New World Leveling Guide - The Fastest Way To Level Up Your Character And Trade Skills
An explanation of how to level up your character and trade skills in the New World.
Want to know how to level up in New World? It's not every day we get a brand new big budget MMO game, and this one has been on our radar for months. Its pirate theme is very different from your usual fantasy setting. If you focus more on PVP, you may feel the need to level up quickly to match your competition.
There are three different leveling systems in New World: one for increasing your base character's stats, one for your weapon skills, and one for trading skills. Each of them has best practices for quickly ranking them, but knowing how to do it alone can be tricky.
Once you've managed to find a relatively stable New World server, we're here to help. This guide will cover all the ways to gain experience to level up your character, trade skills, and weapon skills. This will allow you to explore the first of the MMO raids (known as "expeditions" in the game) faster.
New World Leveling Attributes
Each time you level up, you can add a point to one of five attributes. This means you can spend 71 points to level up. Equipped items also grant points when you wear or use them. In addition, there are item slots that you can place jewels in to increase the stats of your attributes even more.
Make sure you put points into attributes that directly affect your attack method. For example, melee weapons increase their attack power if you boost the strength attribute, magic by focus, and ranged weapons by agility.
Here are all the attributes of the New World and what they increase:
- Body type : increases base health
- Agility : Increases the base damage of ranged weapons.
- Фокус : Increases base mana and reduces cooldown
- Intelligence : increases basic magic attack
- Force : Increases the base damage of melee weapons

New World Leveling Tips
Here are our top tips for leveling in the New World:
- Every time you exit the New World, make sure you're in a settlement: you'll get a bonus to Rested XP when you return.
- Quests, which can be found on the City Council of Projects, are the fastest way to level up. Sometimes you can complete quests by buying items at the auction in the city.
- Improve the position of your city and increase the amount of experience you can get in this area to get a bonus to the experience rewards for completing any quest.
- Take the side quests that will be done along with the main quest. You can finish it along the way
- Hit a monster if another player fights it once to gain experience and weapon mastery. Other players still gain experience and weapon mastery for defeating them, so you don't upset them.
- You can accept up to 12 city missions at the same time. This will give you a lot of experience, coins and settlement reputation.
- Completing faction missions from your faction's representative New World in each city gives you a certain amount of experience. Also, faction missions scale based on your current area, so higher tier regions give you more experience.
- You gain bonus experience from faction quests if there are any daily bonuses available on the faction board (displayed at the top of the screen when talking to your faction representative)
- Finding fast travel shrines will help you quickly travel to different regions. Also, consider owning a house in a separate city from the hotel you signed up for, so you have more options for fast travel.
- If you level up your trading skills, you also get a nominal amount of total experience.
- Weapons in the new world level up separately to your character level, and PVP combat is the best place to quickly gain experience and learn new skills.

How to level up your trading skills
For each trading skill, you need to perform a certain action in order to increase its experience level. For example, crafting skills require you to craft items at the appropriate facility in the city. Similarly, refinement skills require you to turn raw materials into valuable crafting items.
These two types of trading skills level up relatively quickly compared to Gathering skills, which level up slowly after performing certain actions.
Craft
Creating new weapons and armor requires significant resources. If you wish to return some of the materials you have used, please immediately salvage any equipment you have created.
- Weapon case - craft weapons at the forge
- Armor - Craft armor at an outfitting station or a forge.
- Engineering - Craft any item that grants Engineering at the Workshop or Forge.
- Jewelcrafting - craft amulets and other jewelry at the outfitting station.
- Arcana - Craft items and potions in the secret vault.
- Cookery - cook food in any camp or an ingredient in the kitchen
- Furnishings - make any piece of furniture in the workshop.
Refining
- Fuse - Turn ore into ingots or wood into charcoal at the smelter.
- Woodworking - Turn green wood into wooden planks in the carpentry workshop.
- Leatherworking - Turn rawhide into roughhide at the tannery.
- Weaving - turn fibers into fabric on any loom
- stone processing - turn the extracted minerals into blocks on the table for stone cutting.
A MEETING
While you only need a basic tier XNUMX flint/wood tool to gather resources, the higher tier tools you can craft with iron or crafted wood will make tasks a little faster. It's also worth noting that the size of the resource you collect reflects how much experience you get for that gathering skill. For example, a thick tree gives more experience when felling than cutting a thinner trunk. You can also use rod baits to increase the biting speed of the fish. You can check out our detailed guide to fishing in the New World as it can be one of the most lucrative ways to make money from New World at trading posts.
