RIFT 4.2: Hotfix #2 7/26/2017
Rift 4.2 hotfix #2 goes live today, as a nice sizeable bug fix patch. Though the team has slipped in some new items, such as level 72 test dummies for your dimension, and a new Cosmic Trigger upgrade item for Raid Rift essences.
The Rift forums have a new Bug Reports section. Check it out – http://forums.riftgame.com/general-discussions/bug-reports/ – and report bugs there.

* The achievement “Summer Royalty” no longer has “Beach Bash!” as a requirement. “Beach Bash!” has been moved to the Legacy section.
