Amazon Games gives players an equal chance to compete with its MMO New World. In a game with no classes or races, there are only simple recommendations, skill trees and the chance to build around the weapon you feel comfortable using. Of course, there will always be a few builds that suit certain playstyles better than others. Our New World tank guide, prepared for the three best weapons for tanks and the tank build, will help players get the highest performance out of these builds.

New World: The Best 3 Tank Weapon Builds

By concept, all builds feature tank weapons. In addition, players need to already be distributing their attribute bonuses as a tank character and spending points in the Defender tree. Moreover, each of the three weapons in our guide consists of the most favorable combinations for maximum comfort.

1. Warhammer Guide

Warhammer tank build skill tree screenshot in New WorldWarhammers were known for their excellent crowd control abilities in the early stages of the game, and thankfully that hasn't changed. With stuns, knockbacks and area attacks, players can annoy their opponents while also gaining abilities that let them stay on their feet for long periods. We recommend that players using a Warhammer take Shockwave from the Crowd Crusher tree and the Armor Breaker ability from the Juggernaut tree.

2. Great Axe Guide

Great Axe tank build skill tree screenshot in New WorldPlayers using the Great Axe make the best use of it to start and finish fights as quickly as possible. However, with such an offense-oriented choice there isn't much room left for defense, so anyone who wants to take this weapon should focus on shield bonuses. Players should focus their points on the Reaper tree, with Marauder's Gravity Well, Charge and Execute for extra crowd control.
Charge lets players close in on a target instantly and potentially catch them off guard, while Execute deals a large amount of damage to finish the fight when the opponent's HP is low enough. The other abilities in this tree also stop opponents from escaping before Execute takes effect.

3. Hatchet Guide

Hatchet tank build skill tree screenshot in New WorldPlayers who want to use the Hatchet need to progress through the Berserker line. Throwing can be useful for grinding Exp and for PvE, but otherwise tanks may not find that tree very useful. Berserker offers some serious bonuses for sustainability, which tanks will benefit from enormously. For that reason, you need to max out its passives as soon as possible.
