We have temporarily disabled the out-of-body experience that can occur with Magic Rifts while we address issues that have arisen with it.
Hopefully it isn’t that we can attack the anomaly players, that’s a nice little touch
I wonder what the issues are. Is the fact that we’re hostile an unintended thing?
Or is there some kind of exploit that can be used? In which case, I understand if we don’t get any specific details.
Darn, I never even figured out how to go out-of-body. Not sure I even can now once it’s unlocked again since I completed Burden of Choice.
Completing Burden of Choice had no adverse effect on becoming an Anomaly. Thus, if it is enabled, again, you will still be able to do so.
Map exploration can be a little more annoying with the rifts as well. A few are on-top of vistas and with people opening the rifts you can be teleported to another map instead of getting the vista.
And here I was just about to log in and try to figure the silly thing out…
The issue is probably that anomalies can kill some NPCs.

Nothing happens if you walk through a rift, you have to jump to get teleported. So, don’t jump?
I wanted to follow up to let you know that this situation has been corrected, and your out-of-body experiences will now proceed as intended.
Thanks for letting us know. Now I just have to figure out how to trigger said experience.

Have someone tell jokes about the Rift’s mother? That always triggers me.

For me, it’s always been random. Just jumping near a Rift would cause the transformation (randomly, about once in 50 jumps?), holding a Class II Stabilizer set to a random coordinate (I used 9 and 7, but others used different coordinates).
Good luck.
