Development and Release History (Rev. 348)

Patch Notes X.32.0.3

Hello Realmers,

We bring news!

POP UP

Starting today, you will be faced with a new pop-up when you enter the game. In it, you can enter an email address of yours where we can contact you with news about the Unity Beta, and even more importantly, access to it! If you do not want to see this window anymore, you can turn it off in the game settings.

This is especially important for the Steam players among you, as we will have to send you additional login information to enable you to play the Unity Beta through Steam.

RIFTS

It was great to finally release this feature and we hope you had a blast! It was fantastic to see so many players, old and new, come into the RIFT and make Season 1 a special time for all. Based on the feedback and data we gathered from this first season we will continue to improve the mode and continue to bring new and exciting RIFTS your way!

Of course, not everything was perfect in this season, and a big part of our work right now is to address as many of those issues in time for the next season. Notable issues were:

• Some of you that are playing through Kongregate were unable to join the season at all. We are looking at this from all angles and will find a solution until next season.
• It turned out that the Tunnel Rat quest was more challenging than we planned. Less than 30% of players logged into RIFTS were able to complete the quest - it was supposed to be a participation reward for the majority of participants. Being impressed with how many of you joined the first RIFT, we want to reward the whole community with the Tier 3 rewards (Mystery ST Chest x1, Chest Coupon x3.) in a free pack that will be available for three days starting tomorrow 10/02/2019 12:00PM UTC.
• Besides those bigger ones, we had a number of other problems (e.g. star requirements for chat, pet skin change FP cost, Ice Cave spawning, etc.) that we are all working on fixing.

Rewards for completing Tunnel Rat and Last Call quest will be sent tomorrow (10/2/2019).

Once we have a new, better version of RIFTS, we will run another similar season with a few small changes. Stay tuned for more info!

New Event this week - PRISMIMIC!

The Prismimic is one of the Crystal Entity’s more promising creations, constructed to cause havoc among surface dwellers. As a skilled illusionist who uses deceptive light reflection to trick victims, its purpose is to study various foes so that it may learn and mimic them. These cunning creatures have started their evaluation with two especially curious dungeon bosses: The rapidly evolving Murderous Megamoth of the Woodland Labyrinth, and the enigmatic hermit Esben residing in the Ice Cave.

What is a Prismimic?

Prismimic is a new Event Boss which will be activated in Dungeons occasionally. It spawns alongside dungeon bosses where the event is running. The fight only begins once players have defeated the real dungeon boss. Once the fight has started, Prismimic will split into two enemies - Attacker and Defender. Each of them will then undergo three transformations as the fight progresses, making it play out differently each time.

Prismimic Attacker Drops:

• Candy-Coated Armor
• Doku No Ken
• Leaf Bow
• Mimicry Trap [NEW]
• Mystery Dye (Accessory)
• Mystery Dye (Clothing)
• Mystery Stat Pot
• Pirate King’s Cutlass

Prismimic Defender Drops:
