Imagine a version of Telara bearing the name YOU chose! The RIFT Dev team is thrilled to have our players participate in naming our very first Prime server.Our guidelines are simple:

  • The name should be in keeping with the world of Telara… that’s a wide open field!
  • RIFT is T for Teen. Don’t be vulgar.
  • Servey McServerface is RIGHT out.

Please suggest names on this forum thread.

  • We will close submissions on Sunday, Feb 25, 2018.
  • The Dev team will choose the five best suggestions and create a poll that is linked to forums, Facebook and Twitter.
  • The poll will run from noon, Feb 26 to midnight, Feb 28th, Pacific time.
  • We’ll announce the RIFT Prime server name on the RIFT Livestream on Friday, March 2nd at 11:30 AM PT (19:30 UTC):

What is RIFT Prime?

Main article: RIFT Prime Launch Blog

RIFT Prime is a progression server, meaning that the server begins with content and level caps restricted to that of the original RIFT launch, then gradually unlocks additional content and expands the level cap over time. This allows RIFT Prime players to experience each set of content from RIFT’s history in sequence.

RIFT Prime will not be an exact copy of launch RIFT, and certain features that were added to RIFT to expand gameplay or improve quality of life will be available from day one. These include: Dimensions, Looking for Group, Looking for Raid, current Warfronts, and Wardrobes.

 

How is the RIFT Prime server different from the RIFT live servers?

While RIFT is a free-to-play game, the RIFT Prime server is an exclusive server that requires RIFT Patron status to access.

The RIFT Prime server features a limited in-game credit shop that only contains cosmetic and service items. Expansion unlocks and add-on content – such as souls or equipment slots – are included as part of RIFT Prime server access for all players on the server.

Some features and content from RIFT’s live servers are unavailable on RIFT Prime, including Minions, Instant Adventures, and the Primalist Calling.

RIFT Prime characters will be automatically level restricted to the level of the open-world zone they’re in. While characters that are over-levelled for the zone will still possess a slight advantage due to additional skills and equipment scaling, they won’t be able to show up and trivialize world event content. In exchange, the experience and event rewards gained while adventuring in these auto-mentored situations will remain relevant to the character’s normal level.

 

How do I access RIFT Prime? What is RIFT Patron?

To access the RIFT Prime server you will need RIFT Patron status on your account. You can purchase a Patron subscription here or purchase a Patron Pass in-game. You can also buy Patron status with in-game currency using Rex. In addition to Prime access, RIFT Patron status also grants you additional bonuses and rewards on RIFT live servers!

If you already have RIFT Patron status, RIFT Prime server access is automatically included with no additional purchases or changes necessary.

 

What happens to my RIFT Prime server access if my Patron status ends?

You will be unable to log in to the RIFT Prime server. Your RIFT Prime characters will be saved and can be accessed should you obtain Patron status again in the future.

 

What type of optional purchases are available on the RIFT Prime server?

RIFT Prime possesses a limited in-game credit shop that features cosmetic items (mounts, companion pets, dyes, warfront announcers, costumes, etc) as well as a small number of services (Name Change Scrolls, Guild Rally Banners, etc). There will be no lockboxes or equipment offered in the store.

 

Can I play on both the RIFT Prime server and RIFT live servers with the same account?

Your account works for all RIFT servers, though the two server types are separate. Items are not shared between servers and players cannot transfer characters between the two. Account-wide unlocks obtained on RIFT live servers are not accessible on the RIFT Prime server.

 

Can I use my RIFT live server characters on the RIFT Prime server, or vice versa?

RIFT live server characters cannot access or be transferred to the RIFT Prime server. Characters created on the RIFT Prime server cannot be accessed or transferred to RIFT live servers during the progression of the RIFT Prime server.

 

Can I use my existing Credits on RIFT Prime?

No. RIFT Prime uses its own currency known as Prime Credits which can be purchased from the RIFT Prime in-game or web stores. Prime Credits can only be used on RIFT Prime.

Will the RIFT Prime server remain open once progression ends?

No. Some time after progression ends, the RIFT Prime server will be closed.

 

What happens to my characters and Prime Credits when the RIFT Prime server closes?

RIFT Prime characters can transfer to RIFT live servers at the end of the Prime server’s content schedule. We intend this server to run for at least a year of progression, so there’s no rush. There will be absolutely no charge for this service.

We’ll provide additional details in coming months on how features gained on the Prime server will combine with features on your live server (such as unlocking something on Prime that is normally an account-wide unlock on Live). Stay tuned for details as we work them out!

Your remaining Prime Credits will be transferred to your normal RIFT Credit balance.

[edited 02/21/18 for clarity]

What happens if I have an active Patron subscription when the RIFT Prime server closes? Will I be refunded for the remaining time?

No, but you will continue to receive RIFT live server Patron benefits and be able to enjoy them with your newly transferred RIFT Prime character.

 

Still have questions? Watch our Livestreams, forums and social media for more information!

You can also post to our RIFT Prime forum thread, already underway.

Go Back to Where It All Began! A brand new type of server is coming to RIFT on March 7. Are you ready to take a journey through RIFT’s history?

Over the years, nostalgia begins to waft its siren’s call, and we start to long for the good old days, when life was new and all possibilities lay before us. The RIFT Prime service is here to answer that call! We first started talking about a new server type in 2017, and formally announced RIFT Prime in this Development Letter.

The first Prime server will return us to the launch of RIFT, when the level cap was 50 and all of the great Dragons awaited. Over time, we will unlock new content and levels together!

There are no boosts, no supply crates, no equipment, no bags on the RIFT Prime in-game store for credits; they will be offered for in-game currency. This is the world of RIFT before Free-to-Play!

The RIFT Primogenitor Pack

We know some of you want the edge on Prime access. Get your account flagged ahead of time and ready to roll out on March 7th!

Available on the RIFT Web Store at $29.99, the RIFT Primogenitor Pack contains:

  • 30 days of Patron access for the purchaser
  • 2 voucher codes for 15 days of Patron access each (30 days total). Invite your friends to play, apply it to your alts or use the time yourself!
  • A mount out of the ordinary: Armored White War Tiger
  • A title exclusive to Prime players: Primogenitor
  • Cloak of the Void
  • A new Prime portrait frame

 

RIFT Prime is a Patron-only feature. If you have Patron status via recurring subscription, buy it with REX or receive a limited-time Patron pass, you can access Prime and Live.

At the end of the Prime server’s cycle (not yet determined), you will be able to transfer your Prime character to a Live server.

We are sure you have a LOT of questions, and most of them should be covered in our RIFT Prime FAQ!

If not, post your questions to the RIFT Prime forum thread.

 

Be sure to join us on this Friday’s RIFTstream, where we will talk about all things Prime, including many of the questions you have!

Friday, February 23, 11:30 AM PT (19:30 UTC) – we will simulcast on Twitch, Facebook and Twitter.
Travel back in time with us and begin your journey.

We can hardly wait to greet you there!

~The RIFT team

The Glory that is RIFT!
