Quests
You can do 4 quests per day, giving a total of 80 Chaos Motes each day.
Bug Hug and Burning Sensation are always available to complete every day, the other two quests will be randomly selected from 6.
Remember, you can do the quests on as many alts as you want! Completing the quests on alts will give you Chaos Motes on alts, which you can use to buy account bound items such as the wardrobe skins, saving your Chaos Motes on your main for bind on pickup items such as the mounts.
These 2 quests are available every day.

Zone Events
Unnatural Speciation and Aggressive Colonization are the zone events you need to look out for. Both these events have the correct Invasions and Footholds for the quests. You can track which zone events are up by checking YARET these two zone events will be in green text as they are special events.
Zone Event Summoning
The events pop in most of the Mathosian zones.
You can buy both the zone event lures (Planar Beacon/Fatestone) from the Call to Action section of the Rift Store. Or you can wait for the events to spawn naturally.
Planar Beacon: Unnatural Speciation
A re-usable zone event lure for summoning the Unnatural Speciation Zone Event.
Planar Beacon: Aggressive Colonization
A re-usable zone event lure for summoning the Aggressive Colonization Zone Event.
Zone Event Loots
During the zone events there is lots of special loot that drops.
You can see info about these loot drops on the Main Call To Action page.
Some loot is specific to these events, including:
Mount: Skittering Hellbug
Pet: Skitt

Minion Card: Kepple
