Trion Worlds has made several improvements to its free-to-play title Rift that aim to enhance the gaming experience. In update 3.1, a revamped user interface in crafting and numerous new features for the minions and dimensions will be introduced.
Minions are meant to be enslaved. With the new real-money stamina potions, your minions will be working overtime. Once you have administered a stamina potion to your minion, a 24-hour cooldown begins before you can boost them again.

Additionally, there is the option to skip an adventure with your minion. If you choose to skip an adventure, it will be randomly replaced with a new one, which will also have a cooldown. Furthermore, you can link minions in chat and enable sound notifications for minions.

Free flight certificate for your dimensions: Thanks to a freely movable camera, you can navigate freely through your dimension, without the terrain getting in your way. In the past, this feature has been requested multiple times by the community. Additionally, the permission structure of dimensions has been revised. With a “special list”, you will soon be able to allow friends or guild members to move items in your dimension. In return, you can deny access to uninvited guests by putting them on a blacklist.
A favorites feature has been implemented in the crafting UI. You can now mark crafting recipes as favorites by bookmarking them. A link to the quick bar is also possible. In the future, you will also be able to change the frame by right-clicking on your player portrait.

You can find an extensive list of all changes on the Developer Blog of Rift in German.
