Best Ice Gauntlet Builds in New World

The Ice Gauntlet is one of the most powerful weapons players can wield in New World, but even so, there are always ways to enhance a weapon or playstyle. Specifically, pairing the ice gauntlet with particular weapons that play well with it is a great way to start. Then it's all down to what attributes and skill lines are invested in.

Ice Gauntlet & Rapier Build

For a quick and focused DPS build, the rapier is a good friend to the ice gauntlet. Remember that with this build it is all dependent on whether the rapier or the ice gauntlet will be the main weapon. For a more rapier-focused build, dump more points into Dexterity. Alternatively, for a more ice gauntlet-based build, focus more on Intelligence.

Ice Gauntlet & Fire Staff Build

As one of the top builds in the game, fire and ice work very well together. Both the fire staff and ice gauntlet are AOE and DPS based making anyone who wields them great at dealing some heavy blows. Focus on the Intelligence and Dexterity attributes to beef up this build.
