Rift Incursions in V Rising are combat events where players will face off against waves of Dracula’s ancient vampires along with other monsters and enemies. While they are fighting off enemies in the area, players will also have to close rifts by destroying crystals and that includes killing the enemies guarding the crystals.

Do note that Rift Incursions occur at a high level and players will have to be at least Level 57 and above. Not only that but players will also need the best weapons and armor before they head to complete this event. Once players manage to defeat all the guards around the crystal, it will shatter and players will get Stygian Shards from each crystal that they break.

Once all the crystals are destroyed, players will get even more Stygian Shards and some Ancestral Weapon Shards from the boss at the end. Ancestral Weapon Shards are quite useful if players want to build Ancestral Weapons and they can even purchase more Shards from the vendors in Mortium by spending Stygian Shards.
