Hello Ascended!

Are you ready to welcome back your feathered friends? We sure hope you are because the Budgies are back!

Starting today, complete special daily quests to earn Chaos Motes, which can be exchanged for some great mounts and rewards!

You can find the quest givers in Meridian (/setwaypoint 6122 5231), Sanctum (/setwaypoint 7380 3078), and Tempest Bay (/setwaypoint 12943 11579)!

If you’re heading to the race, here are a few tips and tricks:

✨ Stay within the marked path.
🐦 Hit all the white checkpoints throughout the race.
🚀 Use all the green boosts to increase your speed and leave your opponents behind!
🐌 If you prefer speed over slow, avoid all orange traps!

Remember, a clear mind makes the goal clear. Stay focused, and you too can win the race, Ascended!



Budgie Madness will end on April 14, 2024, so hurry up and collect as many of those feathered cuties as you can!

Hello Ascended!

Lightning can be heard reverberating throughout Telara, and the Mechs are back, causing the earth to tremble and creating mayhem wherever they set their gaze! Will you help defend Telara from these bulky armored enemies?

That’s exactly what we thought, Ascended. Sharpen your sword and your senses and strike back now! Starting today, take the siege to the Mechs for a chance to earn great rewards!

Head over to Sanctum (/setwaypoint 7380 3077), Meridian (/setwaypoint 6124 5231), or Tempest Bay (/setwaypoint 12944 11579) to accept Daily Quests and join Warfronts. Use the Looking For Group (LFG) tool to participate in Expert Dungeons, collect Mech Components, or join the zone event!

Completing all the daily quests will reward you with a total of 65 Chaos Motes per character every day!

The quest Defender of the Elements will take you to Vostigar Peaks, Silverwood, Freemarch, Shimmersand, and Stillmoor on a mission to defeat fearsome Mechs.

Stay sharp and bring your allies, Ascended; you may need them now more than ever!



Head over to the RIFT Store to get rewards for Credits or use your collected Chaos Motes at the event NPC to redeem amazing mounts, rewards, pets, and much more!



Now is the time to strike, Ascended. Mechs will strike on March 14, 2025, and will retreat on March 17, 2025; be sure to keep them at bay until then before they wreak too much havoc!

See you in-game,
Your RIFT team!
