Best locations to farm XP in New World

New World's level cap is 60, meaning you'll need to have amassed 1,165,770 XP to reach the max, which is no small feat. While completing the main story and side quests is the best way to earn XP, you also earn a decent amount through battles, which you'll need to farm to hit the level cap, as quests won't get you there.

Playing with PVP mode on and being in a Faction increases your player XP yield by 10%, so ensure you have it enabled to earn the most experience possible from fights and skirmishes.

Here are the best locations to farm player XP in New World:

Brightwood

For levels 25-35, Brightwood is a great place to farm experience. You'll want to head to Greyvale and defeat enemies here until you reach level 30, then go over to Brackwater and Lake Genevieve - Brightwood Isle in particular - for the level 30-35 grind.

Start at Perseus in the northwest of Restless Shore. It is a level 41 area, perfect for grinding out levels 38-42. From here, travel southeast to Minnow's Revenge and take out enemies here until you hit 45.

Hibbotsfield - Mourningdale

You'll find Hibbotsfield in the north of Mourningdale, left of Ramshead. It is a level 50 area, so you'll want to save this location for the 45-50 grind. There are several fields here filled with level 50 enemies that frequently respawn, making it one of the best locations to reach the final leveling stretch.

Edengrove

While there are a handful of locations you could grind to level 60, Edengrove is ideal because it has areas ranging from level 50 to 60. Start at Stained Bluffs and grind here until you reach level 52, then move south to Profane Seam, where you'll find a handful of level 54 and 55 spots. Once you're at 56, head east to Sapterlith and Grasping Summit in Wyrdwood Twists and defeat enemies until you reach the coveted level 60.
