| Sword and Shield Weapon Mastery | Sword and Shield are ideal for those who want to be a tank but still cause some damage. It features a wide range of abilities that can help with both fronts and can be deadly with spin attacks. |
| Hatchet Weapon Mastery | Hatchets are the perfect weapon for those who wish to deal fast damage as a berserker in the game. They are also best used for a DPS role in Raids and best paired with other high DPS weapons. |
| Spear Weapon Mastery | The spear is a good weapon for piercing multiple foes from a decent range. We recommend using it to cause damage to multiple mobs or players and crowd control and keep the pressure up on bosses. |
| Bow Weapon Mastery | The bow is your go-to for a deadly long-range DPS weapon. It can get massive critical if you level it up and choose the right abilities, and shoots a lot faster than other range weapons. |
| Hammer Weapon Mastery | The Hammer is the ultimate stagger weapon and can be a berserker's tool to destroy entire hordes of undead monsters or rival players. Use it to stagger and smash the opposition to pieces. |
| Rapier Weapon Mastery | The Rapier is deadly in both PVP and PVE due to certain skills promoting a bleed effect. Pick these skills, level them up, and combine them, and you have a recipe for blood-thirsty weapon mastery. |
| Great Axe Weapon Mastery | The great axe is a great weapon for those who want to crowd control but deal a lot of damage while doing it. It can also do excellent AOE, so we recommend it to DPS builds and players. |
| Musket Weapon Mastery | Musket is a decent range weapon this ideal for those who want to stand back and cause havoc from afar. However, it can be a little weak in close range, so pair with a decent close-range weapon. |
| Fire Staff Weapon Mastery | Fire staff is ideal for area denial and AOE range attacks that are good at disrupting enemy lines and causing fire damage. We recommend it for those who want a bit of AOE but range. |
| Ice Gauntlet Weapon Mastery | Ice gauntlet is ideal for those who want persistent range DPS capabilities but also want a bit of area denial. You can use this mastery to both keep foes in place and deal decent DPS to them. |
| Life Staff Weapon Mastery | Life Staff is the weapon of choice for all clerics and healers in New World, allows you to both heal and buff allies and keep them in the fight. Pair with Shield and sword for the ultimate Heavy and Medic combo. |
