Activity Cards are the most reliable way of leveling up your season pass in New World and here are a few tips on how to get them done quickly.

Amazon Game Studios made what is probably the best way to level up a battle pass since the concept was introduced in any game. In New World, you will need to complete 16 stamps in a 4x4 grid in order to progress a card automatically or just four if you want to get a new card.

Completing all 16 stamps gives additional XP though and it is highly recommended that you do it, especially since you don't actually need to do all those activities.

In fact, you can get away with doing just about half of them.

This is thanks to the Wild Stamps. You can hold up to three of these at any time and completing a line in the 4x4 grid grants a Wild Stamp. Therefore, when you complete a line using the WIld Stamp, it will get automatically refunded. Better yet, if a single stamp completes two lines, you will actually have one Wild Stamp more than you started with.

New World - Wild Stamps are a shortcut to completion
Note how I was able to complete the entire card with just six activities completed, Wild Stamps did everything else. Even though the activities are not in the middle, Wild Stamps allowed me to connect those high priority squares, which then allowed full completion

As such, it is best to complete a diagonal line first since the squares in them connect with the most other lines, allowing you to use Wild Stamps more often. Alternatively, it is a good idea to complete the four squares in the middle as fast as possible. Doing it with any of these two ways, you will be able to complete an entire card after just six or seven activities.

Simply use Wild Stamps to connect the lines that have only one or two squares left and the refunds will be enough to carry you to full card completion. Ultimately, you will end up with three Wild Stamps after every card completion, allowing you to do it again.

Another thing to keep in mind are the low-effort activities. 

Some of the best activities to complete include:

  • Kill 10 
    • Ancients
    • Lost
    • Corrupted
    • Beasts
  • Complete one faction mission
  • Craft one Gypsum Orb
  • Complete two town project missions
  • Close one minor breach
  • Gather 500 resources
  • Collect tier five resources
  • Play two songs

Overall, prioritise low-effort activities and completing diagonal squares or those in the middle, which will allow you to finish the card with just the stamps and those season pass rewards will be yours in no time.
