PTW artifacts respawning or not?

last day or so I have only found about 2 artifacts when testing in PTW on public test shard, was hoping to do some more testing of the artifact buff/debuff pathway to see if nightmare ones dropped but struggling to find any now? has the respawn rate been dropped?

Retraction of crashes blamed on game

For about three months, my game would crash when I accessed maps/portals. Sometimes right away, other times I could play for awhile or hours before it did it again. I mean serious crashes, it would not only crash the game, but also Windows 8.1 After two or three crashes, the startup on Windows was so corrupted that I couldn't even crank up my computer anymore. Even using Windows self-repair tools wouldn't solve the issues from the crashes. I tested my memory (passed), I replaced/upgraded my video card (still crashed), I replaced/upgraded my power supply (still crashed), I formatted my hard drive and did a clean install (still crashed), I replaced my hard drive with a clean windows install (still crashed), so I blamed the game a bit too often perhaps. After all, it only happened when I played RIFT, so what could I think? I could surf the internet all day and never a problem.

After much angst and thought, I decided to replace my Dell 8500 (early 2012 build) and just get a new computer.

I ordered a new tower from Digital Storm on August 31 after countless hours of online research. They are a bit pricey but these guys really know how to put together a unit, I can testify. Almost went with CyberPower, but after reading the online reviews of issues and horrible customer service, in the end there was only one way to go, and that is with Digital Storm. On September 17 it arrived. Geek Christmas to say the least. Waiting was torture. Came with a free download code for Metal Gear V Phantom Pain, but I haven't downloaded it because that's not my kind of game. Not sure what to do with that... Would have liked a choice in games.

With my new tower, RIFT is like butter on a hot skillet... Smooth as could be..
I can only figure that my motherboard was failing, but heck, I don't care anymore.
I can finally play.
And that's what I wanted.

Bug when dying in Rha'zade Canyon

I was grouped with a friend, and he entered Rha'zade. Needless to say, he died. However, he respawned at the portal in Meridian instead of the nearest graveyard.

What I wound up doing was heading out of Meridian and using /stuck and having him go to me. He was able to be res'ed at that point - at the portal in Meridian.

PTS-->Live and vice versa.

I have recently figured out what was wrong with an error plaguing my ability to jump on the PTS server.
However, now that I have, I find that every time I switch between PTS and live(and vice versa) It is making me re-download approximately 3.1GB(the original installation of the PTS).

What gives?

PTS-->Live and vice versa.

Using minions while dead

Why can't we do this? Trion made it so we can use the Rift store while dead, why not minions? Would be nice if we could collect and send minions while waiting to respawn in wfs or any situation like that where you're dead and just sitting there with nothing to do for a bit.

Trion, the unpopularity of Seastone is NOT because people hate WPvP

I honestly don't think most people hate it. But the reason players switch off of Seastone is all the inconvenience and ******** associated with being perma-flagged.


-If your game crashes in open world content like RRs/NMRs/CRifts, you'll be booted from the mixed party when you log back in (you're tossed into Seastone). Actually happened to me once when I was master looter in a SoL.

-You can't chat with Seastone defiants or add them to your list. If you wanna raid with a Seastone defiant then a non-Seastone guardian raid assistant has to invite you to the party (that's when you see Kitkatkitten yelling at Black Listed in crossevents for an invite to MS).

-You can't invite a defiant into your party, even if you were unflagged. You have to shard hop and THEN unflag.

-Getting a raid together when your core group are Seastoners is generally a pain in the ***. Everyone has to be unflagged and on another shard.

-You join some NTEs flagged and can't be healed or rez'd, and the PvP bug does all kinds of weird **** (it's kinda amusing figuring out how this "PvP" mode works in an NTE, though).


It's this crap that drives people off of Seastone, not the WPvP. WPvP is content. Some people dislike it, some people like it, but it's not why everyone plays on a PvE shard.

If all of these inconveniences are fixed, then people really wouldn't mind playing here. Otherwise, the only reason anybody would stay here is because of a guild.

Oh, and Seastone = Beststone, duh.

Stativ / Stativkopf Kaufberatung Stativ

Guten Abend erstmal :)

Bräuchte mal eure Hilfe bei der Auswahl meines ersten Stativ, hatte vorher nur ein 5€ Müll Ding.

Bin schon länger auf der Suche und komme einfach nicht weiter. :(


Hauptsächlich möchte ich das Stativ um es Abends oder bei Langzeitbelichtungen zu benutzen bzw ab und zu für Pflanzen Fotos.
Deswegen denke ich auch das mir ein ziemlich kleines reicht und ich eins für immer dabei suche.

Habe mir das CT-4A bestellt um es mal zum testen hauptsächlich als mini Stativ.
Und das große für den Kofferraum irgendwann.

Dachte eigentlich das ich um ein Stativ rum komme hat meistens auch geklappt in dem ich die Kamera einfach irgendwo drauf gelegt habe.
Deswegen hatte ich auch über einen Bohnensack nachgedacht.


Würde das Stativ vermutlich nicht häufig nutzen.
Hoffe ihr könnt mir helfen.

Lg Stefan
