The Anniversary Event is back and because it's the 16th year of DDO , they're giving away some cosmetic outfits that will be account-bound when obtained. Once a day characters can go and speak to the Anniversary Djinn outside the anniversary dungeon and pick an outfit once a day through December 31st 2022. The anniversary event itself runs through March 20th. There are several new items, including masks and caplets and even some new changes, new dialogue, secrets and jokes to the events this year. There are also several previous anniversary gifts into the barter vendors stock.
Everyone will also be able to play the following races from the D&D Player’s Handbook as free permanent unlocks. The now-unlocked races are Dragonborn, Drow, Gnome, Half-elf, Half-orc, Tiefling, and Wood-elf. The newly unlocked classes are Druid, Monk, and Warlock. Players that have already purchased these races and classes will get a Greater Elixir of Discovery for each one they owned prior to the release of update 53.
With the Drow being permanently unlocked for all, Warforged is now going to be awarded on a per-server basis at 400 Favor. If you have already reached 400 and unlocked Drow, you will unlock Warforged on login.
