Some find this crate and don’t know whether or not it’s worth protecting, especially when a Reaper’s Bones Emissary is on their tail. If you want to know just how important the Ashes of the Damned is to your success in Sea of Thieves, then you need to learn a bit about it.

What Is The Ashes Of The Damned?

Plain and simple the Ashes of the Damned is a Trade Good Crate, but it is the ghostly version of them. It has a green and ghastly appearance that makes it instantly identifiable to any interested pirate.

You can sell it at any Outpost to the Merchant Alliance Representative, who is usually found on the dock near the water. This item can also be given to The Servant of the Flame at the Reaper’s Bones if you are sailing as their emissary, and this guide to PVP combat can help you become one of their best.

Where Do You Find It?

If you want to earn some rewards for this find, you first have to acquire it, and this is no easy task. The only way to obtain one of these chests is by taking on a Ghost Fleet when this world event is active. You know when you can earn them as Captain Flameheart’s red skull will be in the sky.

Several of these are often dropped by the Ashen Dragon Ghost Ships during the second wave and the Burning Blade itself if you reach the final wave. It is part of what makes your involvement in this event worth it as you will be able to add a few of these crates to your inventory. Make sure you have the best ship at your disposal, and this guide can help you weigh the pros and cons of them all.

You know when one of these chests might be available as ghosts will circle the defeated ship to alert you to the treasure on board.

What Rewards Will It Give You?

You can sell the crate to the Merchant Alliance for Gold, or to the Reaper’s Bones for Gold and Emissary Value.
