Trion Issues Rift Prime Challenges As A Raid Dev Leaves The Company
Trion Worlds is challenging Rift Prime players with several sets of tasks to complete over the next month, with titles being offered as rewards. You can close 120 rifts -- 20 of each elemental type -- for the "Planar Protector" title; win 30 Warfronts and gain 30,000 Favor for the "Primus" title; or craft three Master Craftsman Marks for the "Prime Artisan" title. Players have until July 20 to complete these three goals.
Meanwhile, the Trion dev team got a little smaller recently, with the departure of Richard "Icarus" Byon from the raid team. Trion confirmed the news on the forums, and posts from players around the official word seemed to indicate that Icarus was pretty well-regarded. That's surprising in the MMO world, where seemingly everyone gets mad at "lazy devs," so here's hoping Byon lands on his feet and finds another group of players to sing his praises. Just don't fly too close to the sun, son.
