    @TianZi

    In your cases, did you only clear up to the Rift Guardian (RG) and then teleport back to town to close the rift, OR Did you clear the entire rift including additional levels to the point where you can take the stone back to town?


    NOTE:

    I've gotten more goblin packs after killing the RG than beforehand in many different rift scenarios, including this one. In the video, I killed the RG on the Enchanted Journey level 4 at 04:52 and got the Goblin Pack on the Enchanted Journey level 9 at 10:42. Hence, if you were to just teleport to town after the RG is dead then, in this case, you would have missed out on the Goblin Pack later in the rift.


    Other people are reporting similar results to what I experienced. This has me concluding that those that don't have a similar experience are likely not clearing additional levels.

    Ntrnettufguy here and I'd like to share with you an experience that I had earlier today while playing Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls. It was quite unique, so I hope you enjoy reading this short writeup.

    NOTE: There is a video that goes along with this write-up. If you would like to watch the video you can click here (YouTube).


    So I was GR key farming today when I came across a T8 rift called the Enchanted Journey. I don't know if this is a description for all rifts like I'm about to describe, but if you find one here's why you should clear it:


    I zoned into the rift and broke a pot next to the entrance and boom, first legendary. Didn't even mean to do it, so whatever. As I progressed through the rift I noticed that the only mob type was cows. Yes COWS. The type of cows that you'd see in the 'cow portal' or 'secret cow level' if you put a Bovine Bardiche in the Kanai's Cube and hit transmute. So cool, cows. What's special?


    Well every level of this rift was only inhabited by cows and no other mob type (excluding goblins). What's also special were two other notable inclusions: 1) A pseduo-jar of souls event conducted by the Ghost of the Cow King, and 2) a pack of goblins on level 9 of the rift. What's also noteworthy was that there were solo goblins on many of the different levels of the rift. All is fine and dandy, right?


    Well who has gotten two conduits in the same rift? If I have before I surely don't remember, but guess what? Yup, I got two Conduit shrines in this rift, and seemingly in the 'same spot' just on different levels.


    Finally, I managed to get 13 legendary items, including sets, by completing this rift all the way to the end. I even got a Focus ring and a Furnace 2-handed mace. I'm sure the loot is just random, but seems like decent loot (FYI, they rolled crappy).


    Now you may be thinking that this is just plain happenstance, but I've never seen this rift type before. Have you? If so, please comment on this post and let me know how your experience was. Did you run into a pack of goblins in this type of rift? Was the rift called 'Enchanted Journey'? Did you experience a 'jar of souls' style event lead by the Ghost of the Cow King? How were the legendary drops in the rift? Did you noticed anything special about the shrines? Any and all information is greatly appreciated.


    I just wanted to share this with you all and get any feedback from the community. I have the video of the Cow Rift clear on my YouTube channel here (Cow Rift) and you can always check out my Twitch stream anytime for some fun D3 action. Click any of those links to be taken to the appropriate webpage.


    Thanks!!

    Edit1: Oddly enough, not even 1 hour after posting this I just did a rift and got two conduits back to back (so much that the first one hadn't even expired before I got the second one.. ya, I grabbed it early..). I'm guessing the dual conduit thing above is not exclusive to that rift. The new question is.. Has anyone gotten three conduit shrines in one rift?
