It’s patch week for New World, as the most-definitely-still-an-MMORPG released Update 1.3 early this morning with a number of combat skill improvements, better UI stability, perk balance changes, and a slew of fixes to various persisting issues. The patch also activated the Legacy of Crassus event, which is running from now through May 31st.
