Rift is almost
upon us and anticipation levels are at an all time high. While the game
brings a ton of innovative features to the table, few are as
interesting or powerful as the Soul system. In a Ten Ton Hammer
exclusive we get the first look at

at PvP combat.

these souls grow in power based on the amount of Prestige a player
accumulates and give a powerful incentive to continually hone your
craft of player vs. player warfare. The Defiant used their powerful
machines to cobble together their new souls specifically for the unique
challenges of fending off the Guardians. The Vigil received their new
specializations from the gods, born in the image of four powerful
celestial beings brought back to do battle with the hated heretics.
