After months of gameplay I remember only 1 item that I rolled from a cast being somewhat good and luckily in touch with build I was using at the time. I remember because I salvaged it pretty much two days after. Something better came along that (surprise) was not a cast drop.
They should have the first crate of OPR gaurantee a random legendary or something. I’ve gotten maybe 2 legendaries total out of countless chests.
We all know 2 perk gear is pretty unusable and very subpar. 3 useful perks is the only thing to get excited about.
Even if it’s resil refreshing and something like vigor. Vigor isn’t freedom, but it’s still alright, but nobody gets excited for that. Let alone resil and refreshing alone. Voidbent is essentially better.
Shirking and resil is alright, but we also need weapon perks.
I literally said this after finally getting Timekeeper’s Hand from Leviathan after a solid month of farming multiple hours a day. “At least now I don’t have to ever come back here again”.
OPR gear should only have one stat line. There are too many dead split stat attributes that can roll. Most egregious offenders are the split stat Focus suffixes.
Examples:
STR primary stat + FOC secondary stat [of the Monk suffix]
DEX primary stat + FOC secondary stat [of the Duelist suffix]
INT primary stat + FOC secondary stat [of the Mage suffix]
FOC primary stat + STR secondary stat [of the Zealot suffix]
FOC primary stat + DEX secondary stat [of the Artificer suffix]
FOC primary stat + INT secondary stat [of the Priest suffix]

People did get to try that game, actually, and they almost universally hated it, just like pretty much everyone ends up hating full-loot PvP games. It’s an unbelievably niche genre that sounds fun in theory, but is just frustrating in practice.
Does anyone remember how much noise was generated for Mortal Online 2? How it was God’s gift to the full-loot PvP sandbox genre? It peaked at under 10k concurrent players, and barely scrapes together 1k now. It’s just a shit genre that nobody likes. Empirically.

Not including farming gear, I have about 6 sets of armor I use. A mutation set for each dungeon type, and a heavy strength pvp set, a medium strength pvp set, and a light int pvp set. I have my axe, hammer, hatchet, spear, fire staff, and ice gauntlet that I honestly think are exactly what I want and not looking for anything else right now. So in all, it’s about 60 pieces of gear and 6 weapons. When you consider the thousands pieces of gear you get from chests, but only need to 60 pieces, of course the vast majority of them are going to be junk compared to what you have.

Totally agree with everything everyone has said.
The loot system in this game is whack. Even my love for this game is beginning to dwindle.
Weapons, crafting, loot system and combat is all based on a different game that it used to be. They are in the middle of massively overhauling the entire game. I think they can do it successfully.
We just gotta keep bitching and complaining and this game will be good. 
I’ve opened a lot myself…and gotten some nice stuff out of it. Anything absolutely BIS? Naw…did get an amazing 600 Blunderbus out of it though. Not #1 bis…but i believe top 5.
Haven’t gotten a useful 600 though.
With the purples…you can gear yourself up with a decent starter set.
Assuming you already have 600 expertise in everything…which is a grind and a half…

and thats just it. by the time you are 600, you already have better gear than anything crates or casts will give you.
You can buy good 2 perk gear on the TP for less than 5k thats better than anything you will ever get from crates or casts.
Hey, moderator. Are you looking at this? Do your work. Give this obvious opinion to the developers!
This game lost 99% of the player base because all the systems you made are garbage.

This whole game is fully designed for full loot pvp content. Where u dont wear gucci gear, thats why we have what we have, I dont know how they could change it really xd. But if they left this idea after 2nd alpha why they have not changed it ? Dunno ask Devs. Same story like in Albion mostly you wear what u looted. Why players are scared idea of losing something forever which I dont understand where mostly u dont even buy it stop being carebears.

I played almost for 2k hours and I still have 4 Heavy Voidbent pieces as my main armor. That say all about the RNG system. I would love something to be hard or grind but to have a clear reward. Like for example put some PVP armor sets 590+ in faction store and let me grind as crazy faction tokens to get it.
Albion has really good system and dont tell me u lose 10 hours if u die, if on most cases u wear in Albion 1kk or less worth eq … same would be here. If this game is made for p2w? Doubt I just dont see it and I have never saw in New World is total 0 p2w u have skins, furniture and thats all … ohh and u can buy dye for IS. Full Loot in Albion works fantastic ofc they are people who complain on it cuz they cant wear they 8.3 masterpieces in black zones without risk of lose it.
Hello,
New player here, And am gonna say you have not leveled up a toon since launch. The gear sold in the faction store are kind of trash, let me break it down
AT level 15 you can buy your first item, But you look and the next level item is 20, so why waste tokens for 5 levels right? ok so you wait for level 20…but you cant do the faction quest to unlock that level 20 gear till you are level 25…OK, at 25 I do the faction quest, and boom rush to buy a weapon, and every single piece is worse then what I already have, and this should last me till 32?
My favourite is the crafting. I easily spent about 1 mill on it to make it to 200 and then craft loads of muskets/BBs and I salvaged 99% of them. Sold a few for a few hundreds or thousands not even the same amount as the matt price it needed.
I completely gave up on crafting, Im just selling my matts and done with it, not worth it. I crafted atleast 100 musket and not received a single good 3 perk musket, not saying BIS, just 3 usable perk. Not a single one.

They’ll just ignore all of this, of course, and maybe add some more random perks to the game so our rng odds to get a better piece of gear sinks down further into the abyss.
This game has a lot of potential, seriously. It’s just a shame it is being led by a group of blind people.
We do complain a lot, we sure do, but we do this because we care about the game and want it to be better. These aren’t just some random complaints, you hear about this kind of stuff all day long.
If you guys take too long to make some changes, people will just stop caring about the game and quit.

As a non-existent player, I appreciate New World’s attention to my needs.
I have probably 5000lbs of gear that I refuse to sort or utilize. It’s a garbage grind just to enjoy the junk gear you’ve worked so hard to waste!
