New World Best PvP and PvE Builds in 2022
Whether you are a PvP player or a PvE one, this guide will have an appropriate build for you. While you might not agree with every entry on our list, we suggest that you give it a try to see if it works for you or not. We would love to know what builds you are using as well. If you’re having trouble crafting unique weapons, make sure that you collect tons of Coagulated Blood.
Best PvP Builds
If we talk about some of the best PvP builds in the new world and if you are a fan of faction wars or 1 vs 1 PvP duels, these builds will allow you to get an edge over your enemies. The mentioned builds are good compared to almost every other build so you shouldn't have a hard time. If you have a good PvP character in another server, transfer it to your main account to become stronger in a 1 vs 1 duel.
Knight Build (Sword and Shield)
For information, let us tell you that most MMOs have the most common PvP build. Your main weapons will be the sword and shield. However, you will have an ax as your secondary weapon. When it comes to features, you have to put the highest point in constitution and strength. By doing this you can take a lot of losses and withdraw as much.
The best part is that having a sword and shield as your main weapon allows you to be more versatile. You won't be able to put points either offensive skill or defensive, depending on what you prefer. While this combo is not the most appealing, it is certainly effective and reliable. As for the hatchet, it's a great secondary weapon that's fast and does a fair bit of damage. You can't go wrong with a hatchet in your back pocket.
Void Healer (Life Staff and Void Gauntlet)
If we talk about PvP, then this combo is very effective. No one knew that combining the Life Staff with the Zero Gauntlet would yield such great results. Doing so will allow you to recover a bunch of your HP during combat. Plus, this build is viable in PvE scenarios as well. As far as features go, you'll want to keep them in focus and constitution. Since the life staff reduces the focus feature, it is necessary to maximize it first.
The great thing about this build is that it allows you to attack from afar and stay away from the enemy. You can take the lead in almost every fight because of your range and if you keep your distance, you will be infallible. For armor, we suggest wearing light armor so that you can maintain your mobility while dealing damage. Plus, this build comes in handy during faction battles when you have to heal your allies.
Duelist (Rapier and Bow)
Let me tell you that the Rapier and Bow combo is extremely deadly in PvP. And if you listen to us, be careful with all your points because there is no real point in putting them in other stats. Once again, you'll want to equip light armor to maintain your mobility.
But it is also true that this build is known as Glass Cannon Build. While you have a lot of damage and mobility, you are just as squishy. If you get hit by some tough attacks, you'll be defeated immediately. In addition to physical damage, this build also allows you to deal a lot of tick damage and debuffs. Your main damage sources will be poison and blood.
When we use the rapier, you can use your high mobility to cling to and attack your enemies. However, if you want to fight from afar, you can use your bow. With that said, keep in mind that this is strictly a PvP build as it has zero to none AoE damage. Dealing with mobs in PvE is much more difficult than this.
Best PvE Builds
The PvE builds we're going to mention now will include both offensive and defensive builds depending on your style of play. Plus, they all include AoE damage - which is arguably the most important part of any PvE build. It will take a lot of your time and resources to collect all these weapons and weapons. That's why you should know how to travel fast in new worlds and know which professions are the best to get tons of resources.
Great Axe and Hatchet Build
If we talk about the Great X build, it is mostly focused on DPS. Players will have to keep the majority of their points in strength and the rest in constitution. Since the Great Ax is a slow and heavy weapon, putting points in these attributes will maximize their damage.
The armor you want to go with is the Voidbent set as it will allow you to take less damage from the crit. On top of that, your character will be debated for a shorter duration which is always a good thing.
Your Great Ax has a high critical chance as well as fire and blood damage. This is especially effective against mobs in a raid or when you are clearing them in free roam.
Fire Staff and Rapier Build
We have to admit that this is an unusual combo but it works wonders. Using this build, you will inflict magical damage from afar. This is an extremely lethal combo against most PvE enemies. For this build, we suggest equipping the Syndicate Alchemist Occultist set.
If you also want to get the most out of this build, then for this, players will have to put most of their points mainly in Intelligence and Constitution. Use of Wildlife Torch and Last Hope will prove to be most beneficial. That way, you'll deal higher fire damage while the cooldown is lower.
Musket and Ice Gauntlet Build
This is a great option for fans of DPS builds. However, unlike strength, building the Musket and Ice Gauntlet primarily focuses on dexterity. Choosing infamy as your main weapon would be the ideal choice as it has a high critical chance. As for the gauntlet, the Master Cryomancer's Gauntlet is the best option, as it offers a lot of survivability.
The biggest thing to note here is that you have to keep some points in dexterity, intelligence and constitution. The Syndicate Plague Doctor Brigade set is your best armor as it provides great stats relevant to this build. Keep in mind that you have to keep a distance from the enemies and attack them from a distance.
We've got you all we knew about the best PvP and PvE builds in the new world of 2022. You can also try many other builds as per your choice. If you want to unlock more outfits, link your Amazon Prime account and get a Robinhood box.
