Once Humanis an MMO survival game that ties a lot of its mechanics to the story. After being dropped into the world, players can choose to do whatever they want, from looting and crafting to progressing down skill trees or completing the main story.
Players will have complete freedom to go far from the starting area without progressing the main story, and won’t be held back in any of the skill trees. While this can help playersquickly get better gearand make short work of the story bosses when they come back, there are additional benefits to completing the story.
How To Access Rift Anchors In Once Human
Rift Anchors are tied to the main story and willrequire players to progress the storyin order to interact with the rift anchor and complete all tasks at a location. Rift Anchors are tied to the nearby Monolith of the region, and will all need to be accessed to unlock the monolith and fight the boss within. This does hold back players' ability tocomplete all tasksin a region unless they are also completing the story.
The story does offer many rewards and will be the only way to get inside Monolith to fight the bosses, making it well worth a player’s time. The story will take players from region to region, eventually beginning the quest to access all the Rift Anchors within that region. While all the other tasks in a location can be completed anytime, theRift Anchor task will only be completed during that region’s main mission. Unlocking the mission to access Rift Anchors will mark them on the map with a quest marker, but they can also be found by following the purple beam they emit straight up into the air.
