In New World, the new void gauntlet weapon was just available for us to playtest and try out on a server and if you're looking for the best setup, then this is the guide for you. We will explain what attributes and perks you want to have, then what gems and specific gear you want to use to get out for your stats the best possible results and as much damage as possible.

New World Void Gauntlet Weapon Guide

The void gauntlet is a magic weapon, kind of like the eye scoreless except it stacks primarily with intelligence and focus secondarily, so it's the first weapon that stacks with intelligence and focus, and it's only the second weapon that stacks with focus with the live staff being the other. The weapon has two weapon mastery trees like all of the other weapons as well. An interesting thing to note with the void gauntlet is when you hold your right click it drains your health to regen your stamina, most of the abilities and passives don't really generate much mana for you and this is how you get it back by training in some of that health. So if you do like it, prepare some New World gold to get it now.

Void Gauntlet Annihilation Abilities

Now we'll start off looking at the weapon mastery DPS line annihilation:

1. Voidblade - It turns your gauntlet into like a melee weapon kind of like the halo blade, your left-clicks will then just be a milly left click and your right-click won't actually drain your health it will actually be a block, it lasts about 11 seconds or so, and it's a decent ability. 

2. Petrifying Scream - It is alike AOE in front of you, it will root any of the targets that it hits and will also grant you fortify

3. Oblivion - It is a circle AOE that is kind of around you, a little bit like that fire start ability to incinerate, it does damage over time effect avoid damage to the targets that it does hit.

4. Passives - The passives in the annihilation line are really based around cooldown reduction and critical hit chance, and there's nothing in this line that will give you mana regen, so if you do want to pick something that will give you mana regen, there's a couple of points that you can get early on in decay that you can pick up for Fervent Thirst will give you some mana back with your light attacks. 

Void Gauntlet Decay Abilities

The decay support line is primarily based around healing and dealing a little bit of damage, and it's a bit more damage focused than the lifestyle healing lines, but there are some interesting abilities here:

1. Painful Tether  - tether you to a target that you decide to hit it on it will weaken that target and grant you power, once you have upgraded this ability as well, it will also give you mana regen like 100% mana regen while the tether is active as well as heal you or anything around the target when it does die. So once you do kill the tether target, you'll get some health back as well.

2. Orb of Decay - It is basically Moira's Healing all from overwatch, what this does is you shoot this out in front of you, it will be a damage orb initially and hit targets in front of you, it can't be blocked and once it gets to its maximum distance,  it'll bounce back towards you as a healing orb and heal anything that gets in its path.

3.  Essence Rupture - It will heal anyone who hits the target that you have put the rupture onto, so you hit an enemy with this and when they attack that enemy, they will get health back.

4. Passives - The passives in the Decay line are based around decreasing mana cost as well as upgrading your healing, nothing too drastic to stand out.

Our initial impressions with the void gauntlet, it's an interesting weapon and there's going to be some cool builds you'll be able to build with it, maybe like a mere intelligence build with a rapier as the secondary weapon you could probably fit something in there.

Best way to play this build:

First of all, for the void gauntlet, we have the first Q ability called the void blade, and after activating you basically get a void dagger which you can use like any other melee weapon. By using normal auto attacks, not only you will do a lot of damage but as well reduce your enemies' damage observation and per each hit heal yourself for 5 damage. Then the second ability - Oblivion creates a circle around you and your teammates inside the circle will get a percent damage increase, but on the other hand, your enemies standing in the circle will get their damage reduced by 5% which can stack up to three times which means enemies in the circle will do fifteen percent less damage. Lastly, with the ability - Orb of Decay, you can fire this orb which goes through your enemies, and each enemy that it hits it will deal decent damage, and of course reduce their damage observation, then later that orb will come back and heal yourself and your teammates. 

For the second weapon, we have the Live Staff and your Q ability is Sacred Ground which you have to point and select the area you want to place it in, and then cast it for split second. The license brace ability basically works the same way just for a single target. The beacon which you can just aim and it places a huge circle on the ground, and if you target a player you can attach the spell to him specifically, so instead of the circle being on the ground, it will be attached to a player making the spell very useful in expeditions and group PVP.

So the way you want to use this build is first of all use your live staff and use all the three healing spells in no matter which order. You can use the sacred ground and beacon on grouped-up enemies, and to heal a specific target or yourself, you can use the light's embrace. To do this, you can select yourself by holding the control button and then activating the spell, then when your teammates call out to give them extra damage switch to the void gauntlet and use the oblivion spell and give them extra damage. Then if your teammates are calling to go on enemies point or you just get attacked, still holding the void gauntlet activate the void blade spell and turn your ranged weapon into a melee weapon, and keep on using attacks plus the orb of decay. With this, you can deal even more damage to the enemies plus heal yourself and your teammates if you hit multiple targets.

This void gauntlet and live stuff weapon combination is very strong, and will definitely become the new meta for healers and tanks. We're using the heavy armor, we can easily become a tank and make our weapon in a melee dagger and go full attacking mode if you get attacked, or you can easier stay in the enemy's front line and support your more tankier teammates.
