New Worldis the kind of MMORPG that allows players to determine their class and role through their character build as opposed to choosing one as part of the initial onboarding process. That means that there are no classes inNew World, so any character can be a magic user and wield a Fire Staff.

The magic-user that specializes in the deadly art of fire manipulation as a damage-per-second (DPS) class is a common sight in other video games.New Worldhas several unique features for the ideal Fire Staff build for those players that want to watch the world burn.
Attribute Points
The fire staff is one of the few weapons that scale with one Attribute and one of a mere two that scale only withIntelligence. The only other Attribute to consider with an early fire staff build isConstitution, which determines a character’s hit points.

Players that want to specialize in the fire staff can start their ideal build by putting as many Attribute points inIntelligenceas possible, which also makes this an ideal weapon for leveling. It’s easier to diversify weapon proficiencies at later levels when a player has more Attribute points to use.
Acquiring A Fire Staff
It’seasy to acquire a fire stafffor a character, even at the beginning levels.
Fire Staff Mastery Trees
The titles for each branch of theFire Staff Mastery Treeare self-explanatory to some, but for those unfamiliar with the ways of fantasy RPG games, one is more focused on controlled attacks and crowd control while the other is more about area-of-effect damage, which is another way of raining fire on everything on the battlefield. The best build uses points from both sides of the tree,but the final decision belongs to the player.

Sockets And Gems
Many of the higher-quality and advanced-level weapons inNew Worldhave gem sockets to improve the item’s damage-dealing abilities or give them an extra quality that benefits that player. Look for these gems when working towards the perfect fire staff build.
Other Weapon Combinations
Characters can equip two weapons at once inNew World, and it’s not possible to equip two fire staffs at once. The final touch to the ideal fire staff build would include weapons that also scale primarily withIntelligence.
