@TheStairLord They're back! Two of the items were set to seven and eight hours watch time - the Drops had to be set up again to fix that.

@SeaOfThieves Are you sure?

Twitch Drops are live. Acquire Renown, gold, Voyages and cosmetics between now and May 27th (10am UTC), by watching a participating Sea of Thieves Partner or Affiliate Alliance stream. Earn everything on the image below over the course of six hours.

@Streamerdefend2 Sorry about that, two of the items were set to seven and eight hours watch time - the Drops had to be set up again to fix that.

@SeaOfThieves tells me no longer available

@AltyBios87746 While we can't simply turn Sloop Faction Battles back on for you, we will pass this feedback on to the team.

@SeaOfThieves And hiding behind a rock and the extremely underwhelming amount of repetition you receive regardless of placement. I truly believe last ship standing interferes with how hourglass should be and interrupts its rewarding gameplay. I await a response

Sea of Thieves Season 19: Act 3 is now live, inviting Sloop crews to spin the Hourglass of Fate and face off in Last Ship Standing brawls from now until the end of the Season. For more information about this update, cast your eye over the release notes: seaofthieves.com/release-notes/…

While our first Last Ship Standing Event has begun today, our work on the mode isn't over: please read this official Forum post from Production Director Drew to learn about what you can expect this update, plus some improvements we're already working on: seaofthieves.com/community/foru…

The Sea of Thieves servers are now offline while we prepare the Sea of the Damned for Sloop crews to face off in Last Ship Standing. We'll let you know when you can set sail once again.

@GJ_Doggy We'll feed your experience back to the team. Out of interest, were you sailing on Safer Seas or High Seas?

@SeaOfThieves Within a 5 minute span as a solo is got attacked by 2 instances of skelly ships and megs at the same time. Just barely surving that a Kraken did me in I had no more supplies. Whats with the pve? this keeps happening my 5th time so far

A little later than planned following its recording in early May and the postponed Act 3, our latest Developer Update is now live. This video covers some of the game health improvements in tomorrow's update, tweaks to the Bilge Rats Weekender and some discussion of Doubloons:

@EnemyBritBomber Yes, the current plan is to increase the number of non-stolen crates you can hand in for Doubloons to five as well.

@SeaOfThieves Until you bring back doubloons to be earnt "passively" in random locations/ chances (not just reaper chests), then Bilge Rat weekend is still one of the biggest FOMO mechanics in the game. Also, giving us 5 quests does that increase the amount of them we can sell for doubloons?

@BowtieShyGuy The current plan is to increase the number of non-stolen crates you can cash in to five as well.

@SeaOfThieves "Doubloon Crate Voyages will be increased to 5", I guess this means we still only get 3x200 Doubloons (with 2 being "spare" ones)? Or do we get 5x200?

Attention, pirates! The Sea of Thieves servers will be offline from approximately 10am UTC tomorrow, May 21st, for our Season 19: Act 3 update and the first round of Last Ship Standing. Please plan your Voyages accordingly.

From the arrival of Last Ship Standing to our next Gold & Glory Weekend, the latest episode of Sea of Thieves News is here:
