Time: 2025-02-14 by mmojugg Game: New World Aeternum Guide Tags: 700 GS Gear Crafting Guide

In the latest PTR for the New World expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth, players get a closer look at how to craft the coveted 700 Gear Score (GS) items using new prismatic resources. Here's a breakdown of what you need to know to prepare for this update.

Understanding Prismatic Resources

Prismatic resources are essential for crafting high-level gear. Here are some key materials and their crafting recipes:

Prismatic Ingot: Requires one asmodium ingot, ten mithril ingots, four charcoal and one flux. This can only be crafted once every 24 hours, emphasising the importance of strategic planning.

Prismatic Cloth: Similar to the Ingot, this requires twelve Spinweave fibres, one Infused Silk and one Cloth Weave. Spinweave is likely to be found in the new zones introduced by the expansion.

Prismatic Leather: Made from one Infused Leather and sixteen Darkhide, which will be obtained from the wildlife of the new zone or through plots.

Prismatic Planks: You'll need twelve runewood, one ironwood and one sandpaper to make these.

Runecrafter Voidstone: Requires twelve Lodestone Bricks, two Powerful Gemstone Dust and a Runestone, emphasising the need to conserve dust.

Prismatic Scarab: A fascinating crafting item requiring ten Golden Scarabs, three Prismatic Blocks and fifty Pure Solvents, created on a 250 skill level Stonemason's Table.

Prismatic Barb: Essential for the Premium Fish Bait recipe, which combines fish sauce and pheromones, both of which are currently in short supply.

Crafting gear at 700 GS

The highlight of these resources is their use in crafting guaranteed 700 GS gear. But it's not just about gathering materials, it's also about managing your faction tokens and gold:

Azoth Inductor: An essential component for crafting this gear, it can be purchased from faction vendors for 75,000 tokens and 25,000 gold, but has a cooldown of one every seven days. This means that it'll take around 10 weeks to equip your dream set, as you'll need ten pieces for a full set.

Preparation tips

To get the most out of this crafting system:

Skill up: Aim for a crafting skill level of at least 205 in relevant disciplines such as smelting, weaving and stonemasonry.

Resource Farming: Start collecting or trading for the materials listed, paying particular attention to the new resources such as mithril and spinweave.

Time Management: Plan your crafting schedule around the 24-hour crafting limit for Prismatic Ingots and the weekly purchase limit for the Azoth Inductor.
