↖ What is Transmog?

Transmog, short for transmogrification, is a feature that allows players to change the appearance of their armour and weapons without altering their stats or gameplay mechanics. In New World, you'll be able to transform the look of your gear to suit your personal style, creating a unique character aesthetic that sets you apart from the rest.

 

↖ Capture and Collect Appearances

As soon as the Transmog feature is introduced, all the items in your inventory and storage will be captured and stored as appearances. This means that any item you've collected, from early-game gear to hard-earned end-game sets, can be used as a skin for your preferred gear. Once an appearance is captured, it can be applied to compatible gear using Transmog Tokens.

 

↖ Transmog Tokens

Transmog Tokens are the key to unlocking the magic of Transmog. You can acquire these tokens in a variety of ways:

• Elite Chests: Open Elite Chests in the game for a chance to find Transmog Tokens.
• Seasonal Reward Track: Some Transmog Tokens will be available for free through the seasonal reward track, both in the free and paid sections.
• In-Game Store: If you're eager to expand your collection even faster, you can purchase Transmog Tokens from the in-game store.

 

↖ Transmog Process

Here's how you can transform your gear using Transmog Tokens:

• Travel to any major city and find an Outfitter Station.
• Locate the NPC called a "Style Manser" with the Transmogrification icon above their head.
• Speak with the NPC to access your collection of captured appearances.
• Apply a Transmog Token to the appearance you want to use as skin.
• Once the appearance is unlocked, you can apply it to compatible gear.

 

↖ Dyeing Skins

One of the most exciting additions is the ability to dye your skin. You can change the colour of any skin except weapons to create a truly unique and personalized look. Now, you can rock that intimidating helmet in your favourite shade or match your armour to your guild's emblem.

↖ Hints of a Level Increase

 

Rested XP Bars and Level 60 Indicator	In a recent video, a character's UI displayed not only a level 60 indicator but also rested XP bars. While this character may have been boosted to level 60, the presence of rested XP bars hints at potential level progression beyond level 60.
Implications of a Level Increase	While the video doesn't guarantee a specific level increase, the hints suggest that the New World expansion might introduce a level increase. This could lead to expanded content, higher-tier weapons, and more intricate professional systems.
Speculations and Expectations	A level increase could bring about a progression in various aspects of the game, such as equipment tiers, character abilities, and crafting professions. However, precise details remain unknown.
