New World Aeternum Season 7 ...
New World Season 7, Season of the Conquerors is finally here! Just like the previous season updates, 8 new Artifacts have been added to Season 7, and in this guide we’re going to talk about the ways to get these new Artifacts. Season 6 Artifacts Before that, though, let’s start with the changes to Season 6 Artifacts. These Artifacts are no longer available from the last Season Pass, but now have new ways to get them. Let’s take a look! Cowl Of Power - Light Headwear First up we have Light Headwear, Cowl of Power. This Artifact now drops from PVP Rewards Track. But since the last update, the chances of getting Artifacts from PVP Rewards Track have been increased to make the grind less painful. You now have a chance to get Artifact at the third checkpoint at level 29 and level 39 on PVP track. Then, starting at level 50, the chances of getting an Artifact every three checkpoints are even higher. Grace - Greatsword Then we have Grace Greatsword, this Artifact now also drops from PVP reward track, but as mentioned before, since the last update, in addition to a large number of New World Coins, the chances that we can get Artifacts from PVP reward track have also been greatly increased. So, prepare a strong build to make your PVP journey smoother. Season 7 Artifacts Now, let’s get to the new Artifacts, starting with the two Artifacts that you can get in the free version of Season 7 Pass. 1. Otzi - Ice Gauntlet First, we have Ice Gauntlet, Otzi, this Artifact drops at level 20 in the free version of Season 7 Pass, and the new method of obtaining this Artifact will be revealed in Season 8. 2. Heceta - Life Staff Then, we have Life Staff, Heceta. This Artifact drops at level 80 in the free version of Season 7 Pass. Again, a new method for obtaining this Artifact will be revealed in Season 8. 3. Shrapnel - Musket Next, we have a couple of new Artifacts that can be obtained through PVP related methods. First up is Musket Shrapnel. You will have a chance to receive this Artifact when you complete Outpost Rush matches and open reward caches. It is worth noting that we have multiple different Artifacts to obtain in these reward caches, but remember that you can only drop this Shrapnel Artifact from caches that are level 61 or higher. So make sure you are at least level 61 before starting this grind. 4. Justice - Earring Then we have Earring Justice. This Artifact can be obtained from Sovereign Influence - Victor’s Spoils. If you don’t like PVP, don’t worry, you don’t have to go out of your way to spend hours here to participate in these contests, instead, you can jump into any territory that is currently in conflict, go to the location where a lot of PVP is happening, usually through Fast Travel Shrine near Control Towers, and then do a little damage before leaving after the match. This way, you will receive one of the caches, and have a chance to get an artifact, which makes things easier. Not to mention, if you throw in a weapon that can deal AOE damage from a distance it will make the whole thing a lot easier. Anyway, all you need to do is go up and hit some people a few times, and then go back to what you were doing. If you have a hard time finding which area is in conflict, you will be able to tell where these contests are happening on the map. You will see some small towers on the map with different factions on them, indicating that they are fighting. Usually, this is where the contests are taking place, and there are several contests held at fixed times every day. So when you log in, check the red bar on the map that says upcoming matches, then see the schedule of the matches and be ready to start a match at any time. It is worth noting that this artifact can only drop from caches that are level 25 or higher. So don’t start this quest any time before then. 5. Aconite - Bow After that we can also get some Artifacts from open world activities and bosses. Starting with Bow Aconite, this Artifact drops from the open world boss, Viridulon the Rootbound. If you go through the portal from the front door, you can climb up the cliff to get to him, avoiding all the powerful monsters, or you can use the shortcut behind Fast Travel Shrine and skip all the enemies to get directly to him. Honestly though, Viridulon the Rootbound is a really hard boss to take on alone. So if you want to go for this Artifact, I highly recommend getting a group. 6. Burnanator - Firestaff After that we have Firestaff Burnanator. This Artifact drops from the open world boss of Shattered Mountain, Leviathan of the Deep. To get to him, you can first teleport to Alazar’s Recall Outpost in Shattered Mountain and then follow the path to his cave. Like the previous boss, he is also a tough boss to deal with alone, so it is recommended that you lead a team to deal with it to increase the chance of dropping Burnanator. Similarly, don’t forget to improve your own strength while joining a good team. If you don’t have enough coins to invest in a build, then you might want to check out the giveaway channel in iGMeet Discord. Just be active in the group and you may get a windfall! 7. Fracture - Void Gauntlet Next, we have Void Gauntlet, Fracture. This artifact can be obtained by turning off Corrupted Breaches above level 65. It is worth noting that joining the portal run is a good way to farm it because it is difficult to complete alone and requires a team to cooperate. Remember that although you can get multiple artifacts from Corrupted Breaches. However, it will not drop immediately after completing it once. You may need to repeat the run multiple times, so please be patient. 8. Dorgort’s Blade - Rapier Finally, let’s look at another Artifact we get from Expeditions, and that’s Rapier, Dorgort’s Blade. This Artifact is dropped by the boss, Ifrit, in Empyrean Forge Expedition. However, this Artifact requires at least Mutation Level 1 or higher to drop. Alternatively, Inferno - Fire Staff Artifact can also drop from Commander Marius in Empyrean Forge Expedition. So if you complete this Expedition every time, you can get two Artifacts at once. Final Thoughts In conclusion, this guide covers all the new Artifacts that drop in New World: Aeternum Season of the Conquerors. Which Artifacts are you looking for? Which is your favorite new Artifact? Regardless, let’s embark on a journey to find all Artifacts in New World!Jan-23-2025

New World: The Fire Staff B ...
Greetings, fellow players! In today's discussion, we're diving deep into the reasons why Fire Staff builds stand out in New World Season 5. Our focus will be on the Nature's Wrath, a pivotal element within these builds. I'll meticulously examine every aspect to showcase the formidable power of this newly introduced artifact and some excellent gems, along with highlighting some remarkable synergies with the Fire Staff. So, without further ado, let's delve into it! About Nature's Wrath The Nature's Wrath, which is a new artifact if you haven't played in New World Season 5, that increases your base damage by 20% at the cost of never being able to gain a temporary Empower, the weird interaction with this, with Fire Staff, is that it actually has no net nerf to Fire Staff. It is very necessary to carry some New World Coins with you so that you can deal with other situations. Because 3 sources of Empowers in Fire Staff are all not temporary Empowers, they're conditional Empowers, and conditional Empowers are not stripped by this effect. So, Fire Staff can essentially gain 20% base damage for free, which results in it doing more damage. For the Nature's Wrath, you have to make a choice there where you're trading off some sort of burst that you would be getting from Empower for more consistency that you'd be getting from base damage. Empower for most weapons that are Elemental. You can typically have 14% associated with the damage ring of the Elemental. In this case, it would be a fire damage ring, and 7% associated with a Powerful Honing Stone, which brings you to 14. Add on the 10% that you'd be getting from a Runeglass by putting in a Runeglass in all your armor, you're up to 24. And then you add on these 2 extra 5%, then you're up to 34. You can add on the extra 20% that you get from Runes of Helios, and you're over that Empower cap. Runeglass Gems Another thing that kind of compounds with this problem is the advantage of Runeglass that Elemental damage-oriented weapons have. Runeglass from an elemental variant does Empower, and it has no active cooldown. It is a bigger value than it is for melee-oriented classes. Melee-oriented classes gain 1% base damage. It has a 1 second activation cooldown, versus something like the Fire Staff gains 2% in power, and it has no activation cooldown. So, Fire Staff is twice as powerful in terms of pure stats alone. Because you're gaining base damage, you need more Empower to get near that cap to maximize your damage overall. This is like a wonderful source of that everyone takes as a sacrifice to your armor rating. You drop from 2.5% on a typical gem to 2% for the armor rating. Elemental weapons inherently have an advantage with this, and people are using this with the Fire Staff to do incredible amounts of damage. They can essentially hit the Empower cap. Jasper Gem The Jasper is fixed in terms of Runeglass. Jasper is the best way to increase your Empower in New World Season 5. All you have to do is put it into your gem slot, and you will gain 24% Empower, which will consistently put you at or near the Empower cap for most weapons. This allows you to deal more damage than base damage. Essentially, maximizing each individual bucket results in more damage. That's why it's usually beneficial for certain weapons to not solely invest in base damage. It's better to maximize power. It's something that people can do to maximize damage on their builds in the game.Apr-23-2024

New World: These 4 Location ...
Greeting, fellow players! Today, I'm excited to share you 4 raw resources you can farm in specific locations to accumulate significant wealth in New World Season 5. Despite the drop in overall pricing in crafting, there are still straightforward methods to amass gold. Let me introduce them to you. Valuable Resources For gold making in the New World Season 5, the raw resources are the most important to focus on. After carefully analyzing the market, I identified the most valuable resources for gold-making. On my server, the top 4 resources are Ironwood, Lodestone, Dark Hide, and Orichalcum Ore. Ironwood stands out as the most lucrative, followed by Loadstone, which commands a price of 64 each. While Dark Hide is less expensive, its abundance makes it a worthwhile addition to the list, offering quick returns. Lastly, the Orichalcum Ore, though less profitable, remains notable for its availability. In the subsequent section of this guide, I will outline the 4 optimal locations for harvesting these 4 resources and then vendor for large number of wealth. By doing so, you can ensure that you are making the most efficient use of your time while gathering these valuable materials. 1. Edengrove - Ironwood Let's start by discussing prime locations for farming the Ironwood trees. One of the most favorable spots is found in Edengrove. Begin your journey at the Spirit Shrine, then proceed a short distance northward, circling through the area. In this location, you'll encounter a generous abundance of the Ironwood trees ripe for harvesting. Don't forget to leverage your consumables or, in some cases, utilize some of your New World Coins to optimize your overall output during this endeavor. 2. Weaver's Fen - Loadstone Let's talk about the Loadstone, a well-known resource in the New World. Head to the Weaver's Fen, just north of Glacial Tarn Shrine. If you open your map, you'll see a prime area for Loadstone farming. Start in a small circle, head north, and follow the direction. As you traverse, you'll encounter an abundance of Loadstone nodes. This area stands out as arguably the optimal spot for Loadstone farming, promising swift and bountiful returns. If you're seeking rapid profits, investing your time and effort into harvesting Loadstone is undoubtedly worthwhile. 3. Elysian Wilds - Dark Hide Continuing forward, let's explore one of the preferred regions for harvesting Dark Hide: the Elysan Wilds area, particularly in the upper right quadrant. While the entire map offers abundant Dark Hide, should you desire a more concentrated endeavor, directing your efforts to this specific locale proves fruitful. For those desiring a more targeted approach, directing your efforts towards the Alligators inhabiting this area yields significant advantages. I strongly advocate for the use of a spear when engaging these creatures, as it notably enhances efficiency and facilitates the collection process. 4. Reekwater - Orichalcum Ore Last but not least, for farming the Orichalcum Ore, we need to head to the lower right corner of Reekwater and there will be an abundance of resource. Head straight down, encountering a significant concentration of Orichalcum Ore Veins. While there are multiple locations to mine this resource, this area is to be the most condensed and efficient. I recommend mining before the Operas event and maximizing the yield. After mining the entire line of Orichalcum Ore Veins, join the Opera event, and upon completion, return to mine them again. This cycle repeats seamlessly. For those seeking optimal efficiency in farming Orichalcum, this spot in the lower right corner of Reekwater is undoubtedly the best choice.Apr-25-2024
