Today, RIFT 1.6.1 Hotfix #8 was implemented on all US and EU shards. Many raid encounters saw some changes and several bug fixes were also pushed through.
The duel radius (the distance you can move before exiting a duel area) has been tripled!
All critters in Meridian and Sanctum are now unable to be targeted by hostile player effects - and should no longer cause duels to be cancelled if they get caught in an AoE.
HAMMERKNELL
Runeburst Umbral's Torment ability no longer pulls players into the center of the effect. The time between damage ticks has been increased and the total duration of the effect reduced.
Estrode: Reduced Estrode's health. Increased the number of Binding Will targets from two to three.
Rune King Molinar: Forgotten Stewards have gained a newfound sense of fortitude, and can no longer be killed by Ascended. Luckily, they're still able to sacrifice themselves if so inclined!
Rune King Molinar: Runic Feedback is slightly more forgiving at the start of the effect.
Terror Bombardment is now interruptible.
RISE OF THE PHOENIX
General Silgen's bombs now have 4 seconds in which to be dispelled.
Beruhast will only summon 2 Flaming Vortices at 20% health, rather than 3.
The Gate Keeper achievement should be granted more consistently.
UI/SETTINGS
Sped up the rendering of the main world map UI.

Magelo Sync has been updated ! To compensate for the somewhat long downtime, we have granted all our Rift premium users 2 extra days.
