Consumables Guide

by Bran

Introduction

A great player in New World is not only skilled in battle, but is also efficiently prepared. Alongside a weapon, the player will find it beneficial to be stocked on consumables, prepared for any altercation. These consumables may be potions that restore health, mana, or both. As well as coatings for the player’s weapon to increase damage dealt versus certain monster types. There are potions that increase damage absorption versus elemental affixes or increase damage absorption versus certain monster types. There is also food that when consumed, grants a buff that increases specific stats for an amount of time or others that gives the player a buff that increases health or mana recovery rates. No matter the situation, there is a consumable that can help.

These are the consumables of New World.

Food Buffs

Attribute Food

Crafted at Kitchen or Camp

Attribute Foods are also very important in New World. These foods when consumed provide the player with a buff lasting 25 minutes. This buff will increase a specific stat or two, allowing the player to reach attribute thresholds the player wouldn’t be able to reach otherwise.

For example, the player may be 44 strength, and 46 dexterity unbuffed. When the player consumes a Garlic Steak he is now at 50 strength, and 50 dexterity, for 25 minutes, unlocking both 50 point attribute perks.

Recovery Food

Crafted at Kitchen or Camp

Recovery Food is an integral resource in New World that, upon consumption, provides a recovery buff lasting for 20 minutes. It is common for players to keep a good supply of these on them at all times. There are two types of Recovery Foods.

Health Recovery:

Restore 40/60/100/150/220 (based on food tier) health per second for 20 seconds. This recovery stops if damage is taken.

– Afterwards, recover 1% of your health every 2.5 seconds for 20 minutes

Mana Recovery Food:

Increase mana regen rate by 10/15/20/25/30% (based on food tier) for 20 minutes. 

An easy way to cipher the difference when looking through the list of foods, is to know that ‘Energizing’ foods are going to give the player a mana recovery buff, while the standard versions of the food give a health recovery buff.
