Editing Riftwalker (section)

==Sacrificing to The Rift==
After the CHAOS phase at '''3,000 streak''', and again every 2,000 streak after that (5,000, 7,000 and so on), the '''Rift Choice''' menu opens:
*'''SACRIFICE!''': end your run and collect your rewards.
*'''KEEP FIGHTING''': continue for the chance of more rewards. If you die, you lose your sacrifice rewards (see [[#Dying on a run|Dying on a run]]).
*'''CTHONIC PHASE''': sometimes offered instead, see [[#CTHONIC phases|CTHONIC phases]].
If you don't choose within 15 seconds, you keep fighting.

===Rewards===
*A sacrifice at 3,000 streak gives '''4 rewards''', plus 1 more for every 2,000 streak after that (5 at 5,000, 6 at 7,000, and so on).
*You also earn 100 Riftwalker XP per reward from your streak (400 at 3,000 streak). Bonus rewards from CTHONIC phases, Insurmountable, MVP+ and the Boost Potion add no XP.
*Each CTHONIC phase completed during the run adds 2 rewards.
*With the Weather Dial trinket, each 2,000 streak past 13,000 adds 1 reward and 100 Riftwalker XP.
*With the Nightshade Clover evolution, reaching the Rift Storm adds 1 reward and 100 Riftwalker XP.
*At 10,000 streak or more, the [[Insurmountable]] enchant gives a chance of 3 bonus rewards.
*A Riftwalker Boost Potion used before the run doubles your rewards. It is used up if you die. The MVP+ rank then adds 2 more rewards.
*Sacrificing also banks any Soul Shards you are carrying (see [[Xaroth]]).

===Dying on a run===
If you die without sacrificing, you lose the run's rewards.
*With the Rollback mastery node, dying above 3,000 streak recovers 20% per tier (rounded down) of the rewards of your last possible sacrifice.
*Otherwise, dying above 1,000 streak gives a consolation prize: 20% chance of +500 [[Currencies|Megacoins]], 65% chance of one random Rift reward, 15% chance of a Rift Energy refund.

===CTHONIC phases===
At a sacrifice point, the Rift Choice menu may offer a '''CTHONIC PHASE''' ("The Deal"). Choosing it makes the next CHAOS phase CTHONIC:
*+2 Rift Attacks for that phase.
*3x phase rewards: each CTHONIC phase you complete adds 2 rewards to your sacrifice.
*If you die, the run's sacrifice rewards are lost as usual.
The chance of being offered a CTHONIC phase is 0% until Riftwalker level 6. From level 6 it is 10% plus 1% per level above 5 (11% at level 6, 30% at level 25). The Planted Boots trinket adds 5–30%, and with it you cannot turn the offer down: the CTHONIC phase replaces Keep Fighting, though you can still sacrifice.
