2 sturdy perks does not stack together. Is it a bug?

@Luxendra @Aenwyn

  • What is your character name in New World: PaIadin
  • What server/world did you experience your issue on: Dry Tree
  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Perk “Sturdy” does not stack from shield and sword. Only one copy of this perk only on shield or only on sword works properly. But they does not stack together when I equip shield and sword both with this perk (stamina damage is same as when I use only one item with this perk).
  • Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug?
  • (if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: It affects PvE and PvP balance. Tanks already not in a good state. And such bugs additionally decrease low effectiveness of SnS tanks.
  • (if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: No.
  • (if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced:
    2 sturdy perks does not stack together. Is it a bug? - YouTube
  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced:
  1. Equip shield with sturdy perk.
  2. Equip sword with sturdy perk.
  3. See that when you use 2 sturdy perks incoming stamina damage is same when you use only one sturdy perk.

Screenshot of my shield and sword:

It took me half year (since launch of the game) to get this very very rare sword (it is one of two super rare named swords with sturdy perk). Needless to say how it feels to have so many efforts wasted.

Fix this bug please to make two sturdy perks stack together.

Perks between the sword and shield were never supposed to stack.

But for example 2 “keen” perks from sword and round shield stacks aren’t they?

Right now yes. They aren’t supposed to though. I think that certain perks were stacking before the current shield perk bug, but they weren’t supposed to

Is there any official info about this? Just want to know for sure.

The last info that I remember about 2 sturdy perks on shield and sword (from relatively old closed tests) that they stacked together.

Updated main post with link at the video proof.

In support live chat I got answer from the dev team that 2 “sturdy” perks work fine but as you can see at the video they actually don’t.

Thank you very much for your reply! :slight_smile:

Sorry for the delay, but I have received confirmation that it’s not meant to stack and that this is by design.

Suggestion: Add “non-stacking” or the like to the description -OR- add “telepathy required” to the system requirements for the game.
