I really wonder what’s wrong with people sometimes. What ever happened to decency? Morals? Honor? Credibility? Self-Respect? Chivalry? It seems like people have forgotten these things. These are what make us human and separate us from animals. I’m just shocked at how low people have become and it’s really sad.

Trion live streamed a level 60 world boss for all to see. It looks extraordinary.

It’s almost two weeks away for a potential 1.9 release and to get you prepped on what to expect, Trion have released a little update for 1.9 on their website and went over some of the key features that 1.9 will contain.

Maelforge and Laethys are dead, and with the Blood Storm on the run, the Ascended have splintered over philosophical differences. Three groups have risen among these mighty immortals, and their inter-dimensional war has come to a head in a battle that rages across realities.

Conquest

Three factions wage an inter-dimensional war across an alternate-reality Stillmoor. Fight to control the Sourcestone Extractors as you earn new bonuses that persist after the battle ends. Player-killers, monster-slayers, and crafters all have a role to play!

Barbershop

Change your hair, your face, your height — almost everything about your appearance with a quick visit to a Stylist.

Mentoring

Progress at your level while playing alongside your lower-level friends! Mentoring allows you to play through lower-level content without sacrificing the XP, Planar Attunement, and other rewards due to an Ascended of your experience.

Instant Adventure: Silverwood, Freemarch, Gloamwood, and Stonefield

Instant Adventure has come to four more zones! Level up a new or existing character with relentless action and endless rewards at the click of a button. Level down with Mentoring and join new recruits where your high-level character first made his bones!

New Sliver: Primeval Feast

Fae Lord Twyl has defeated Greenscale in this brutal new Sliver. Bring nine friends and slay the weather-warping maniac before he breaks through into our reality.

Chat now global

Catch up with friends and allies, no matter which shard they’re on.

New World Event: Summerfest

The Ascended welcome a glorious summer with fishing, cook-outs, scavenger hunts, and more while the Swarm Lord and his biting insects set upon unsuspecting heroes in the latest zone event. Join new Scavenger Hunts that feature riddles and challenges throughout Telara for great rewards!

Elrar announced earlier today that Rift: Storm Legion is a new expansion that Trion will be releasing for us later in the year. The long awaited news we’ve been speculating on is finally here!

According to Rift’s Official Portal for Storm Legion, we will see the following new features made available:

New World

• Two huge new continents
• New epic stories
• Tempest Bay, a new stronghold for Guardians and Defiants–No more running around Sanctum or Dueling in Meridian!

New Level Cap & 4 More Souls

• Each calling will have a new soul available; This will definitely make it interesting to come up with new specs, this excites me the most!
• Level however you want whether it’s through questing, instant adventures, onslaughts, rifts, events and more

New Awesome Content

• 7 new dungeons, 3 raids, a Chronicle and more will be available
• Join the Hunt: Rift Rift gameplay to fight against challenging planar bosses
• Fight against new creatures including a Colossus that interacts with the world

And of course.. the best for last!

Make Telara Your Own

• New customizable spaces that will allow players and guilds have their own sliver of Telera
• New Grandmaster Crafting
• New Capes that will utilize a technology called Shroud™ to allow the capes to flow and hang like “real cloth.”
• New puzzles, artifacts, achievements, mounts, pets, titles and many more!

The one thing I am hoping that they’re just bottling away is the Barbershop.

MMO-Champ just reported on Star Wars having a free unlimited trial to level 15

World of Warcraft and Rift do this so they are only keeping up with them. BUT I still think ToR is headed towards F2P. It just doesn’t have enough to keep people especially for subs and it has way too many problems that still exist 6 months later. Some people might disagree with me and thats fine but we’ll see at the one year mark what happens.
