World of Warcraft players can now look forward to a new exciting adventure as a pirate in a new limited time event. Here is what Blizzard writes in their press release:
Be enchanted by Plunderstorm - a fun, new, limited-time, pirate-themed event of massive scale that will run for the next several weeks. Scour the map and try to be the last pirate standing as you run through the Arathi Highlands to find abilities and upgrades while looting loot just to survive!
Players can earn cosmetics, pets, titles and mounts as they progress through the rewards, including a majestic Plunderlord parrot mount, Bubbles crab pet, pirate boot splash cosmetics and more. A victory is not required to claim the spoils after a well-fought battle.
Plunderstorm is perfect to pick up and play! No expansion purchase is required, but a World of Warcraft subscription or game time is required to engage in high-intensity, impromptu combat. This means that Classic players can also participate in an abundance of looting fun by simply installing the Modern (Live) World of Warcraft client:
When in Modern WoW:
To view Renown and apply Plunderstorm weapons and transmog customizations, change titles or summon pets, "sailors" can click on Da'kash Grimledger standing directly in front of the spawn point in the Plunderstorm lobby.
The customization locks are unlocked simultaneously for Dragonflight characters and can be found in your Collection. Each Renown level unlock is noted in colored text below the reward name, regardless of whether the reward is for Dragonflight, Plunderstorm, or Classic.
