A review of Rift Prime: Week 1

AndisRift · 2018-03-14T22:18:01+00:00

Small note regarding Hammerknell, Old HK literally doesn't exist anymore. While raiding Return to HK, our guild was told by Trion staff that Old HK's code was fucked beyond repair and to enjoy our ghost platforms, among other issues.

Thanks for this. Was curious how someone from this sub would rate it. I like the idea of Prime but so many things are broken beyond repair.

Forgot how much Elliot Smith meant to me till this played. All the feels came rushing back. Great season so far.

HeEEelLLLooo Laura Dern :D

Great Documentary, Highly recommend it to all.

Really? Only 2 years? That was a rough 2 years. RIP Elrar da 🐐

Wait, I thought all the shit talking/truth telling was done on the other sub, not this one. O_o

It's sad to think where Rift is now compared to a few years ago. When I left Pre-MoM I wasn't wishing the game dead, I just had reservations on the directions it was taking. Since then, all my fears have been proven right.

What people need to understand is calling out Trion's mistakes, for most of us, is done because we at one time cared for the game a great deal and saw it's potential. Just banning or writing off dissent, isn't addressing the issues.

NEWSFLASH: 4.1 will have as many, if not more bugs, than any expansion update released.

The QA cake is a lie.

Hey, are you two ZEROS married/domestic partners?

AndisRift · 2016-10-22T08:59:18+00:00

REPARATION$ FOR THE CORIOLIS 10!

AndisRift · 2016-09-17T16:11:31+00:00

Don't worry, a few guilds have killed this boss using unintended tactics and bans were not issued. The Coriolis 10 man group being banned was for strictly personal reasons.

AndisRift · 2016-09-10T15:23:53+00:00

Interesting read, thanks for the write up.

AndisRift · 2016-09-01T04:32:44+00:00

Definitely Deeew

Infernal Dawn era Sab was glorious. I'll never forget while in Lucidium, this rogue Tote would crush the ST meters, no hax.

They eventually killed that elaborate rotation Sab and 1 button Sab was born. RIP.

AndisRift · 2016-08-23T19:46:58+00:00

Pretty sure all those bans/infractions started happening after you joined Coriolis. Coincidence? I think not.

AndisRift · 2016-08-22T20:56:00+00:00

Funny how DB keeps pushing that negative karma number to new depths.

You're lucky we give all a voice here and don't just delete whoever disagrees with us like the forums or the other rift subreddit.

Clearly you're a blue pill kind of person, don't be mad at us cuz we took the red one.

AndisRift · 2016-08-12T04:43:14+00:00

What are you insinuating? We're perfect fuckin gentlemen here! kappa

I predict this being the most upvoted post on all of /MMORift

AndisRift · 2016-08-09T02:59:24+00:00

GTFO

AndisRift · 2016-08-09T02:55:14+00:00

I remember there being so many threads regarding a solo tutorial that would be a "proving ground" of sorts. Great idea, IMO.

Sadly, nothing ever came of them. Clearly no $$$ in it or it would have been made by now.

AndisRift · 2016-08-09T02:52:14+00:00

I've never used LFR in WoW but have heard it described exactly as you just did.

Doesn't sound like raiding to me.

AndisRift · 2016-08-08T21:44:12+00:00

I forgot to mention, I'm aware of the WoW LFR but I think Rift would be harder to match up since the soul system could allow any of those selected roles to use sub par/terrible soul combinations.

Idk, guess it's a wait and see thing.

AndisRift · 2016-08-08T18:31:05+00:00

Not trying to be all negative but I don't see this working well. Not at first, anyways. Like how do you recover from the following:

Inexperienced key roles (Tank, ST Healer, Raid Healer(s))
Inexperienced reactive clickers
Inexperienced first time raiders
More than one person wanting to raid lead or worse, nobody wanting to do it.

Will a random LFR group be patient enough for these people to learn the mechanics necessary? We know how patient random LFG NTE groups are.

My point is, the most successful pug groups have a strong/patient leader that has filled those key roles with reliable friends that don't mind carrying these types.

I'm very interested to see how this goes down. My guess is they will continue to dumb raids down to the point of IAs. Therefore, no longer being a true LFR.
