I’ve always been fascinated by gold. It’s not just the shiny metallic color that draws thieves and hunters alike, but the sheen has a mesmerizing effect on most humanoids. I’ve seen it used as a talisman, a decoration, as a symbol of power, and as a sign of wealth. You can find gold in all corners of New World, from the depths of the New Las Vegas, to the jungles of the New Africa, to the mountains of the New China, to the canyons of the New Utah, and even the oceans of the New Caribbean.
If you’ve ever wanted to find gold in New World, you’ll have to start by learning how to survive in a dangerous world full of monsters, both human and animal, as you explore the dark and dangerous wilderness.
You’re the explorer, the hero, and the archaeologist of your own game universe. You are the one who will uncover the secrets of history, plant the seeds of legend, and build the foundation of myth! Your discoveries will shape the future of the game—and in fact the entire world!
In the New World, jewelcrafting is a necessary skill for creating high-quality rings and amulets. Unfortunately, it requires a large amount of metal ore, namely Silver and Gold Ore, which is used to create settings and bands for those gleaming jewels. While iron and silver are plentiful in the New World, gold is a different matter. You can get enough Gold Ore for a time if you know where to search. This is where you may discover gold in the New World.
You can also look at our Silver and Iron location guides. Both sections provide examples of places near beginning regions that you may use if you’re having difficulty locating nodes.
Where to Look for Gold in the New World
In the New World, gold ore is mined from gold veins, which can be found in the following locations:
- Elder’s Bluff at First Light
- Devil’s Quarry, Divine Rise, Monarch’s Bluff
- Perilbrook, Eldergate, Perilbrook, Perilbrook, Perilbrook, Perilbrook, Perilbrook,
- Faith’s Bounty: Everfall
- Bronzegrove: Brightwood
Gold veins may be found all throughout Aeternum, mainly in hilly regions or inside caves. Because they don’t have the same gleam as Silver or Iron Veins, they’re a little harder to see while you’re within a cave. In each of the four beginning regions, we’ve highlighted some key places. We also added Brightwood since, by the time you arrive, you may require Gold to create jewelry at the outfitting station.
Locations of the First Light Gold
Elder’s Bluff at First Light, which may be a good place to start for some readers, is ideal for Gold Veins. Unfortunately, you are unlikely to have the mining abilities to get the ore if you stumble across it. Regardless, there are a few Gold Veins in this area.
Gold Locations at Monarch’s Bluff
The Devil’s Quarry and Divine Rise in Monarch’s Bluffs have more Gold Veins. Check within the rock quarry, but keep in mind that the nodes may be difficult to locate. A Gold Vein may also be found in the cave at Devil’s Rise, which you can touch a few times.
Locations with Windsward Gold
If you’re ever in Windsward, make your way down to Perilbrook and Eldergate. Gold Veins may sometimes be found in the bear cave in Eldergate. Unfortunately, there is a Faction quest down there, so it may become a little busy. You may be better off near the Perilbrook shipwreck.
Locations of Everfall Gold
With the Gold Veins, Everfall is rare, but if you do find yourself here, check out Faith’s Bounty. Pay special attention to the rocky areas that surround the location. If you need to go there for a quest, make a point of stopping at the two highlighted places on the map below.
Locations of Brightwood Gold
Finally, Brightwood is a good place to go if you’re looking for Gold Veins. Two can be found within the Bronzegrove cave, but due to the darkness, they are difficult to spot. A handful may be found north of there, near the river’s rocks. If you have a Tier 3 Smelter and Outfitting Station in Brightgrove, it’s a good location to keep your gold. Around this time, you’ll most likely be leveling up your Jewelcrafting.
What is the purpose of gold in the New World?
A Tier 3 Smelter can process gold ore into gold ingots. Gold ingots are a Precious Metal Tier 3 item. Gold Ingots may be used in Tier 3 Outfitting Station recipes such as Rings and Amulets.
