Beastly Rift

A Beastly Rift is an exploration mechanic in Beryl Region, Fontaine. It is a challenge in which the player is required to protect several crystals within an arcane formation from waves of Riftwolves. The riftwolves will prioritize attacking the crystals over the player.
The formation will disappear after the challenge is completed.

"Beastly Rifts," a term coined by Rene, refer to portals to the Abyss. At some point in their research, Rene and Jakob figured out how to successfully open these rifts using arcane formations. Their first attempts were short-lived and only spawned Rifthounds.
The formations that the Traveler encounters on Elynas were likely activated by Jakob in order to reverse the crystallization around Elynas' heart.
Similar formations can be seen in other locations related to Rene and Jakob's research, including at the Institute of Natural Philosophy and the Book of Revealing.
==Trivia==
*Once a Beastly Rift is cleared, Breacher Primuses will appear the next time the place is visited.
**This may be a reference to how Breacher Primuses essentially act as Elynas' immune cells, driving harmful things away from his body.
