Weapons choice for our best Season 2 healer build, you're going to be going with this almost all the time is going to be the life staff it's the only healing weapon in the game, and then void gauntlet which is the healer's best secondary.

New World Season 2 Best DPS Build

Our best New World DPS build for season 2 when it comes to PvE is a spear and great axe. This can vary a little bit with the specific goal of Tempest's Heart, here we've opted to go for the great axe and spear. Because it's particularly good but it's not uncommon to see spear and greatsword be a thing as well. On the spear, the abilities of choice that we go for are skewer, perforate, and leg sweep. Then we've opted to pick up the exploited weakness ultimate. A lot of the passives on the right side of the tree are pretty good and a lot of the passives on the left side of the tree are not so great. They typically involve doing heavy attacks which you usually don't want to do. When it comes to the spear, just the old jab and stab is going to be the way to go.
