Laz, Savage, and Starstone; Icebound, Barbaric, Desiccated

An intrepid healer lies prone in a dimly lit subterranean ruin, populated with skeletal enemies. Screenshot from the entrance of the Lazarus Instrumentality in New World.

Outcries of “No Tarn!!!” were heard echoing across Aeternum as the mutations rotated this afternoon. As players come down off their Outpost Rush high after the successful preview weekend, the cold reality of repeated expeditions fits the mood…

Starstone, Savage, and Forge; Overgrown, Indomitable, Fiendish

It’s all happening this week, with the new Siege of Sulfur event running and an exciting sneak peek into the new Outpost Rush map over the weekend, however it’s worth making time for mutations as well. This is the first time Empyrean Forge has been mutated since Season 7 was launched, so we’ll get our first look at the new Rapier artifact. It’s always nice to see a couple of jewelry artifacts up for grabs from the other two expeditions, and we have some mild synergy with Nature and Savage Divide…

Siege of Sulfur

Siege of Sulfur

Save the Sandwurm! Despite containing a terrifying creature that spews acid and can destroy us with a single bite, Brimstone Sandwurm Eggs are rare and precious. We have the opportunity to protect these eggs from vicious attacks by Sulfur Elementals. But don’t imagine you have to do this out of the goodness of your heart, there are rewards for successfully defending even one egg…

No event

Turkulon has left our shores for another year. Stay tuned for the next event, which will be Winter Convergence on December 10.

Season 7 Season Pass Guide

This is the first season to include Seasonal servers, which only last for the duration of the season and have their own special journey and rewards. To earn these rewards, you will need to make a new character on a Seasonal world, and complete objectives. Any skins, titles, or furniture items will be account-bound and available on your main character.

Barnacles, Tempest, and Dynasty: Eternal

With the release of Season 7, this is our first go at Unified Mutations. We’ve been pretty lucky to draw two synergistic expeditions for our Void mutation – Tempest and Dynasty. The curse is also a gentle one, I’d much prefer a Dip and Nae Nae over the wild chaos of Frenzied. M3 has been added to the Activities Group Finder, but it doesn’t seem as if there are any resistance requirements, so it will be interesting to see how that goes…

Factions, Races, and Wars

It’s possible to play New World and completely ignore the faction system, but if you do you’re missing out on bonuses and a whole new area of gameplay. This guide will help you choose a faction and explain what you can do once you’re in one…

Savage, Starstone, and Depths; Ice, Fire, Void

It’s a week of trinkets, with the Blooddrinker ring, Endless Thirst earring, and Lost Stopwatch amulet all up for grabs. A little synergy with Void Depths, but nothing like what we saw last week…

Tempest, Genesis, and Forge; Void, Nature, Fire

We have a trifecta of synergy this week, with a Nature mutation for Genesis, a Fire mutation for the Forge, and a Void mutation for Tempest. So less swapping around for boss fights this week, makes it nice and chill. We’re thinking Empyrean Forge might be a nice one to try an M3 on, as long as we can get through the Commander Marius fight!
