What are the best archetypes in New World Aeternum? This re-branding of Amazon Games' MMORPG into more of a co-op action RPG comes with seven starting classes, or 'archetypes,' to choose from. From the straightforward Soldier to the unique Musketeer, it's a hard choice to begin with - luckily, we've put together a tier list of the best archetypes so you know which one is for you. That said, archetypes are little more than starting weapons and equipment, meaning there's nothing stopping you from investing in other weapons from other archetypes.
