Get the Greatsword as soon as the expansion starts.
New World: The Ultimate In-Depth Greatsword Guide
On October 18, the Brimstone Sands expansion of the New World goes live. New zones, weapons and expeditions are included in the expansion.
The experience in the new world will also be enhanced by some new mechanics. We will show how to get 590 Greatswords, one of the new weapons.
You'll need to improve your Greatsword expertise when the Brimstone Sands New World expansion opens. Your starting skill on the Greatsword is 500, and the Gypsum Orb or Infused Orb must be used to raise it.
