“During the Witches Festival, when you defeat a boss monster, you’ll receive a Plunder Skull container in addition to your regular rewards. These bloodcurdling boxes have a chance to contain some of the following items:

- Fragments of the new Witch-Tamed Bear Dog pet called Bonedust Pigments

- Combine 10 fragments to craft this collectible

- Hollowjack style items

-

Dremora style items

- Witches Festival-themed recipes

- Bewitching Alchemy reagents

- … and an assortment of creepy and valuable items!”

A special Dremora Plunder Skull will also drop the first time a certain boss type is killed.

Don’t forget to complete the “Witchmother’s Bargain” quest from the Crown Store to receive the Witchmother’s Whistle which you can use to get a two-hour 100% XP bonus. The whistle will also summon a Witchmother's Cauldron that players can use to turn themselves into the undead.
