Spelers van New World vragen eigenlijk al een tijdje om meer content voor de Endgame. Nu lijkt het er eindelijk op dat Amazon gehoor geeft in de nieuwe update. De patch note is best pittig, hieronder vindt je de grootste aanpassingen.
De nieuwe update komt om te beginnen met een expedition aanpassing, genaamd Mutators. Mutated expeditions geeft spelers de kans om het op te nemen tegen aangepaste vijanden welke ze eerder al tegen kwamen, hierop moet je aanpassen om ze te verslaan. Een gemuteerde expeditie voltooien geeft je grotere en betere beloningen.
Het endgame Umbral upgrade system is ook aangepast, deze geeft spelers de optie indivuele gear stukken te upgraden doormiddel van Umbral shards.
Check de korte samenvatting hieronder of ga even naar de website voor de mega lijst.
New World January Update Key Changes
Umbral Upgrade System
- Players can upgrade individual gear pieces from GS 590 to GS 625, by spending Umbral Shards. Note we reduced this requirement from GS 600 to GS 590 based on PTR feedback and the desire to require Legendary items to engage in the Umbral System.
- The ability to upgrade items of any type is unlocked when players hit 600 Expertise for that item type.
- Players can acquire Umbral Shards via three methods:
- Expedition Mutators are the most efficient way to earn Shards. The higher the difficulty level and the higher the Score Rank achieved the the more Shards a player will earn.
- Opening Gypsum Casts, once the expertise of that type has reached at least 600 Expertise.
- Crafting 600 GS items, once the expertise of that type has reached at least 600 Expertise.
- Upgrading any item via Umbral Shards binds the item to player.
Expertise System Updates
- Players raise their Expertise from 590 to 600 through the current means; Gypsum Casts and random open world bumps.
- Expertise is increased from 600 to 625 via the Umbral System.
- Expertise Gear Scaling
- Any item that is purchased from the trading post or acquired through P2P after the January patch will have its effective gear score scaled down to the mid point of players Expertise and the items gear score if their Expertise is lower than the item’s gear score.
General Enhancements & QoL Improvements
- Whenever you craft a GS 600 item, if your Expertise for that item type is under 600 it will trigger an Expertise bump. This will be another great way for crafters to get their expertise to 600 (in addition to the already released Emerald Gypsum from Trade Skill Aptitude Reward containers).
- If you get an Expertise bump from random drop in the open world, the loot ticker will now show which item gave you the Expertise bump.
- If you get an Expertise bump from opening a reward cache, the opening sequence will highlight which item gave you the bump.
- You can now craft the Topaz Gypsum Attunement Potion at any Arcana Station as well as any T5 Camp.
- Increased the odds of getting Topaz Gypsum when killing enemies and attuned.
- We addressed an issue where Gypsum casts were only providing +1 bonuses when opening above gear score 585 for an item. Now, upgrades from Gypsum Casts from 585 to 600 should be at least +2 except when expertise is 599.
- To allow players more access to use Gypsum more freely as they acquire it we’ve removed the crafting cooldowns on Gypsum Orbs.
