New World Guide

This New World game guide and walkthrough is a comprehensive source of knowledge describing all the aspects of this MMORPG production. Our tips for beginners will introduce you to this huge world filled with monsters, independent characters, as well as other players. The first chapter of this walkthrough describes the basic mechanics of the game. We will guide you through the process of creating your character, provide tips on how to develop them, explain how to effectively fight enemies, and show you how to build your own camp. We also described factions and companies, as well as how crafting and PvP works and what expeditions/raids are.

Then, the FAQ should address most questions you might still have about New World. This should be a good, complementary source of knowledge. How to buy your own home, where to look for raw materials, what to do at the beginning of the game or how to use fast travel.

In turn, the chapter about weapon proficiencies focuses on an extremely important element of character development in New World. You will find all weapons skill trees and advice on which weapon skills are the best. We haven't forgotten about the other skills, either. In our guide, we've included a description of the three available professions - crafting, processing, and collecting.

Equally helpful is the section focused on the best character builds. Here, you will learn how to develop your character to fight enemies more effectively. Our descriptions of some of the best builds will help you adapt your character's development path to your playstyle in New World.
