Baggins, I have watched you for some years now, and I cannot express my absolute appreciation for your hard work and efforts. Even despite AGS's oblivious decisions on their ambiguous roadmaps and QOL mechanics, you have an incredible talent in conveying the games many good points, and providing us all with fantastic and amusing commentary on TWITCH. Keep up the great work, you are inspiring me to dive into streaming as well. Cheers !
Still playing since launch day, never played any game similar to this, always played Cod since I was 11. Your videos have helped me so much, thank you l.
Been a big fan for while but first comment just want to give my appreciation for the detail and quality of your videos they’re so in depth, as well as being straight to the point. Thanks Baggins.
At the risk of coming across as hyperbole Baggins, you’re the most helpful creator I think I’ve ever watched. I’ve never played an MMO in my life before New World at original launch 3 years ago. I’ve been watching now for a couple years and your videos, Discord guides and conversation on stream is unmatched. Thanks for all your hard work and helping others gamers enjoy New World.
Great video as always. I would like to see a video on the differences in Aeternum like for example Con 300, in the "old game" it gave you grit, which was a staple of your Soloist build, but now it only gives grit on heavy attacks. Also no one has really talked about the Cutless Key pve zone. Daily quests give you 35 d-blooms (don't make me spell it), and look here, you can buy the epic goldcursed crates 3 for 35 each, each day. So for us, fairly certain I suck at the game just fighting AI, we don't have to fight others who are going to steal our d-blooms.
Baggins AGS should employ you your keeping the new players locked in right now appreciate all your videos have been enjoying the game 2-3x more with your videos for clarity and not getting overwhelmed.
My dumb noobie level 32's brain just went in to vapor lock just by looking at the screens you're pulling up. I'm gonna go chop some trees down and maybe fish a little...
Yo man this is my first round with New World I didn’t have a PC when it first came out so I’m getting my chance now. Your vids have given me so much helpful info so thank you 🙏 Plus the Lord of the rings reference as your name 👌 thanks for the vids man.
You literaly save my live, in game. I was wondering 2 days ago how i am gonna know what's good or not and you posted the video. I swear this is a sign.
Awesome!!!!! Any chance for a video outlining debuffs and which weapon contributes to each debuffs? Maybe a party setup that would be able to max out certain debuffs. Also buffs by weapon and similar maxed party setup or something like that lol Thanks for the content over the years!
Thank you for this breakdown. The gearing in this game is a bit overwhelming when you start looking towards optimizing for end game, with the sheer variety of combinations that are possible. I especially appreciate the "perk bucket" description...i did not know about that at all. I would be curious to see a video about gems and rune glass and that aspect of gearing. Maybe its a simple concept but I'd be curious if there were any less obvious secrets to understand about using those while you gear up.
Really informative video! Is it possible if you could include a video discussing market prices for weapons/armor? I’ve seen some crazy listings like 200k+ and I’m sure most people want to have a healthy market and avoid high listing fees etc.
Thank you Very Much Baggins Since the Begining of New world i only watch your video and i have all the information i need Great explanation (Srry english not my first languague ) but Everytime i have a question i know you have a video on it to help us! :D Amazing work you do , you are not juste Saying Take this this and this you explain with visual and dept Love it!
Thank you for the video learned a lot ! Is there a way to reroll perks on items ? I see a lot of people have inventories full of items even just purple ones ? Are they keeping them because they can later upgrade them to legendary or reroll some perks ?
I just realised New World has no loot filters and many possible bonuses on the gear. It's giving a bit of Diablo 4 vibes here but it's okay. Great video, useful, thank you!
My main question on gear, is a 2 perk item basically vendor trash since your missing an entire stat line? Is there an ilvl requirement for 3 perks? Like 675 legendary only? I have a mountain of purple gear that I am scared to salvage bc there could be some secret way to upgrade it to 3 perks
Hey I have a question if you don't mind a little off topic! If I'm not mistaken, reaching 25 and 50 strength gives you a bonus to the light and heavy attacks. Is this melee only or does it apply to physical ranged damage like the bow? I'm assuming it won't apply to magical weapons like the fire staff.
Coming back to the game and seeing "Refreshing Evasion" gone makes me really sad. It created such a interesting way of playing group PvE as a DPS and added another layer of skill. Deciding if you can afford to dodge to increase DPS or if you need that dodge in the next couple seconds to avoid something was a cool way to learn the mechanics of a boss fight. Also it gave the PvE a little bit more "life" (for the lack of a better word for it). Now you stand behind the boss and spam your "rotation" and that's pretty much it. Feels very stale at the moment imho. Anyways, glad that besides that there hasn't changed all too much besides that and the bane perks (so glad they're gone), so I don't have to re-learn that part of the game also. Thanks for the video!
Really really REALLY good guide! I'm a new player that is about to hit 65 and this was a learning curve I was so confused about and this clarify everything. I'm still struggling to figure out if I should be light or medium gear weight like should I be mixing?
Hey man thx for video! Can you make a video about kinl ? How to change perks with matrix on named items and artifacts? Where to get all the mats I need etc? Thx
I have a very important question for you...is resistance capped at 50% ? like ice resistnace, thrust resistance, also fortify is maxed at 50%? If u have 30% fortify then it takes up from the total ice resistance and u have like 30% fortify and 20% ice resistance? instead of adding up 50% ice + 30 fortify?! If i have 8 stones + amulet with 15% the total resistance is capped to 50 or 63% ? I'm very confused, there is no official information about this, only rumors on reddit
Great video. One question by the way, Enchanted ward is it stacking if I get it on all armor pieces? Just because it doesnt say that stacks 1/4 like Refreshing.
Confused so you cant have them on seperate armor slots? Example helm has elemental aversion and chest has enchanted ward? Even tho they both have the same tag/label? I tonight this rules for the same exact armor piece. Like enchanted ward and elemental aversion can’t both go on helm. But can go on helm and chest each x2 ?
So, it seem that the flail Furious Kraken, one of the weapons you can get from the Well of Fortune, is the only one not being a Named item... does that mean it is the only one that cannot be upgraded to 725?
Help, I ran across a place in game that has snow. Were is it ? Nearest territory? Nearest town? And what is the nearest fast travel. Thanks in advance.
TLDR; Base damage vs Slash/thrust etc damage on weapon, how much is a “small/medium/large boost to x” (on mount equipment for example small boost to dash recharge” Great videos dude! Quick question about choosing weapon stats, if I have two similar swords drop with identical perks and gear score, but one had (for example) 1000 Base damage and 199 Slash damage and the other had 999 Base Damage but 200 slash damage, I’m not sure how to interpret these stats properly to make an educated decision. I see a lot, if not all, abilities scale off of “x% Base Weapon Damage” so I prioritized that but I feel like I’m missing something. I feel like NW has a tendency to give vague descriptions on some items “small boost of x” is small boost 1%, 5% .000001%? Would anyone mind giving a brief explanation of these things? Thank you! Have a lovely day!
Im going to use melee as a example, keen, vicious, & thwarting strikes was basically considered BIS the 1st year ish of the game back in 2021. When I see Keen or vicious on a weapon now it makes me want to puke lmao! Thwarting I still use I feel like that's a must if you have grit a lot then 2 other perks
Yeah I’m confusing myself in the trade shop…I’ll buy an item I think is good for a few thousand only to find a better one for the same price or cheaper later 😂😂
Ironically im farming the endgame pvp area for some 700+ gear my goal is for me and my friend to be strong enough to do raids since we got washed last time Hes a tank im a support we played these roles since most of the player base are damages
Then once you get all that gear, you can sit in town because there is no end game content. End game is just a different item level of gear without any benefit at all.
Hey Baggins, a large group of us playing are having trouble getting into the hive of gordon or lost with how to obtain end game gear i feel like the whole community would love a guide on how to get into the raid on fresh start servers and best way to get items from the pvp zones etc
@@D3simal ahhh good to know, so just checking they haven't been replaced by anything, as before I remember needing to have to have a weapon/armour for all different expedition mutations - one ancient, one angry earth etc. Is it now just go with your best weapon?
@@sherbertlemons7393 now You have the Aversion perk on gear, plus You can always use gems in armor to get X resistance up. For weapons - with random muta finder You wont always get a party fully prepared to damage certain mob types, but for Your own sake I'd highly suggest keeping weapons for all of them
@@D3simal good stuff, thanks. Final question - is it still the case that like the ancient take more damage from magic, angry earth takes more damage from fire etc? I can't remember what the damage increases were exactly but it was something like that
Stamina recovery blows since the nerf. You definitely don't want stamina recovery anymore. Healing breeze got a buff. Not a nerf. Is this an outdated video?
@GenDrake3 Stamina Recovery is still strong, I addressed the nerf in the video. Healing Breeze categorically got nerfed for everyone but Life Staff users. What are you talking about?
Thorny Reflections seems kinda meh. 7% reflection of a 4k hit is only 280 and the 10% crit chance reduction is just the passive buff on most the stuff for a few secs. AND...this is all if it's only a crtical hit on you, so.....meh imo.
Man this is top tier creator mode. Not only is it hard to find info on what's good and not good in New World (have played this game since launch and on my second fresh start server and still had no idea what BIS was for anything until I watched this) it's also hard to find people who give us a FLASHBANG WARNING (some of us have eyes that are pretty sensitive to light.) Take my like and subscribe.
Basically all the higher end areas after you've hit max lvl and you're doing all the end game stuff. A lot of the stuff I have I've either bought or crafted. Using the Nw database for really good named item drops is another thing I'll do too.
Ankh is not allways very good even if you runing shirking heals with tumblers for example. Lets say I rely on leeching flurry in my rapier with lifestrealing and leeching and everything - ankh would nerf my lifegain hard so I better use elemrntal band)
