If you want to tackle the endgame content in New World: Aeternum, you’ll need to figure out how to get endgame 725 Gear Score (GS) gear as fast as possible.
Thankfully, the game’s recent Season of Opportunity update gives us a perfect way to gear up quickly! The new Well of Fortune feature allows you to craft chests which give top-tier gear quickly and easily.
In this guide, we’ll tell you everything you need to know to use the Well of Fortune and get 725 GS gear ASAP!
How To Get 725 GS Gear FAST in New World: Aeternum
The best way to get 725 GS gear fast in New World: Aeternum currently is definitely to make use of the Well of Fortune in the Cutlass Keys region.
You can find the Well of Fortune at the Spyglass Ridge Hamlet, marked on the map above.
The main item of note from this Well of Fortune is the Goldcursed Epic Crate. This item only costs 35 Mystic Doubloons to craft and has a very high chance of giving you gear with a Gear Score of 725. At the bare minimum, it seems to guarantee 700 and higher every time.
You can get Mystic Doubloons by completing quests in the Cutlass Key region, with most quests giving 35 to 45 Mystic Doubloons upon completion. Alternatively, you can farm them by opening Cursed Hoards and other chests in The Cursed Mists. This is an endgame PvP-enabled area to the west of Cutlass Keys, so it’s pretty dangerous if you’re not at least Level 65!
Aside from the Goldcursed Epic Crate, you can also open the Apex Goldcursed Chests. These guarantee that you get a 725 GS item every single time, and there are chests for every type of gear. As such, they are perfect for when you’re looking for something specific!
The downside is that these Apex Goldcursed Chests are much more expensive. They cost 1500 Mystic Doubloons to craft and also require 1 Goldcursed Coconut. This is a rare item that you can only get once a week randomly by opening Cursed Hoards in The Cursed Mists, so it’s much more limited.
Nonetheless, now you know what the best ways are to get 725 GS gear as fast as possible in New World: Aeternum!
