Medium Armor is STRONG | Musket/Rapier PVP Commentary and Build | New World 1.1.2



I have a video in the works about the 1.2 changes, but today we’re doing a PVP commentary with Medium Armor. I’ll be honest with you guys – I think Medium is straight up stronger than Light, and it’s going to be even more so with the changes coming in 1.2.

  1. yo ! great work with the first commentary vid, keep practicing and soon it'll be natural to you and it will flow. audio is better than previous vids and i can hear you now. two things, why medium for 1.2? and just try to relax and talk through the whole commentary about whats going through your head the whole time to keep it feeling natural!

  2. Nice video Kutsuu! I’m also a NW Musket PVP YouTuber so it’s great seeing more of us out here! Also how do you feel about the new changes to musket & rapier in the new 1.2 update?

  3. In my experience, getting ambushed while using light armor can be troublesome; but 1vX is so much easier. In those situations you showcased here, if you were in light armor you might have been killed a bit sooner, but you also would have been able to create much more distance. When I use medium, even though more damage is mitigated, I just can't get away from people and can't make those sick plays. That, in turn, results in me being smacked around by a hammer or something. However, in any 1v1 situation I find medium to be much better.

  4. Great job on the commentary. Practice might make it more comfortable for you, but it's fine already for my money. I always love it when someone comments on what they were thinking, it gives the rest of us some great insights into how we might modify our own game play. I was using light armor with musket/rapier, but then with farming gear on I accidently went to medium, but just kept it on. I actually quite like using the medium, just the extra tankiness is nice.

  5. Hey gj as always! As a medium armor musket user and theorycrafter I recommend you to try this build: 300 dex, 100 int and 100 con (with food and high gs you should be able to achieve this number).

    You put an onyx in the musket since the first shot is usually the weakest. This build is the best antiranged build for me since my server is plagued with LA elemental musket users and it works very well. Also you can have almost 10000 hp, you will do less damage vs melee but now they wont be able to 3shot you.

    I will probably do a video for the spanish community soon with this build explaining everything.
