¡Saludos, aventureros!
New World Update 5.0.4 downtime will begin at 11:00PM PT (6:00AM UTC) on July 23 and last approximately 1.5 hours. Empower your weapons, confront Dryads, and save Aeternum from the Fury of the Spriggan. Check out the full release notes, including various combat bug fixes, below.
Fury of the Spriggan
The Earth has been restless since the Ennead awoke. Empower your weapons, confront Dryads, and save Aeternum from the Fury of the Spriggan. Courageous players can join 20+ Adventurers in open world encounters from July 24 to August 6 for daily, event-specific rewards.
Dryad Shamans have been spotted throughout Brightwood, Ebonscale Reach, Edengrove, Mourningdale, and Brimstone Sands. Construct Flame Braziers to strengthen your weapons before these deadly foes overrun Aeternum.

A roll for various container resources.
A roll of level-appropriate consumables (health, mana, etc.).

Daily Bonus Rewards
Players can topple the Spriggan multiple times throughout the same day, but will only receive a maximum of 3 daily bonus rewards. These reset at 5 AM local time. For example, if a player grabs their third Cache at 4:58 AM, they’ll be able to earn another at 5:01 AM.

Combate
Life Staff healing abilities will now cancel properly without costing Mana or incurring ability cooldown when casting a healing spell and the locked-to target dips out of healing range.
Fixed an issue with the Bow that caused slightly faster attack speed when cancelling the Rain Of Arrows, Penetrating Shot, or Poison Shot abilities.
Fixed an issue that caused attack canceling a dodge and then dodging again to not decrease stamina.
Mounts can no longer jump Luna outposts’ walls to bypass the outpost gates.
Seasonal Items
Updated 2024 Summer armor patterns to have correct level requirements.
