Which Weapon is Right For You? | All NEW WORLD Weapons & Abilities 

That's what I was gonna say. Like, "wth? Social Distancing? The devs have quite the humour."

@@RenkaKurogane Jeff has a nice sense of humor, huh?

Then gonna have the nerve to have disease right after 😂

My eyes still hurt from rolling so hard when I saw that skill...

I was falling asleep til i saw that. Smh, Im sure this will age poorly.

No 2H swords huh? Lame

thank you

taog

Yeah lol. They give the greataxe a cool, very magical, ability. Then all the others get mediocre, very realistic and not very magical, abilities. ._.

@@spin.chicken very realistic? how is Rapier's invulnerability realistic? or all of the other magical stuff going on that doesn't happen to include dimensional warping

@@Neon-Lines While the invulnerability isn't exactly realistic, it's also just a buff effect meant to simulate a riposte: a realistic technique.

Axe "I can chop most things" Great Axe "I CAN CHOP THE VERY FABRIC OF SPACE AND TIME"

Lol same. i didn't notice at first until i saw i was subbed.

I know right. The games looks very....basic for lack of a better word. The animations are wack

I mean, the game somewhat mirrors dark souls pvp. Not every weapon has fancy stuff plus this is a mmo and they could have performance issues. The pvp is one of the best i have ever played.

@@jonnymario771 I get that buy still doesn't mean they couldn't get creative, there's some amazing looking spells in dark souls, this mediocre spells they got going is do bad especially since that company is worth trillions

@@brandonlucky596 it's not about how flashy the animations look, it's about how they function. the main focus of this game is pvp and in a fast and dynamically evolving battle you dont have time to stand around locked into some fancy animation. you need the ability to get the job done so you can maximize your ability to move and to kill the enemy.

@@jonnymario771 the game us supposed to be action combat ans diverse when it comes to wepon atribute combinations but obly few combinations are viable. Plua need more wepons like daggers

Yeah fair, I need breadth for error but not completely braindead gameplay. For example, I make mistakes during gameplay but its not extremely often.

Hmm well if u read the ability it tells u damage and u can try the weapon to see the speed 🤣

What? It’s pretty self explanatory what weapons are used for utility and damage. Common sense..

Yeah there aren't too many options for mages to be stronger without making them best class

The only classes viable right now are tanks and healers.

@@mortis3732 Where can I get the stuff that you are smokin?

@@LordAnubis85 At your local store bro

meteor strike (more likely a small rain drop)

Didnt new world Just Release ?

@@florianmuller3955 i played the beta a bit but didnt get too into it since they delete your progress. but now its officially available im checking out which weapons are best suited for me

@@peterli5574 ah okay i thought so :) Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think after a couple of hours. Heard the Server ques are horrible tho

Which weapon did you go with?

@@florianmuller3955 its been pretty fun. i been gathering a lot instead of doing the actual story quest tho. ended up going with S&S and life staff pretty decent

Agreed Mon ami

I could imagine seeing a necromancer, as there already are skeletons and such. Having a few skeletons fight on your side is something that I could imagine people will love, but the pvp side will need balancing I guess

I agree. I usually go for the sorcerer/necromancy classes and I was really hoping for there to be one in this game.

Your right the only sorta pet is the ice Gauntlet turret.

Pets classes/options are a must for mmos for sure!

App my friends have it. I'm like how did I miss this but they didn't?

Trust me try it out definitely worth the $40 it’s really addicting 😍

Is it a good game for someone who doesn't want to do any gathering?

@@bestmimic Yea definitely. You might enjoy it after you start early gathering is just constant dopamine and alot of quests are kill/gather quests so you get some levels alongside leveling

its so good. you should 100% join the yellow cause :P For the spark of course~

I see you're a Man of Culture!

with a disease ability as immediate follow-up 😂

Shame it’s not dual wield hatchet though

if u get the perk “against all odds” the damage scales as long as you don’t switch weapons or change it. resets when u log out and when u switch weapons

I was looking for this comment, thanks, because as he was talking about the skills , i went : ok how about i get that skill from left tree, and this one from right tree, so yeah, good to know

@@davvixi9077 Just remember that the big passive at the bottom of the tree can only be acquired if you have 10 points on that side

This is what I was wondering. I half expected to only be able to use one side or the other. Thank you!

its kinda self explanatory that you can use both sides

those builds are confusing if rapier scales with dex and ice with int which do you choose?

@@Voltomess rapier also scales with INT, not just DEX

What do u mean

And can my cpu run this game at 60+ fps? R5 3500 1660 super Ram 16gb

@@ayushtt3649 I would say most likely. Maybe not at max graphics, but it will still look good. I have an i7 9700k, GTX 1070 oc, and 48Gb of RAM. I have it capped at 60, max graphics and I've not had any frame rate issues playing the game. Good luck with your build and the game!

Life staff hears you and agrees....hopefully as I level it'll be more interesting

@@danw3391 not sure what level you are but with life staff being pretty much the only way to AoE heal and also being a really strong self heal, its pretty high up on survivalbility and very strong in keeping many people alive. Strong AoE buffs and strong heals makes it a great party/PvP weapon if you're a solo player though, have another primary weapon and use the life staff as a secondary, not a primary if you're solo PvE

@@rtmln yea a life staff is less mage and more healer

Aww I like mage classes usually. Haven't played NW yet...still on the fence but was thinking of a battle mage class or something. Ice gauntlet with sword as second weapon....still researching

I played hundreds of hours of alpha and beta, take my advice, do not main mage other than healer. Its just so weak and it is understandable, its so easy in an mmo to make mages op but difficult to balance them with TRADITIONAL melee (so don't go crying out diablo or elder scrolls)

Yeah I am currently maining the musket and spear in the main game, but I was going to keep it that way just cause they share some stats for when you put your stat points in. What else would you combine with it? I think that Great Axe looks freakin awesome af, but I dont think it shares any stats with the musket. EDIT: Actually wait ... I could actually run a Great Axe with the musket because upgrading my Dexterity for the musket, will actually increase my strength as well for the Great Axe....

Yeah. Musket and rapier is also a good combo for both being Dex mains. You could also make mixed sets.

@@fishontv123 How does upgrading dexterity also upgrade strength? Also try war hammer with musked. Great for keeping distance.

@@dominiorrr6510 it adds to the bar for strength as well over time (you can see it move as well)

@@fishontv123 other bars too?

I'd say it depends on if you play solo or as a group. Levelling with ranged weapon is quite arduous, you fire one shot and the mob just run at your face, you have to engage from afar and be accurate or just dodge and shoot at melee range. But if you play with friends that keep the aggro it becomes hella fun since you can do your rotation properly (talking mostly about musket, didn't play bow much). Musket and bow are mainly for solo target burst imo, not playable solo vs packs.

Weapons damage is the damage listed on the weapon. The primary (and for most also secondary) Stat for the particular weapon also increases the damage of attacks as well

How bad is queue time?

@@Xyz-cr2sg they are fixed now. Queue times not a problem us servers at least.

@@ThePrinceGamingUK thanks. Was thinking about getting it but then I heard about the queue.

the trapper tree with the musket paired with the rapier is better imo.

Maybe for new contents. I heard they are planning to have naval games in thr future. So we could link the dots. Sea, shipwreck etc.

Hmm, MH Great sword main? Lol

more weapons in database..

It will come, it was already shown in some trailers and in the data.

@@Malakith Hard pass. Wouldn't play even if you paid me.

@@spin.chicken oh no. What a nightmare. please. Don't leave. We all dearly care if you play...

A spear player could very easily mess that up with a spear throw in the zoner tree. And a bow can very easily out range a musket

plenty of stuns ans gap close for melee. You need to position well when you're using musket.

Morrowind didn't come out in the 90s. There isn't a remaster.

nope. only sword and shield. 😞

yeah, I don't think the devs know what a meter is

Meter is the thing they use to measure feets or inches... so, most likely 1 meter is about 6cm in american units.

@@chettonex what

So far it is…:(

@@LastOnlineYesterday Yeah, I'll probably pass on the game if an explosion looks like a thin red ring of sparks 😅

@@thewarmarshal I’ve played every MMO there is and it’s actually extremely fun. It’s just starting out, there will be updates and expansions and gameplay tweaks so I’m not really bugging. The game looks and plays beautifully, the audio design is really killer as well I’m big on that. If you’re a fan of MMOs and you got money to spend I’d highly recommend at least giving it a go for a week. I skipped beta and came into this game completely blind and I definitely give it a 8/10 so far.

@@LastOnlineYesterday how are the queues? I hear they are anywhere between 2 to 6 hours?

@@thewarmarshal yea 1+ hours feels like

Found the bow better to solo with, only slightly better. The musket is slow and requires head shots to work effectively. Even going with the trap ability to slow your enemy doesn't work well as it's only for 3 seconds while reloading the musket takes that long anyway so it's not much help and only good against one creature that doesn't dodge.

They're cool but also are very conditional and require a lot of good gear. If you're looking to start out and have a more enjoyable early game I recommend you go into lifestaff + waraxe/ hammer. Split your time between the three weapons and you will be desired in all raid parties AND have a very easy time leveling. My biggest recommendation to all DPS players is too not be afraid to run raids multiple times and make sure to grind your weapon levels. Dont be afraid to buy gear to get focus + intelligence as Focus will allow you to get greater mana regen and maximum mana. I my self run Life staff + Ice gauntlet and I had a fantastic time late game just slamming down my abilities and sitting in ice block to heal.

I think the magic weapons and animations are underwhelming. A fireball is supposed to be a fireball instead of a firecracker.

@@a_tired_dad exactly

Nope. Maybe later.

Longsword will come, its already shown shortly in a teaser and its in the game data. Not sure about dual wield, but it'll probably come too in some form.

And Guild wars did it before that. It's a common enough system for action MMOs.

@@ScabbyMcKniel guildwars? guildwars had class based skills, if you talk about guild wars2 those weapon skills differ from every class( greatsword in the hands of a warrior got different skills than mesmer). what i ment is in eso you got skill trees for each weapon type just like here .. just their you had even more skill trees, so what i m trying to say this feels a bit like eso light ^^
