Budgie Days 8 in Rift: Racing, Rewards, and Feathery Fun!



 

Hello, Ascended! It’s that time of year again—time to hit the racetracks and compete for prizes in Rift’s fan-favorite event, Budgie Days. From thrilling races to collecting valuable Chaos Motes, Budgie Days has everything you need to add some excitement and adorable mounts to your adventures. Whether you’re a racing pro or a curious newcomer, there’s plenty of fun in store, but be quick! Budgie Days ends on October 28, 2024.

Let’s explore the highlights of Budgie Days 8 and why this event is one you don’t want to miss!

What is Budgie Days?

If you’re new to Rift or simply missed out on previous Budgie Days, here’s the scoop: Budgie Days is an annual event where players get the chance to earn Chaos Motes through special daily quests, which they can exchange for coveted mounts and other rewards. The event is named after the adorable budgie mounts you can acquire, making it a unique blend of racing excitement and collection madness!

For Budgie Days 8, players can find quest givers stationed at:

  • Meridian/setwaypoint 6122 5231
  • Sanctum/setwaypoint 7380 3078
  • Tempest Bay/setwaypoint 12943 11579

These NPCs will kickstart your journey to Chaos Motes, leading you into races and quests where you’ll need speed, focus, and a little strategy to come out on top.

How to Dominate the Budgie Races

Budgie Days isn’t just about collecting mounts; it’s also a race! Whether you’re aiming to win or just enjoy the journey, here are some tips and tricks to help you soar to victory:

  1. Stay on Track: The courses are mapped out with specific paths, so keeping within the lines ensures you won’t miss checkpoints or get lost. Stray too far, and you could miss out on valuable time.
  2. Hit Every White Checkpoint: The white checkpoints are there to make sure you’re covering the course properly. Missing a checkpoint could lead to penalties or even disqualification, so make sure to pass through each one.
  3. Green Boosts Are Your Friends: The green boosts scattered throughout the course will give you the extra speed you need. Think of them like mini hyperdrives—engage them to rocket past your opponents.
  4. Avoid Orange Traps: While green boosts speed you up, orange traps will do the opposite. These traps slow you down significantly, so avoid them if you want to keep your momentum strong.

Racing in Budgie Days requires a mix of skill and focus. With these strategies, you’ll be on your way to snagging the top spot, along with some epic rewards.

Rewards: What Can You Earn During Budgie Days?

The main currency for Budgie Days is Chaos Motes, which you earn by completing daily quests. These motes can be exchanged for several rewards, with the star of the show being the event-exclusive budgie mounts. These mounts are not only cute but add style and utility to your gameplay. So if you’ve been looking to expand your mount collection, Budgie Days is your perfect chance.

But don’t stop at mounts—Budgie Days often includes additional surprises, like unique gear, rare items, and seasonal consumables that can boost your in-game experience. The more Chaos Motes you collect, the more options you’ll have when redeeming rewards, so make sure to hit up the quest givers each day to maximize your gains.

Issues on European Shards

It’s worth noting that players on European shards may currently be experiencing issues with the event, as reported by Rift’s team. They’re actively working on it, so hang tight if you’re playing in Europe and having trouble accessing Budgie Days.



For Fans of Mods and Customization

If you’re into adding a unique spin to your character’s look, you might enjoy checking out character mods from other games as well. For example, the new Star Wars Outlaws – Nude Kay Vess Mod has been making waves among Star Wars gaming fans. While it’s a different universe, it shows how adding character flair can make a game feel even more personal and engaging!

Final Thoughts: Don’t Miss Budgie Days 8!
