Just sharing this nice comment I got after helping someone out with Firestaff questions for New World on Reddit. While lots of folks just use Reddit or other platforms to complain about games every once and a while one person helps another out and shares some knowledge. While I may not have a heart; I am always willing to share with others in the games I am playing!

To go with my last post about the Legacy of Crassus event in New World here is what I netted in my first three runs on day one of the event.
I was caught a little off guard getting Wrath of Decimus multiple times, but I'm not going to complain having two copies of an awesome great axe since I can upgrade and change the 3rd perk on each for different builds.
I was also surprised by the perk mods as I had overlooked them as rewards. While not the rarest perk mods these were still in demand perk mods which are nice to drop in storage for future use.
The Legacy of Crassus event is back in New World starting today so I wanted to break down how players should approach the event and rewards to shoot for.
First let's go over the daily limits:
To go with the limited bonus daily rewards each kill will also net random armor/weapon drops including a low chance at Brimstone Sands named items along with consumables such as health potions.
The dark matter alone makes completing the event 3x a day worth it so I'd at minimum go for that. The random item rewards should also net a few extra dark matter from salvaging.
As far as weapon/armor rewards of particular interest there isn't too much (at least from my view). The main reward I am going for is the Wrath of Damicus great axe. The axe comes with Thwarting Strikes and Enfeebling Maelstrom and a random third perk. Per NWDB it can be upgraded to 700 GS and the third perk can be changed. This makes it an ideal great axe!
To a lesser degree there may be some value in the Vesuvius fire staff for PvE. Lots of folks sleep on the Mortal Refreshment perk but combining this staff with Refreshing Pillar of Fire on your armor (since the staff has a weapon perk already) can result in a machine gun of pillars coming out in PvE clump fights. So niche use in PvE for anyone interested.
Lastly, as a housing items hoarder, the cyclops statues look sweet! Good luck in the event y'all!
