Amazon Games has announced that the Legacy of Crassus in-game event will be coming to New World on Tuesday, February 21st. MMO players can take part in this event from February 21st through March 7th. Players are charged with chasing down General Crassus’s captains as Roman tyranny threatens to overtake the world. Of course, no event is any fun without epic rewards. Players who are brave enough to take on these world bosses will net event-specific daily rewards.
The Corrupted Legion transforms the land into barren dirt, mud, and dust. Tall banners extend upwards, and small fires burn along the ground. Elite Legionnaire soldiers patrol the perimeter while a Signifer Nerva casts a spell in the middle. Moments later, a portal opens. Lucanus and Decimus, Crassus’ cyclops captains, raise their arms. As their massive weapons extend skyward, the shadow of Roman tyranny creeps ever closer to consuming Aeternum. This is the remains of a General seduced by corruption. This is the Legacy of Crassus.
Each day players can earn a special cache that contains any one of a number of Legendary pieces of gear for defeating these world bosses. Players are guaranteed to receive every reward after defeating these bad boys eight times.
Rewards include
- Wrath of Decimus Great Axe
- Hoplites Great Blade
- Cuirass of Decimus
- Fists of Decimus
- Sagittar of Lucanus
- Vesuvius Fire Staff
- Galea of Lucanus
- Hobnailed Boots of Lucanus
- 1-3 Obsidian Gypsum
- 500 Umbral Shards
- A special craft mod that can be used to add powerful effects to crafted items
Players will also earn standard rewards completely separate from the Daily Rewards. These can include a random weapon or armor piece, a special named item from Brimstone Sands or greater Aeternum, or consumables.
