Trion teases new RIFT souls, item advancement, and more
Yesterday's Trion livestream featured a number of big reveals focused on the firm's RIFT fantasy MMO. The newly free-to-play title will be getting a number of new souls (Support Cleric, Healing Warrior, Tanking Mage, and Healing Rogue) as well as companion abilities and levels. Trion is also looking at item advancement tweaks to include more customized weapon and armor upgrades tailored to specific playstyles. Finally, the devs announced that the game's 3.0 update will feature the plane of water, and they also hinted at some sort of increased interaction with regard to RIFT's dimension housing system.

Trion reveals RIFT's new Defiler soul
Ready for another RIFT soul reveal? Trion's happy to oblige by way of the Defiler. "The Defiler terrifies and impresses with a repertoire of life-warping desecrations and ghastly heals. A medium for the energies of death, the Defiler can absorb and redirect allies' pain into potent afflictions, twisting friend and foe alike to fit any purpose," Trion says. The class is a pretty good damage dealer, too, and Trion has included a bit of lore to go along with the class description and screenshots on its Storm Legion website. [Thanks to Brad for the tip!]
