The faction system plays a critical role in progressing through New World, and the recent Aeternum update hasn’t altered this dynamic significantly.
If you haven’t reached Level 17 yet, there’s no need to rush into joining a faction. Focus on advancing through the main storyline and completing some side quests, and you’ll reach this important milestone before you know it.
Once you hit Level 17, prioritizing faction membership is crucial. Joining a faction unlocks new quests and provides access to powerful gear, along with opportunities for engaging in PvP battles against members of rival factions—a standout feature of the game.
How to Join a Faction in New World: Aeternum
To enlist in a faction within New World, travel to Everfall once you reach Level 17; you’ll find faction locations indicated on your map. Each faction has its own questline for you to complete before you can officially join.
Before choosing a faction, you can complete the questlines of all three factions to gain insight into their philosophies and approaches. This will help you make a more informed decision.
Overview of Factions in New World: Aeternum
New World currently features three distinct factions: the Syndicate, Covenant, and Marauders. While all are accessible to players, they are tailored to different gameplay styles and strategies.
The Syndicate focuses on magic and ranged attacks, the Marauders excel in frontline melee combat, and the Covenant is geared towards defensive and support roles, making it ideal for players who prefer a more protective approach.
Be sure to join a faction as soon as you reach Level 17 to unlock additional leveling pathways and ensure you don’t miss out on valuable rewards.
