Hardcore modes are really popular nowadays, huh?

Standing Stone Games has announced the 8th season of the Dungeons & Dragons Online Hardcore League. This event tests player skills with permadeath as the ultimate penalty for failure. The fun begins in the MMORPG on May 17, and players can access the Hardcore server regardless of their account type.

The Hardcore League has two leaderboards that rank players based on their ability to complete quests and survive in the game's hardest mode. Those who play in the top 100 of each leaderboard will be immortalized in the Hall of Heroes.

If a character dies in the Hardcore League, they are sent to the Land of Lost Souls and can no longer be played on the Hardcore server. Items in the Shared Bank remain there, and dead characters are not automatically deleted. Players can use hirelings and create or join a guild, but guild airships and deposits stay on the Hardcore League server and cannot be transferred off.

At the end of the Hardcore League, players can transfer their characters for free to other game worlds, and there is a period of time to transfer characters from the server for free when the season ends. The rewards for the 8th season of the Hardcore League have yet to be announced.
