Best Farming Locations for Gathering
Best Oil Farming Location – Cutlass Keys Town
By far the absolute best place to get a TON of oil, is to get to Cutlass Keys Town. You can walk or fast travel, you can even set your inn at the town. The amazing part about this spot is that you have essentially 3 farming areas to utilize. You can go west and stay in Cutlass Keys, you can move West just passed the border into First Light, or you can go directly North into Monarch’s Bluffs.
Weaver’s Fen – 2nd Best Seeping Stone (Oil) Location
By far, the best place to find Seeping Stone to extract Oil, is in Weaver’s Fen. There is an insane amount of this all over just south of Weaver’s Fen Town. If you make your way here, you can’t go wrong.
First Light – Seeping Stone (Oil) Locations
Our second choice for where to find Oil in New World, or first choice if you are still a low level and just starting out, is First Light. The northwestern area of the region has plenty of spawns for Seeping Stone, and there is also a fast travel shrine nearby.
Ebonscale Reach – Where To Find Oil
Ebonscale Reach Town is very close to several oil spawn points. They are a little more spread out than the previous two regions we have shared, but this is a viable option as well.
Other Regions – Seeping Stone (Oil) Locations
Seeping Stone also shows up in other regions for a source of oil. We’ve listed our four favorite. The next options you have are Monarch’s Bluffs and a few spawns in the Great Cleave. As always, find these on the Interactive New World Map that we used to help in this guide.
