New World Update Brings Expedition Mutators to Aeternum Along with Balance Changes, Bug Fixes and More

On the 25th of January Amazon Games launched a new update for their MMORPG New World, this update is bringing new content along with some balance changes, bug fixes and more.

The update has introduced a new endgame feature called Expedition Mutators, increasing the challenge of Expeditions and bringing even better rewards for players. Expedition Mutators modify the “Normal” and “Named” enemies found in New World during Expeditions, increasing the complexity and variation of enemy encounters. New unique gear and resources can be gathered, offering players more opportunities to increase their power level. Rare combinations of Expeditions and mutations will rotate each week, and players will battle their way to the top of a ladder of difficulty.

Along with Expedition Mutators, additional Sprite Shrines, decreased cost of Fast Travel and balance changes have been added to the game, some of the main updates include:

Umbral Shards: This update introduced Embral Shards, a mysterious, powerful resource that allows players to take an item with a Gear Score of 590 all the way up to a Gear Level of 625. This resource can be acquired by completing Mutated Expeditions, crafting a Gear Score 600 item when players’ expertise with that item is also at 600, or opening a Gypsum Cast when players' expertise for that item is also at 600.
Fast Travel Costs: This update has drastically reduced the distance factor in the amount of Azoth required for every trip, and adds six additional Sprite Shrines, meaning players can navigate the world even faster.
