Rift Quest:Keep Away  

When the Wardstone is activated you will see a broadcast message, "The Guardians have begun to collect Rift Bloom at the Auld Warden!". This is also the signal for all Defiant forces in the area to move to stop you. You receive a buff, Blessing of Battle, as well to help you survive this trial.

In out of the way places within the ancient tree you will find a Rift Bloom. Harvesting it gives you a 3 minute buff called Rift Rage. Get back to the wardstone before the energy fades to charge the wardstone. You must do this 8 times.

The only Rift Bloom we found was on a root off the lip of the platform and we fell trying to get back up. Because of the Rift Rage we survived the fall!

The Defiant version of this quest is Knockoff.
