    Default Summerfest Badges/bracelettes

    Not sure if this was mentioned yet but is the only way to get the badges fishing them up 1 at a time or the dailies? my annoyance with that is i need to collect 2000 of them just to get the 2 esseneces <.< so thats kinda annoying XD would love if the life rifts gave a bit more then 7 too i know the idea was to make it so we couldnt farm them, but there r so many things to get :/ as well with regards to the bracelettes, b nice if those would drop from life rifts too o.o unless they r gonna give us alot of quests that reward them in the next phase bc at the moment, im not even gonna come close to getting everything i want :/ i have yet to fish one up :/

    This is an annual event... You won't be able to get everything. It is on purpose that you can earn 6 total Bracelets and there are 12 things to buy with Bracelets.

    I hope you are kidding. If not that is the stupidest thing I have heard. Yes it is a annual event. No players shouldn't be held back from rewards just in the hopes they will play next year to get them. You guys can't even guarantee the game will be up and running year to year.

    Even Blizzard was smart enough to realize people want to be able to finish annual events every year. You guys are good at stealing things. Steal common sense.

    Edit- Also in game there are 14 items not 12 that require bracelet. But that is probably smart planning also. What is better then forcing 2 years of participation. Forcing THREE years. WOOT.

    Speaking only for myself: I'm super happy with this, because I have something of an alt problem, and a non-recurring thing makes me stressy because WHAT IF I GOT IT ON THE WRONG CHARACTER HUH? WHAT THEN?!?

    Recurring stuff is cool.
    You can play WoW in any MMO. You don't have to play WoW in RIFT. Oh, and no, RIFT is not a WoW clone. Not having fun any more? Learn to play, noob! I don't speak for Riftui, but I moderate stuff there. Got ideas for improving the RIFT community? Feel free to PM me. Just came back? Welcome back! Here's what's changed. (NOTE NEW URL)

    I got a bracelet on my first fishing expedition after the WE began. It seems like there will be more than six per player.

    God


    WHO seriously thought this was a bright idea? This is like the tree planting quest, people want to "finish" it all, asap. Learn from this, please!

    Oh and change that 6 total bracelets crap

    Actually there are 16 items that cost a bracelett (more than 1 vendor!), only 6 braceletts a year is pretty lame, I've already lost interest in knowing it'd take me 3 years to get everything that will be quite old, and that's assuming that Trion won't add things in future years, which isn't too hard to expect from their generally exceptional team.

    is it impossible to get the bracelets on alts, buy the BoA items, then mail them to your main?

    i ask this genuinely because it seems everyone is saying it will take them years, but i plan on having it finished by next week

    Yes you can trade BOA items from toon to toon. With that said people like to finish it on multiple toons. Not waste time on multiple toons just to finish it on their main.

    Not sure it matters if I can get everything, since inventory issues have become so bad that I couldn't find a place to put it all if I COULD get it all.

    Activatable items like some of the rewards need to instead be collected to grant abilities to use the effects. Needing to find inventory space (that we don't have) for fun stuff removes the fun out of the equation.

    I don't think it's possible to get the bracelets on alts and send them to a main. The bracelets are in your currencies, not bags. I really want to get all the items so I spent hours fishing for the bracelets. I got one on the first day and hoped to get lucky again, but had no luck. Anyone know if rifts also drop them?

    Well the original post was complaining about not being able to get just badges in other ways, which is completely false. You can farm rifts of any kind, and often I'm getting between 7-11 badges per rift. I had my first essence in no time at all.

    As for the bracelets, I can't recall, but I think I only got these as rewards from the scavenger hunts.
