• PTS Update + Datamining 5th Nov 2014. A new 1.63GB update hit the Public Test Shard today. Trion has added auto-re-buffing when changing mentor levels and there’s a new cape datamined. Dummy Foundry has also been updated with Level 65 and 67 dummies. Check them out here.

• Quest Achievement Adjustment. A few quests were removed right before the launch of Nightmare Tide but the quest-completed achievements weren’t updated to reflect these changes. Dead Simon will be reducing the amount of quests needed to complete Plane of Water zone-completion achievements in next week’s hotfix. [r] Changes will automatically be applied so if you meet the new requirements you should get the achievement/s. [r]

• Thinking Out of the Box Achievement Adjustment. The ‘Thinking Out of the Box” achievement founder under Achievements -> Zones -> RIFT: Nightmare Tide -> Tarken Glacier relates to the Tarken Glacier puzzle and beating the AI with only one square lost. Dead Simon has gone over the data and it looks like only 7 players have gotten the achievement thus far. He has decided to make the achievement easier to obtain by making it so that you get the achievement if you win with the AI opponent only possessing two squares or less. [r]
