The Fractures in Time event has been running for a while now, but you may not have had the chance to explore the new Time Rifts in Dragonflight. So, we’ll detail everything you need to know about this fresh type of content, including how to find the Time Rifts, how they work, and what you can get for completing them.
How to find Time Rifts in WoW
Time Rifts take place at Tyrhold Reservoir in Thaldraszus. An icon on your map will indicate where you need to go, along with a timer telling you when the next event will happen. They seem to take place every hour, so no matter what time you arrive, you shouldn’t have long to wait before the next one.
How Time Rifts work
Time Rifts have two phases, with a boss to defeat in the second. The first phase lasts for 10 minutes and has you killing enemies, taking part in mini-games, and completing various other tasks. Completing these activities will reward you with Paracausal Flakes, which is a currency that can be used with the new Time Rift vendors. You’ll additionally be rewarded with Temporal Essence, which allows you to collect extra rewards from phase one, via Box of Tampered Reality chests.
A bar at the top of your screen will show you how many Temporal Essence you need for the next reward level. Once 10 minutes of phase one has passed, phase two will start.
The second phase will open a portal to one of seven possible alternate realities, where you’ll need to defeat an associated boss. Defeating the boss will reward you with more Paracausal Flakes and Soridormi reputation, as well as the chance for cosmetics, catch-up gear, and Dilated Time Capsules to drop.
You can pick up the weekly quest, When Time Needs Mending, from Soridormi after the reset each week. All you need to do to fulfill the objective is to take part in a Time Rift and see it through to completion. Once you’ve done so, you can hand the quest in to receive a Contain Paracausality chest which contains various rewards.
