It's not uncommon for massive games to be packed with features and gameplay elements that players are oblivious to, and MMOs are especially full of these due to their nature. Such is the case for games like Destiny 2, World of Warcraft, The Elder Scrolls Online, and more, with New World recently joining the ranks. MMOs are often like that because there are so many interactions to take into consideration that it's hard to track what is considered essential information by the player and what they discover naturally.
In New World, some information is vital, and knowledge about specific mechanics can make all the difference. An example comes from the fact that some New World players don't know that actions like repairing and salvaging can be done quickly just by pressing CTRL + their respective key on the keyboard, which effectively makes the whole process easier, too. Because there are a lot of other cases like this one, a player took it upon themselves to share what they know about the game that others might not.
Redditor michael-hex1's post gained a lot of traction within the New World community, with many players chiming in to share facts they know in order to debunk misconceptions. One of the first facts is about fishing and crafting, where players can skip animations for catching fish or crafting a specific item with a simple click of the left mouse button. Another interesting fact is that players who need to search crates for an item as part of a quest can also pull water from wells, and they will reward a quest item too.
Some players may also not know that there's a daily bonus of 10 times the Gold and 3 times the experience for the first three Faction quests that New World players complete and turn in at the appropriate Faction representative. Then, it's also worth noting that Health Potions and Regeneration Potions do not share their cooldowns, which means they can be used together even if players do not need Mana.
All these tips are great, and michael-hex1 seems committed to keeping on updating the post with further suggestions from fellow players. The community can be quite helpful, another example coming from a New World player who shared a great Gold-efficient tip for leveling, which makes it easier to acquire better gear and not waste Gold on repairs.
New World is available now on PC.
