RIFT news » Carnival of the Ascended! 03/15-04/05

RIFT turns 7 this year, and the Carnival folk are ready to celebrate with you!

Seven years has flown by in the blink of an eye – let’s mark the occasion with all of our traditional Carnival events in Tempest Bay. We welcome all Live server players to grab a piece of 7 Year birthday cake and join the celebrations!
Wait up, say Prime server players… Tempest Bay? We haven’t found Tempest Bay yet! Ahhh, very true, though you’ve clearly heard rumors of the fun going on there, like echoes from a past life. Likewise, a traveling merchant has heard of this new, far off land called Vigil and is even now packing up his mule train to bring you a taste of Carnival! Look for Winachuck Maguck in Sanctum and Meridian. Yes, he has mastered the arcane art of being in two places at once!

Carnival runs from March 15th at 3:30 PM Pacific (22:30 UTC) to April 5th at 3:30 PM Pacific (22:30 UTC).

We are pleased to show off our brand new Carnival items for 2018!

Available for event currency:

• An adorable carousel-style Pegasus companion pet named Celeste!
• Cavort in stylish and colorful carnival-style masks, newly designed for this season
• Feeling bubbly? Apply the new Celebratory or Prismatic weapon rune!
• Feel like throwing around some virtual coin? Use the Golden or Silver rune of Wealth!
• Save some cake for your Dimension – the Primal Rebirthday Cake has unlimited shelf life!
• Earn a new Raid Tier 2 Earring for lvl 70s (RIFT Live only)
• …and of course, the 7th Anniversary Cape!

Available on the RIFT store for credits:

Glorious new Wings of the Archfey – make your own Carnival parade while wearing these beauties!

And without further ado, the mount you’ve all been waiting for… no lockbox, offered direct, fresh from the Plane of Life with a puff of helium…

Greeñata!

Never has Greenscale been more plumpy, soft and loveable than in this unique, floating, mount form.
Best of all, every Telaran race rides Greeñata in a different way. Pictured above, the graceful form assumed by male Dwarves.

Post your #Greeñata pics @RIFTgame, on the forums, or on Facebook!
See you for Carnival!
RIFT ON!
