'''Tripping the Rifts''' was the ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm|Cataclysm]]'' launch event [[Feat of Strength]]. To receive this achievement, players had to close one of each of the four types of elemental rifts and receive their buffs during the [[Elemental Unrest]].

Elemental invasion camps could be found in every quest zone in [[Eastern Kingdoms]], [[Kalimdor]], [[Outland]] and [[Northrend]]. They could also be found in [[Stormwind]], [[Ironforge]], [[Orgrimmar]] and [[Thunder Bluff]] every three hours, from midnight server time (so 00:00, 03:00, 06:00 and so on). Elementals that were found within major cities however, were much more powerful and had to be approached with extreme caution.

The rifts are on a random spawn timer of approximately 50–56 minutes. It seems all rifts are on the same timer and occur about the same time.

* It is not necessary to have all four buffs at the same time to complete the achievement. <ref>Wowhead, Tripping the Rifts, http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=4887</ref>
 
* Rifts de-spawn if not closed within ten minutes.
 
* Players are only eligible for the daily quest {{quest|Hammering It Out}} or {{quest|A Natural Occurrence}} from a rift that is within the player's level range. The level range on the tables below indicate the general level range of the zones; however, the actual level range at which players are eligible for quests is slightly wider.
 
* Defeating an elemental drains the rift of one [[health]] point. Elementals defeated by NPCs, pets, or guardians will not be counted for reducing the rift's health.
 
* The health of each rift varies with the level of the zone it appears in. Lower level rifts have six health while higher level rifts have twelve health.
 
* Bring the rift to zero health to close it and spawn the Mysterious Device in its place.
 
* Players within range of the rift when it closed will be granted a [[buff]]. The buff lasts for an hour, but will disappear on death.
 
* The nature of the buff depends on the type of rift that was destroyed:
 
** {{ability|Earth Powered}}: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to heal you for 2% of your maximum health.
 
** {{ability|Fire Powered}}: Each melee attack, ranged attack, or harmful spell has a chance of engulfing the target in flames, dealing X damage over 15 sec. Stacks 5 times. Scales based on player level.
 
** {{ability|Water Powered}}: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to increase your Energy, Rage, Mana or Runic Power gain by 15%
 
** {{ability|Wind Powered}}: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to increase your haste rating by 50% for 10 sec.

* Defeating an elemental drained the rift of one [[health]] point. Elementals defeated by NPCs, pets, or guardians would not be counted for reducing the rift's health unless a player had tagged the elemental.

The subject of this article or section was part of the Elemental Unrest, a world event that heralded the beginning of the earth-shattering Cataclysm.

Fire elementals near an Elemental Rift.

Tripping the Rifts was the Cataclysm launch event Feat of Strength. To receive this achievement, players had to close one of each of the four types of elemental rifts and receive their buffs during the Elemental Unrest.

Elemental invasion camps could be found in every quest zone in Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, Outland and Northrend. They could also be found in Stormwind, Ironforge, Orgrimmar and Thunder Bluff every three hours, from midnight server time (so 00:00, 03:00, 06:00 and so on). Elementals that were found within major cities however, were much more powerful and had to be approached with extreme caution.

Overview

NPCs react to Elemental Rift

A rift appears at Nijel's Point

The rifts were on a random spawn timer of approximately 50–56 minutes. It appeared all rifts were on the same timer and occurred about the same time.

  • Closing any level Elemental Rift [counted] towards Tripping the Rifts.[1]
  • It was not necessary to have all four buffs at the same time to complete the achievement.[2]
  • Rifts de-spawned if not closed within ten minutes.
  • Players were only eligible for the daily quest B [80] Hammering It Out or B [10-80 Daily] A Natural Occurrence from a rift that was within the player's level range. The level range on the tables below indicated the general level range of the zones; however, the actual level range at which players were eligible for quests was slightly wider.
  • Defeating an elemental drained the rift of one health point. Elementals defeated by NPCs, pets, or guardians would not be counted for reducing the rift's health unless a player had tagged the elemental.
  • The health of each rift varied with the level of the zone it appeared in. Lower level rifts had six health while higher level rifts had twelve health.
  • Bringing the rift to zero health closed it and spawned the Inv battery 01 [Mysterious Device] in its place.
  • Players within range of the rift when it closed were granted a buff. The buff lasted for an hour, but disappeared on death.
  • The nature of the buff depended on the type of rift that was destroyed:
    • Inv elemental mote earth01 [Earth Powered]: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to heal you for 2% of your maximum health.
    • Inv summerfest firespirit [Fire Powered]: Each melee attack, ranged attack, or harmful spell has a chance of engulfing the target in flames, dealing X damage over 15 sec. Stacks 5 times. Scales based on player level.
    • Inv elemental mote water01 [Water Powered]: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to increase your Energy, Rage, Mana or Runic Power gain by 15% for 10 seconds.
    • Inv elemental mote air01 [Wind Powered]: Each melee attack, ranged attack, harmful spell or healing spell has a chance to increase your haste rating by 50 for 10 sec.

Locations

The rift types could be found in the following zones before the Shattering:
