Skull and Bones changes
Azure Solstice will run 9th December 2025, 6AM UTC to 6th January 2026, 5:59AM UTC.
The familiar Frostbitten Spirits Event Convoy & Azure Royale Elite Warship World Events return alongside a brand-new Elite Warship, the Azure Harbinger!
Summon the new Azure Harbinger at the event buoy using flares obtained from Event Drops, Events Quests or via the Event Vendor.
The Azure Fleet ships are protected by barriers that are vulnerable to Burning damage.
Collect Azurite and use them to get event rewards from the Event Vendor and exclusive cosmetics from the Store.
Rewards:
New Epic Bombard: Frostwail
New Epic Major Furniture: Sheeting Winch Console
New Event Cosmetics
Ascension materials
Ascended Weapon Chests
The Nashkar, High-Velocity Kegs, and other weapons will also be available
New Elite Warship: Azure Harbinger
New Elite Warship with unique behavior and firing patterns.
All weapons used by the Azure Harbinger can inflict a new status effect: Frostbite
Frostbite (Event-Only Status): Heavily slows down navigation and reload speed of affected ships.
Flooded Synergy - When Frostbite and Flooded are triggered at the same time, the total amount of severe damage that is done by the Flooded status will be applied instantly instead of over a period of time. Flooded will be removed after the severe damage is applied.
Ablazed Synergy - If Ablazed is triggered while Frostbite is active, the Frostbite status is removed. Players are immune to Frostbite charges when Ablazed.
Iceberg Buoy
The Azure Harbinger spawns tall, thin ice buoys in different patterns throughout the fight.
Iceberg Buoys slowly apply Frostbite charge to all nearby players.
Ice Crystal Buoy
The Azure Harbinger spawns small, round ice buoys in different patterns throughout the fight.
Ice Crystal Buoys explode after a short buildup, dealing damage to nearby players.
Armor of Frost
At fixed health thresholds, the Azure Harbinger activates a special barrier that cannot be destroyed by any weapons.
Destroy the crystal figurehead weakpoint of the Elite Warship to break the barrier.
If the Armor of Frost is not destroyed after a fixed period of time, the Elite Warship will heal for a portion of its health.
