Weaving Trade Skill Guide for New World

Weaving is one of the five Refining Trade Skills in New World. Weaving involves processing all of the raw fibers gathered from the Harvesting skill and crafting them into cloth, to be used in crafting skills such as Engineering and Armoring. Weaving is performed at a Loom in any settlement. Looms have a tier level that varies from town to town and a higher tier level loom will enable you to craft higher tier materials such as Infused Silk and Phoenixweave.

Cloth Weave is the refining reagent for Weaving and it is required when trying to craft up your materials. The higher the rank of reagent you use, the higher the chance you have to craft bonus materials. The three available types of Cloth Weave are: Crossweave, Silkweave, and Wireweave. Generally, Wireweave is the best reagent to use, as it will provide you the highest chance at bonus items and is usually quite cheap.

Weaving is a fairly simple skill to level up: the most experience you can acquire is from the highest tier materials you can craft, so always craft up for maximum experience. However, you can take a cheaper route and continue to only craft the lower materials which are extremely useful and can still sell for plenty of gold, as many players would rather just buy those lower level resources than farm them themselves. Below is a table of refined resources you can create with Weaving and the materials/levels they require.

Refined Resources	Materials Required	Weaving Level	Experience Gained

Each of the 5 Refining trade skills have a gear set that increase the total yield you receive while refining by +2% per item. For Weaving, it is the Weaver's Gloves, Hat, Pants, Shirt, and Shoes. You can generally find these as drops or on the Trading Post, however some pieces can be much rarer than others.
