'''Tripping the Rifts''' is is the ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm|Cataclysm]]'' launch event [[Feat of Strength]]. To receive this achievement, players must close one of each of the four types of elemental rifts and receive their buffs during the [[Elemental Unrest]].
−
The '''Valley of Wisdom''' {{co|42|39|Orgrimmar}} is the seat of the orcish warchief, [[Thrall]]. He resides in [[Grommash Hold]] along with the [[Orgrimmar]] [[shaman]] and [[paladin]] trainers. The valley is also home to a few vendors and quest givers, and connects to [[the Drag]] in the east and the [[Cleft of Shadow]] and [[Valley of Strength]] to the south. It is also home to the remains of the [[pit lord]] [[Mannoroth]].
 
   
  +
Elemental invasion camps can be found in every quest zone in [[Eastern Kingdoms]], [[Kalimdor]], [[Outland]] and [[Northrend]].

[[Image:Elemental Invasion Desolace 70-11.png|thumb|240px|A [[Elemental Rift (Cataclysm)|rift]] appears at [[Nijel's Point]], <br>Image taken 5 November 2010]]
  +
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.
  +
* Closing any level {{NPC||Elemental Rift (Cataclysm)||Elemental Rift}} will count towards Tripping the Rifts<ref>NA Forums, Tharyl of < Dream Team >, Nesingwary realm, http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=27508583776&sid=1&pageNo=1</ref>.
  +
* 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.

With the coming [[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm|Cataclysm]], the Valley of Wisdom will become a tauren district.<ref>[http://www.wowhead.com/blog=159674 Brand New Cataclysm Info!

Elemental Unrest
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.
Inv enchant voidsphere Neutral Tripping the Rifts
Destroyed one of each type of elemental rift during the Cataclysm launch event.
Criteria:

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

Elemental invasion camps can be found in every quest zone in Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, Outland and Northrend.

Overview

File:Elemental Invasion Desolace 70-11.png

A rift appears at Nijel's Point,
Image taken 5 November 2010

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.

  • Closing any level Elemental Rift will count towards Tripping the Rifts[1].
  • It is not necessary to have all four buffs at the same time to complete the achievement. [2]
  • Rifts de-spawn if not closed within ten minutes.
  • Players are only eligible for the daily quest Hammering It Out or 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:
    • 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%
    • 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 can be found in the following zones:
