For those wanting to strap on the ol' black eye patch, Dungeons & Dragons Online devs have an event to satisfy that pirate-y urge! Euphonia's Challenge or Treasure of the Crystal Cove has returned to the game. From now through March 27th, players can participate in special quests, events and gain event-specific prizes.

Redeem your invitation by placing it into Euphonia’s Hat Box, and get one of the six tiers of pirate hat:

• Tier 1: Swabby’s Kerchief
• Tier 2: Freebooter’s Bandana
• Tier 3: Corsair’s Skullcap
• Tier 4: Captain’s Chapeau
• Tier 5: Admiral’s Tricorne
• Tier 6: Dread Admiral’s Tricorne

The tier of pirate hat your character receives is based on various factors, but the biggest factor is how much you’ve played DDO with the character in question! Tip! Didn't get the hat you were hoping for? No worries! Slay pirates (and other baddies) throughout Smuggler's Rest and Crystal Cove, earn doubloons, and barter for any pirate hat tier you want – dyes and item upgrades too!
