Confusion with rifts

in General Discussion
When do the chaos rifts end? In the original post it said they finish on the 25th April but in game it says it ends in 16 days. Can we get some clarification about this?

    Hi @Kabam Lyra !

    The issue here isnt with the quest, or the one you linked. Please look at the announcement thread for the RIFTS versus the time shown in the game. The announcement of Rifts from you guys says April 25th. The timer says 16+ days from this moment, which is leading to the confusion.

    I thought the original confusion was about CHAOS RIFT's end date, i.e. 25th April vs +16 more days to end
    Now, I see this "ends on May 2nd". Why is May 2nd come into picture now? Now I'm more confused by the confusion!..... OMG

    Yes the original post is about when the actual RIFTS end. In that announcement it said the 25th April.

    Weren’t rifts basically useless for the first week of the event? Only T1 reasonably able to be run for the first several days? Or am I imagining that?

    Essentially, but they could be run. I was able to get enough shards from other events for one t2 rift. It wasn't until events hit they became viable. I would just like some clarification on this, as I don't want to think I have extra time to finish EQ and then not be able to run a rift.

    Similar for me. A third T4 is a foregone conclusion. But I’d rather not waste time scraping for a fourth if time will
    expire on me.

    Any official guidance on this?

    Just trying to figure out. How many master rifts did you guys run or can run? I'm trying for 3 runs. Is it possible for 4th run? Just trying to understand what more I need to do.

    Thanks for the clarification Primmer79 and apologies for the confusion! The in-game timer is correct. Both the Infinity Chaos and Chaos Rift will end on May 2.

    Three T4 rifts can be run simply by doing the EQs.

    The fourth requires a combo of shards from events and building shards from Beginner up. You should be able to run four T3 quests—question is whether you can acquire the additional 5K T4 shards needed to hit T4 rift a fourth time. That basically means running the T3 rift a fifth time, if I’m counting correctly.

    Thankyou Dr zola. Appreciate. I'm trying to explore uncollected now. That will give me enough for 3 master rifts. Guillotine is really tough for me this time, not sure if I'll be able to explore. Did complete it. Thankyou once again.

    There's a thread on Guilly on forums, but most of it is simple bickering from the usual suspects. I've got a couple of comments on there that could be helpful for combating Guilly. Main thing is to use her aggressiveness against her with a light intercept. Also keeping her on her side of the screen can be helpful to prolonging your life.

    Good luck.

    I'll try to explore. I'll 1st explore guilly then go backwards. Last month I did explore uncollected. Anyways I just did my 1st master Rift, got 7200 t2a. Don't know if I should be happy or not. But it helped me form a t2a full. And it makes 4 t2a in my inventory. So as I get a better champ he or she goes straight to r4. Guess you need to find positives in life. 😊

    That’s a solid rift result. Probably the best loot chest one in fact, and it’s the only good one I’ve gotten so far (in these or the earlier rifts last year).

    Hold out for a game changing 5* if you can. Game becomes much more fun when you have one.

    If the past is any indication, they will SELL rift shards with 4-5 days remaining so guys can take another pass at them.
  • DrZolaDrZola Member Posts: 9,126 ★★★★★
    @Vdh2008 this is probably true. Question is whether it’s a good value and worth it to roll the RNG die again.

    Is it possible to run more than 2 master rifts and 1 heroic rift?
  • Thecrusher_9756Thecrusher_9756 Member Posts: 772 ★★★
    Yes if you do all the difficulties
