* When a rift creature is killed, every player has a 5% chance to get a loot item that can include but are not limited to shoulder pads and [[Rift Jewelry|jewelry with special abilities]].
* Butchering rift creatures can occasionally produce rift jewelry or shoulder pads.

* First, a light beacon will appear on a server (one beam per server at one time), 2 real-life days before the rift will open on PvE and 3 real-life hours before opening on PvP. The location is random each time but always in a non-deeded area. This is where the gods will open the rift portal.
* At the same moment the light beacon appears an [https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/198721-patch-notes-12-sep-2023/ unfinished colossus] for each god will be placed north south east and west of the beacon. Parts can be added to these and each part has a chance reward you with rift points and rift materials. Adding parts to any colossus will give you rift sickness. Rift sickness increases difficulty of working on the colossus, but decreases over time. Within the final 12 hours before a rift opens rift sickness is no longer added. Players can work on colossus of gods they do not follow at an increased difficulty. Completing a colossus will create an additional beam of light and an effect will be applied during battle when the rift opens. The three white light gods give a white beam, where Libila will produce a black beam. The effects are as follows: {| class="wikitable"|-! God !! Effect|-| Vynora || [[Excel]]|-| Magranon || [[Mass stamina]] and [[Frantic charge]]|-| Fo || Healing and [[Willowspine]]|-| Libila || Rift enemy spawn count is increased and upon death players do not lose skills other than strength and fight skill.|} * The rift participation area is a 41x41 square centered around the riftlightrift-light. One can check to see whether one is in the participation area or not by using the /rift command. If the rift has not yet started, the number of hours until the rift opens will be displayed.
* Next, when the rift portal actually opens (48 hours after the beacon first appears), it will clear all the trees within its borders and turn all terrain into dirt. It will also spawn a number of traps, rift stones, rift crystals, and rift plants in the rift zone. Terraforming attempts in this area will be blocked until the rift is closed. Additionally, the rift will spawn a rift altar and a wave of deadly [[rift creature|rift creatures]] that will only fight players within the zone.
== Ranking, Rewards ==
*Rifts work off of a points system. Depending on the amount of kills and damage dealt by a player, they can get a higher participation ranking. The rankings range from "minimal" (least impact) to "phenomenal" (most impact). The better the rank, the more rewards attributed to that player. * Rank rewards are automatically placed in each player's inventory at the conclusion a number of the rift, with an occasional reward spawning to inventory after a single, lucky kill. Rank-based rewards include [[shoulder pads]], [[rift jewelry]]points, some rift materials as listed below, and lumps of [[glimmersteel]], [[seryll]], and [[adamantine]]. ** Rift points are redeemable at the [[Rift points shop]] or Lormere Ltd by right-clicking on a mailbox.* Anytime while a rift is still open and active, the player may type the chat command '''/rift''' in order to see the current participation rankings. Attempts to bring up the list outside of the actual rift area while it is still active will not work. After the rift is closed, however, the command can be issued from anywhere on that server in order to view the final ranking list. This will remain possible until the player travels to another server or logs out on that current server.
* Players with more than 60 participation (phenomenal) rank will tend to receive less random lump quality levels and weights. Instead, they will generally receive lump quantities, qualities, and weights based on that rank with much less swing toward randomness.
* Rare items being rewarded generally tends to occur mainly for participants placing 3rd or better at final rank.
* Metallic shoulder pad rewards can come Any player who participated in any at least 10 kills will get a lump of uncommon metal type. * Killing Champion rift creatures gives a slightly higher chance ([[Seryll]], [[Glimmersteel]] or [[Adamantine]]) of random rarity, quality, and weight, at receiving a the rift accessory's close.
* Any player who participated in at least 10 kills will get a lump of uncommon metal Players must be online and on the server when the Rift closes to receive rewards as well as credit for participation (per "Destination Unknown" [[Seryll]], [[Glimmersteel]] or [[AdamantineJournal]]requirements) of random rarity, quality, and weight, at the rift's close.
== Rift Materials ==
* [[Rift ogre mage]]
* [[Warmaster]]
== Rift Scout Camps ==
Besides the regular recurring rifts, small scout camps can randomly spawn. A rift scout camp is a minimal version of a rift. A few rift creatures spawn in a random place on the server, and after all rift creatures are killed, participants receive a small amount of rift points. Also closing a rift scout camp allows for harvesting Rift Materials like mentioned above.
A rift scout camp does not show a red beacon, and you don't have to sacrifice hearts to close a rift scout camp.
== Additional Notes ==
* When a rift beacon appears, a player may walk through it for the "Rift Investigator" [[achievement]]. When the rift is closed, the player will then receive the "Rift Defender" and "Rifter" [[titles]].
* Rift hearts are of no other use in Wurm aside from burning at the rift altar.
* Rift creatures can only attack players within the rift area. Evacuate the area when in danger!
