General Info

The “On Dark and Stormy Tides” event is a small hunt event where you can hunt 2 event ships, Grog Bootlegger and Captain Ron on maps 5 – 50.

Captain Ron spawns after a certain amount of Grog Bootlegger has been sunk.

3 Trader event ships, Smugglin´ Jack, Smugglin´ Jim and Smugglin' Johnny, spawn on the Sea chart every 4 hours for 30 minutes.

All event ships must be shot with elite ammunition.

On every megaserver, there is a limited amount of Barrels of Grog available.

The more of the currency is distributed in the game, the less event ships spawn.

Once all Barrels of Grog are in the game, event ships don´t spawn anymore.

If a player is attacked by another player, the enemy can loot the Barrels of Grog of the victim.

How many Barrels of Grog change the owner is determined by the stock of both players.

There is a safe amount of Barrels of Grog that cannot be stolen by other players.

Every 2 hours you lose 15% of your Barrels of Grog, which can be avoided with a buff: “Grog Master”.​
