RIFT 2.0 Hotfix #4 Patch Notes

GENERAL
  • Thank you to our awesome players who have been sending their feedback and submitting issues! This patch has a pile of updates to quests, events, and crafting that you've been reporting.
  • Rested experience is now granted more consistently and should no longer be mysteriously absent for some characters.
  • Loot below the loot rarity threshhold of the group will now go back to round-robin looting unless the group is explicitly set to Free-for-All.
  • Merchants that sell recipes will now hide recipes that you have already learned. They will also hide recipes you can't use based on your existing crafting skills, as all recipes are Bind on Pickup.
  • Quests that complete automatically now wait to grant their experience and cash rewards until you click the Finish button in the quest popup, so it's more obvious when these are granted!
  • Fixed a bug that caused upgraded items to not be properly unequipped while upgrading it.


NEW USER EXPERIENCE UPDATES
  • Soul abilities that have ranks will now be automagically upgraded when you level up, removing the need to return to a trainer and purchase new ranks. Existing abilities will be raised to your level-appropriate rank on login, and when they are unlocked in the Soul Tree.
  • Soul Walking now displays the countdown time on the casting bar UI to make it more visible!
  • While Soul Walking you now also see an aggro radius indicator around aggressive NPCs.
  • The starting zones of Terminus and Mathosia have received some updates to make them a bit more streamlined and new-player friendly.
  • In particular, many NPCs are no longer aggressive or have smaller aggro radii.
  • Starting locations have been adjusted so you're not so far in the back of the initial buildings.
  • Tweaked the final Rift quests for better flow from killing the final boss to viewing the cinematic and being transported to Silverwood or Freemarch.
