The playable area inNew World: Aeternumis vast, and if you find yourself in need of some essential supplies while you’re out in the wilderness, then setting up a camp is the way to go. The process itself is quick and easy, and if you find yourself dying a lot, having a camp nearby can save you a lot of time and frustration.
The ability to make a camp is unlocked very early on, and you can do it regardless of whatstarting class you pick inNew World: Aeternum.If you’ve just come back to the game, or if you’re a completely new player who got lost while doing the main quests, here’s a quick refresher on the basics of using your camp.
How to Make a Camp in New World: Aeternum
You can place a camp in New World: Aeternum bypressing the Y button on your keyboard. For anyone using the controller, you instead do this byholding the UP button on your D-padto open a radial wheel, thenselecting the campfire iconat the top. If you can’t place a camp, make sure to do the main story quests first.
Camps can be placed on flat or slightly angled terrain, provided that the area is not inside the boundaries of a stronghold or landmark. Once you’ve placed it, you’ll need5 Green Wood and 1 Flint. Interact with the camp that you’ve placed to start building, and once all the materials have been placed,take a few steps back. A fully-built camp will pop up, offering you temporary respite, though it’s not as cozy or fancy as owning awhole house inNew World: Aeternum.
You can only place one camp at a time. Any attempt at placing another one will destroy the old one.
Camp Crafting
You can craft a variety of basic items in your camp by interacting with it. Doing so will open up a menu showing all the things you can make, from simple tools to consumables. If you knowhow to fish inNew World: Aeternum,you can cook the fish you catch in your camp, provided you know the right recipes.
Upgrading Your Camp
Players can upgrade their camps byreaching certain level milestones. The more you play, the fancier your camp will become. Camps are upgraded once players hitlevels 10, 15, 30, 40, and 55, though you may need to complete some quests in order to see actual changes. Make sure to check your quest log if you’ve noticed that your camp isn’t getting upgraded to the next tier.
