end game for a long time.

I am surprised how much I am enjoying the warfronts so far. I know some people really dislike them, but they are fun so far. I hope that Trion is actively developing more PvP content though.

I'm loving it. Mostly for the cure for the common alt issue. Depending on my mood, I go back and forth between bard, ranger, and blade dancer. So I'm progressing but not getting bored of the underlying game mechanics (which is what usually does me in). I've only done a few warfronts, but they were fun. I need to do more, but I'm enjoying the quest progression.

[Dachartach]

Just hit 40 earlier today, with no signs of acute boredom setting in yet. There are always more artifact sets to do, and more achievements to get done. Also, I eased over that runecrafting hump and am at about 205 now, constantly getting more materials from rifts and invasions, as well as crappy quest rewards. I think I need to start workin on apothecary some more now, it's lagging a bit behind.


pssst. hey, you. yeah! c'mere. you a cop? no, ok. umm...wanna buy a watch?

Still enjoying the game very much - which is just as well seeing as I signed up for 6 months prior to headstart! Admittedly could still cancel if I wanted I guess, but no need.

I enjoyed the route to 50. I only bothered reading the Storyline quests, and skimmed everything else. The lore is ok, it doesn't grip me in the same way as some other games have, but it's fine.

I've only done about half of the dungeons, and none of the elite ones yet. I hope to rectify that over the next week or so as more people hit 50.

Last night was my first warfront for about 15+ levels. It's not that I dislike them, I was in a hurry to hit 50, and questing yields faster xp - unless you're winning, which was rarely the case (I blame EVERYONE else). The warfronts are ok, probably not as good as WAR - but they can be a fun distraction. Not a big fan of the Codex or Whitefall Steppes - they are slow... which I don't have a problem with, but if you're losing hard, you just want it over with lol. I've only done the Battle for Port Scion once, and was fairly clueless to what was going on to be honest - but it reminded me of the PvP in Praag - which I loved.

I thoroughly enjoy just riding around on my trusty turtle, climbing up mountain sides and being rewarded with a sparkly! Still need loads of Artifacts! Does anyone know if the 110% turtle looks the same as the CE one?

Like most here, I love the mix'n'match Soul building - although haven't tinkered with Jayheem that much. I PvE as a Nec/War and PvP as a Chloro/Dom. Kess on the other hand is a Warrior, and haven't settled on a build for him yet - but he's only 16 - so plenty of time.

If SWTOR was released tomorrow... it would have to be bloody good to pull me away from Rift... but whose to say how we'll all feel in 6 months time. So far Trion have done a great job - they just need to tweak x-server warfront queues so that we only face players from other RP servers and I'll be happy... or just segregate Lotham - either is fine

Getting tired of ze Goons already? ;P
