Dungeons & Dragons Online Celebrates “Natural 20” Anniversary With Special Quest And Rewards

Dungeons & Dragons Online is celebrating its 20th, or as they’re calling it the “Natural 20” anniversary. Aside from the usual goodies and general activities typically associated with an MMORPG’s anniversary, the DDO team is doing a few special things.

First, they’re introducing a special 20th Anniversary quest titled “Time Flies”. This quest can be picked up from the NPC Sariyon Dran-dal on the Anniversary Island, which is accessible by speaking to Fred in House Jorasco or House Phiarlan. As you can guess from the quest title, it plays with time a little bit. Things have gone a bit wobbly, and it’s up to the players to fix it. As a result of this, every time players enter the dungeon, they’ll be randomly given one of seven different possible encounters.

The good news is players will want to make the run more than once because completing the dungeon earns them Time Fragments. The number of Time Fragments is dependent upon the highest group member's level as well as the difficulty level of the dungeon being attempted. The higher the difficulty and the lower the member level, the more fragments players will earn.

Players will be able to trade those fragments for rewards at the Timeline Fragment Exchange station on Anniversary Island.

In addition to the new quest, the celebration also includes a new “Anniversary Dungeon”. This is different from the 10th Anniversary dungeon. Although that one will be available to run as well.

Finally, an Anniversary Party challenge event is also available. When taking part in this event, players can choose a difficulty between level 1 and 39. Completing the event will earn players Stars that can then be exchanged for special rewards.
