PTS Update for 11th January 2015

PTS Update General Feature Image

RIFT’s Public Test Shard (‘PTS’) received an approx. 86MB update on the 11th of January with some very small additions.

Patch version is TEST-301-12-A-972286

Summary:

  • Archlight Promo Week Achievements

As always, everything below is subject to change prior to hitting Live and some things included below may never make it to Live release.

Remember those two placeholder achievements that were briefly on Live? They’ve been updated with the new upcoming lockbox, icons have changed and the ‘hover bike’ mount now has a proper name: Archlight Rider mount. Or is it Arclight? (the lockbox says Arclight but the achieve says Archlight).

Previously datamined rig and possible skin are below:

Possible Hover Bike Mount Skin Dec 2014

Possible Archlight Rider Mount Skin Dec 2014

I wasn’t able to find any of the quests, but they sound like they’ll be similar to the Budgie Madness Promo Week racing quests where you follow a set path and complete the track for the quest.

If the Archlight Promo Week is anything like the other Promo Weeks, you’ll probably get some form of event currency that you can build up over several Promo Weeks to purchase a mount from the PRI Quartermaster. As such, there could potentially be two versions of the Archlight Rider – one from lockbox and the other from PRI Quartermaster, like all previous Promo Weeks.

Look forward to an Archlight Promo Week at some point in the future!


Not much readily visible with this update. The Chronicle: Rhen of Fate is still not accessible.
