I am going to be moving to the Rift in the next week and would like to learn as much as possible about it before I get there. I have some information, but would like to get a full picture.
I would appreciate it if someone could describe how the rift works, how to move up and down the planes, where the resting area(s) are, etc.
Thanks.

The resting area is on the way to the rift. It's a 4 room cavern and to enter the rift you need to be on the rightmost room of the cavern and enter a sphere.
Once you enter the sphere, you must walk repeatedly in one direction. Depending on the direction you walk in, you'll land on one of the planes of the rift and hell begins.
The dangers of the rift include 2 voids per plane (from planes 1-3) that roam around hunting you down to suck you in them and kill you, anti-mana pulses that steal your mana, etheral beams of light that knock you out of hiding and make the area unhidable for awhile, ground shaking, sometimes you get rifted, meaning if you're on plane 1, you get teleported to plane 2.
Additionally... the only way off a plane of the rift (plane 1-3) is to find a door or mirror and walk through it. The door and mirror move around so sometimes you spend awhile trying to look for them, the rift is set up like a maze and sometimes you can go in one direction and end up where you started which is a little confusing.
Finally... to go to a higher plane you climb the silvery thread which also moves around, and to go to a lower plane you climb the rickety staircase which moves around as well. Both these devices require climbing skill.

You can peer into the rooms next to you.
If you die and nobody can get you IM me at LordEdgeleaf. I am always up there or can get you help.
Going into the sphere. Going north is plane 1, west is 2, east is 3. South I think is 1 too. Stay on plane till 111 I think. Stay on 2 till 116. Stay on 3 till 120. 4 till 123 then its home free. No more fear.
Do not log off if you drop your weapon and shield and die. The plane will reset and your gear goes bye bye.

I should be up there in the next couple of days. I'm sure you'll be hearing my death cry often.
