Make the Grade
Watch streams in Twitch’s Sea of Thieves category during Community Weekend to help to raise the combined Community Emissary Grade. Each Grade increase acts as a multiplier, earning all players more gold, reputation, Seasonal Renown, Allegiance and Guild Reputation! Take it all the way up to Grade Five to enjoy rewards two-and-a-half times greater than usual. You must be logged in to Twitch to contribute, so head to twitch.tv to get started.
Watching eligible streams will also start unlocking Twitch Drops: the new Reigning Morningstar Boots and Trousers, bonus Seasonal Renown and 75,000 gold to spend in Outpost shops! Keep an eye on your Twitch inventory to track how you’re doing.
Rewards Aplenty
As always, Twitch isn’t the only source of free cosmetics. Simply set sail on High Seas during this Event to claim the Season 18 Community Weekend Flag and celebratory Rising Wave Emote! You can also contribute to a Community Spirit Goal by completing Ashen Message in a Bottle Voyages – and if the cumulative goal is reached during Community Weekend, all participants earn an extra item, the Meridian Hunter Double Barrel Pistol.
During your adventures in The Devil’s Roar throughout the weekend, you’ll also stand a rare chance of securing a Chest of Fortune from Ashen Message in a Bottle Voyages and Quest Board Maps for Devil’s Roar islands. Find one and cash it in to earn the Devil’s Fortune Seeker Title!
Pop-Up Plunder
It’s back, now with a refreshed loot pool! Throughout Community Weekend, tantalising Pop-Up Plunder will show up periodically on the map. You’ll see an in-game notification, but to find the loot you’ll need to unravel clues shared on Sea of Thieves’ social media channels. Hurry though, as there’s only one stash per server which disappears after an hour if unclaimed! And watch your ship’s map, as uncovered treasure is pinpointed by a marker for other crews to pursue until it’s cashed in…
Fireworks
Community Weekend wouldn’t be much of a party without some fireworks to brighten up the sky. During the Event, you can pick up a Community Spirit Firework Crate from a local Merchant Alliance representative free of charge to help you celebrate in style.
Picture Walls
Picture Walls are back at every Outpost (and The Reaper’s Hideout) for all your pirate selfie needs. Each one is themed with the new Community Weekend colours and comes with its own grog barrel for maximum convenience when sharing a celebratory toast. Be sure to share your best Picture Wall crew snapshots with us!
