New World High Watermark vs Crafting Gear! BIS May Surprise You!



New World High Watermark vs Crafting High Gear Score Loot. Through the Open World Farming System loot drops you can raise your watermark to allow you to get 600 gear score items in dungeons / expeditions. Before we speculated that crafting gear would be best in slot (BIS) due to the ability to pick some stats and randomize others. The material sink for this is quite high and some new information has arisen! The developers stated that the material cost to craft keys was too high and they would be lowering that sometime in November. In addition to some dungeon gear rolling with pre determined stats that are best in slot, we will then have a more reliable way to get the best items through multiple dungeon runs. Raising your watermark through open world farming lvl 65+ monsters and elite chests might just be the way to go!

  1. What are you thoughts on dungeon gear vs crafted gear? With the replica dungeon series you can control the stat and 1 perk just to mention so crafting gains a bit of a boost! Credit for reminder RussianDood

    How easy should expedition / dungeon keys be to craft?

  2. When i digged into crafting in the beta my conclusion was that it isn't of any use in endgame and your assumption in this video – based on facts – proofs me right. Because of my conclusion from the beta i am selling everything i gather and refine, because crafting is just dogshit. Cooking and Alchemy seems to be OKish, although i also can buy stuff pretty cheap from the auctionhouse in comparison to the opportunity cost i have while gathering for Alchemy/Cooking. So i'd rather gather very expensive stuff to refine and sell it, to then buy other things and still have a profit than push the crafting skills.

    So overall i think that AGS also wants to provide good content for PvE Players which will always end up in rewardable dungeons compared to the crafted stuff. I personally think that crafting will dry out very very fast after people have Voidbent or whatever and then realise that crafting isn't good in comparison to the watermark.

  3. You are joking right? I thought you played this game since beta, this was obvious since the very beginning, crafted gear is better ONLY because you can buy it, otherwise it is too expensive and time consuming (not worth it). It is MUCH more effective to raise your watermark and just get legendary from Lazarus or Genesis.

  4. Malevolence, eh? I was 2-manning, 1 hatcheting the place with the missus for the rapier quest. Stopped after we killed the bear at the top but I found the low density of the mobs in here pretty relaxing for solo/duos.

  5. I kinda hate the crafting meta. Don’t get me wrong it’s great that you can craft, but the best gear for every slot should not be cartable. The end game is legit just a big cycle of hitting rocks to get rare rocks to make into ingots to craft armor. There is 0 endgame content that is engaging, dungeons are shit and the loot is kinda shit. I’m 591 watermark on all pieces and I have like 550 hours played.

  6. i mean, something you didnt talk about is HOW much time u are going to need to grind to raise ur watermark to around 580, is going to take ALOT of endless grind to increase it

  7. Buttttt, Why waste 500hours in crafted gear, while spending 10hours in PvP (quests) for gear & 490hours in War, Outpost, fun.

    Edit: Not saying that the crafter gear is worse then the PvP set but compared on the bases % & how bugged it is at the moment and with the fights in multicombat its not worth the time you spend on making it.

  8. If best in slot gear doesn't come from crafting, then the crafting system in this game will be an abject failure because there's literally no other reason to craft armor, weapons, or jewelry at this point.
