Which Faction Should You Choose In New World?
There arevery few actual differencesbetween the three factions, and the decision is more likely to be based on the population of your server, whether you have any friends playing as well, or if you have a specific company you’d like to join.
There’s a 30-day restriction where you are unable to change factions again once making your decision, so choose wisely!
That being said, weabsolutely recommendthat you pick a faction. The rewards you get ataround the level 20 markcan be earned by completinga single faction quest with the daily boost.
These can be used to purchase a great armor set and weapons that will be better than anything you are able to loot at that time.
All faction armor pieces come withConstitutionas the main stat, which might not fit your build.
