  • What is your character name in New World: Laurethoron
  • What server/world did you experience your issue on: Yggdrasil
  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Going through Genesis and all the named items such as Settler’s Friend and Sacred Sabre are dropping at 590 even though my expertise is 625 in everything but Greatsword. Two trips and every named item from those runs was 590 without exception.
  • Is this a bug? (If this is an exploit, please follow the steps here: Bughttps://forums.newworld.com/t/dev-blog-how-to-report-exploits-updated/773869)
  • (if a bug) How did the issue affect your gameplay: Obviously getting gear score 590 means you will have to spend a lot more umbral to get to legendary. Also, you can’t get those named items to drop at legendary level either.
  • (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:
  • What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Run Genesis and check your named item drops
  • When did this happen? (Date and Relative time; please include your timezone) 10/21/22 PST Around 3am to 4am

This was in the patch notes for Brimstone Sands but most named items in the game drop at a flat 590 now. This was to allow lower level t5 named items to be able to be upgraded and viable

When you upgrade the item from 590-600 it will turn legendary and give you the 3rd perk on that item also.

Thanks, missed that in the notes. They WERE quite extensive.
