And what I would call decent, usable sets for:
Light Bow/Rapier
Medium GA/WH
Heavy SnS/Hatchet/GA PvE tanking set
And a light PvP healing set for OPR if we’re down a healer.
That’s on my main. I keep different sets by settlement going straight down the inventory drop down menu. So Eastburn (tanking set), Cleaves point (intel), Brightwood (focus), Restless shores (strength) and Windsward (dex).
My alt is a healer and …that’s it.
It’s a pain. I also don’t want to know how much I’ve spent on gear lol.
1 x PvP
4 x Tanking (not really necessary but might as well get as much mitigation as possible)
4 x DPS
4 x Healing
1 x Invasions
5 x Gathering
5 x Refining
5 x Crafting
and saving any decent Beast Ward pieces I run across in the eventuality they at a Wildlife-based expedition or arena in the future (so another 3x for the roles on that)
At this point, the highest friction point in the game for me is dealing with all of these sets so adding a Wardrobe feature would be much appreciated.
This is how many 625 pieces that I was actively using in sets before the update.
I used an additional 280,000 shards upgrading pieces from the time of the update to now, but no reason to make a new video.
This one alone shows us how badly we need sets. When I wrote my first RPG, I coded in a profile loadout editor as quickly as soon as possible. It’s a no-brainer that it’s required by anyone who plays a loot-based RPG.
Wayyyy too many. I know they are working on it, but I am oh so excited for it’s release. Especially now that I’m swapping gear mid dungeon.
I got 4+ PVE healer sets. Even a simple “folder” option would suffice for me. Being able to create a “gear set folder” in your inventory. Drag in all of your lost ward gear and name it “Lost Ward Gear.” Then maybe customize the icon/color to make it even easier to find. Then have it so you can just right click “equip all” and call it a day! Woo!
I do feel that New World lookslike a lot like a pile of junk mail
Lots of stuff and can t classify them correctly into a BAG or different place in bank
5 then u need pvp gear as for getting ok or bis u need to have 900k gold
So only new world Andy’s get its rest just leave for the upcoming mmos from riot and that other one and AoC but m9 can be done with out ward gear but people in new world want ward gear for
M1 lol . And I forget u need around 200k to get shards or play the game for 20 hours per day
And if u find out u wanna play something else u need a other 900k to make a new setup lol
Tbh I dislike that so much customisation is gear based. I love playing multiple specs and trying out things, in other games I have tons of alts. What I dont enjoy is having to constantly juggle and find gear just because I want to try out new builds. Id much prefer that for example, weapon perks where things you unlocked, even from drops. Gear management is a major pita and I think its poor design and Ive basically decided just to stick with one set and try and improve it. I think horizontal progression is more more interesting than power creep and nw does it poorly.
I have too many sets to count, but I carry six with me all the time.
Two dps sets for muts
Two healer sets for muts
One general use pvp light set, and a few pieces with weapon perks to switch to depending on what I’m playing
One voidbent set for chest runs
I hadn’t heard they are working on it, that’s good news.
I hope they allow for up to 20 sets.
I was carrying around 3 sets and using specific banks to filter the rest, but I think I’ll bump that up to carrying 7 sets for now:
1 - favourite pvp set
2 - fishing set
3 - favourite dps set
4 → 7 - mutation ward sets
I feel like I spend way too much time rearranging my virtual sock drawers, bring on the changes.
Way, way too many. A general tanking set, a full ward set for each type (except beast, that sits in sheds for now), two alt-ward sets for tanking, a PvP set, a set for each tradeskill… it’s ridiculous. Particularly in a game with such poor inventory management systems.
managing it all has gotten so bad that i have dedicated different storages to different ward sets
Ancient -Chardis -corrupted Rage-medium ward with refresh-medium ward with weapon skills -light ward.
Angry Earth=Harbinger 2 x heavy-1x med- 1 x light ,3 other sets with ward or weapon perks
Corrupted - 2 x heavy -1x med -1 x light - working on 2 more sets ,one from Mangled one from barnacle
Lost -heavy-med-light ward + 2 mixed sets with weapon perks and ward
Beast 2 sets ready ,not upgraded
others
Tactician/raider/sagacious/queen/onion int set from gen/working on highwayman anmd five or six others
PvP-few non finished sets
You don’t want to know how many weapons or jewelery pieces i have in 625 ,so yes ,it is hell managing it all.
I wish they would do what Runescape did years ago and allow boxing of sets you are not using atm for easier management
I’ve put together sets 5 or 6 different things, i always carry my luck gear which is what i use for mining and logging which are my preferred gathering skills. they each have luck and mining luck or luck and logging luck.
I found it easier to do it this way than to have a different set for each type of gathering, and it covers me for chest runs as well.
I have my old semi retired heavy GA/WH set that is pretty mid by today’s standards.
I have a medium set for this loadout now.
i have a bank full of int gear, a bank full of healer gear, and a bank full of dex gear. each of these banks probably has 30+ items
patch to patch I play random builds in OPR and just buy the missing pieces that I’d like to have for the setups that make sense to my price range.
this patch i put together a rapier/firestaff build with accelerating flamethrower on the staff. and
I’ve come to the conclusion that rapier will never be nerfed to a reasonable level so I rolled a rapier with focus and refreshing on it and started playing a bit of healer. its been OP since i quit in february and it’s still OP today.
I basically just sort all my BoP items bank to bank after my dungeon runs when i complete my salvaging. i know people who have like nearly totally full banks and I dont want it to get that bad
Then can’t forget the refining sets. I have every refining set (other than smelters hat), that i use daily.
Then a couple different luck sets, based on what enemy type is in the area.
I don’t do muts, so I don’t worry about keeping ward sets.
Not even including the 3 storages I have with random hoarded pieces, that are mostly solid 2 perker purples. Really need to go through and salvage some…
