The rifts work off of a points system. Depending on the amount of kills the player participated in, they can get a higher participation ranking. The rankings are from minimal to phenomenal. Before the rift is closed, you may type /rift to get the participation ranking list; however, you have to be standing inside the rift area. After the rift is closed, the command can be issued anywhere to view the ranking list.

A light beacon will appear on a server (one beam per server at one time) 2 real-life days before the rift will open on PvE and 3 real-life hours before opening on PvP. The location is random each time. The actual size of light appears to be a radius of 20 tiles in all directions from the beacon, or a 41x41 tile perimeter.

* All metallic shoulder pad rewards can come in any metal type.
* When a beacon appears you may walk through it for the Rift Investigator achievement and when the rift is closed you will get the ''Rift Defender'' and ''Rifter'' [[titles]].
