"New World" is the latest open-world MMO title from Amazon Games that offers a wide range of ways to level. For players looking for tips and tricks to level up their characters fast and get through the early part of the story could use this guide to propel their way.

"New World" players can try the trick called the Story-Rush method. Using this trick, players focus on the main story quests of the game. They simply need to rush into each story quest to proceed to the next.

The Story-Rush trick is great for groups for it allows them to gain access to some of the better farming options in the early part of the game. The downside of this trick, however, is that it often leaves gaps later on, especially in the questing and leveling process.

To speed up this trick, players should not proceed directly on the second quest after completing the very first quest. Instead, they should head to the area where a member of the group started.

It will take between 5 and 15 minutes to get to that area depending on which zone each member of the group started in. But, the time spent will easily make up for the time if the entire group does the quest together.

Aside from that trick, players can also skip the game's tutorial by choosing Continues to New World in the game's menu or by simply pressing the ESC button. The game's Levels 1 through 10 are simple and players just need to follow the main quest and collect resources and skills they will use for later quests.

While players are in the Light Armor Class, they can cancel the recovery animation by Sheathing or Unsheathing their weapons. It is also important for players to gather 40 Stone, 16 Rawhide and 40 Green Wood when at these levels.

This way, players have enough materials they could use for later quests and they will prevent them from heading out from the first town. Players should also grab 4 Green Wood and 4 Flint to make their first set of tools. These materials will also assist players to make a Skinning time for the Early Quest.

As soon as "New World" players reach their first town, they should pick up every quest. Some of these quests are needed to progress and unlock things essential for speeding up later progression like Camps.

When choosing a Faction, it is worth noting that any Faction offers the same rewards from quests and other in-game activities. However, players going in with a Company must make sure they choose the Faction they plan to ally with or they will not be able to join them.

Apart from those, it is also important for "New World" players to watch their weight. It is very tempting to equip armors with the best stats for survivability. However, the gear that players wear adds to their in-game overall weight.

Players should take note that their weight affects their overall mobility, particularly in the way they move and dodge. For players looking for a tougher build, they could sacrifice mobility for higher defense.

However, for those who plan to have a more flexible and evasive playstyle, they should be conscious of their gear's weight. Aside from gear and armor, the inventory has some weight limit as well.

Carrying too much will slow down players. It is wise that players utilize the storage available at different settlements to keep their bags light.

Players who want to level up fast in "New World" should also unlock fast travel options. Finding Fast Travel Shrines allows players to get around the game's world faster.
