RIFT's user interface is typical for that kind of games. You will find everything you need in it, and if you don't like the size or the arrangement of it, you can change it by going to the main menu (ESC), and then click Edit Layout.

1. Character's portrait with an HP, MP and Energy bar, and also with a visible name and level of the character. Below that there's a portrait of your Companion with its buffs and debuffs.

2. HP bar of the enemy that your character is currently attacking.

3. Chat window in which you can communicate on the global, direct or a private channel.

4. Quick menu bar

5. Character's abilities (lower bar) and Companion's abilities (upper bar). It's the most important and most used part of your interface. If you run out of space to put your abilities in, you can add more Action Bars by going to the main menu (ESC), and then Options -> Settings -> Interface -> Action Bars.

6. Backpack icons (Inventory).

7. A list of your quests, ongoing Events, Invasions and the process of elimination of the current Rifts.

8. Minimap with an actual time and the number of your friend and guild members online.

9. Buffs and debuffs of your character.
