In New World, the Fire Staff is a weapon that must be used masterfully in a build. Due to this, it may not be the friendliest starting weapon for new players. However, no matter the players starting skill level with this weapon, they should be able to enjoy it with one of these builds.
The Fire Staff & Ice Gauntlet Build
One of the best fire staff builds is to pair the fire staff with the ice gauntlet. As they are both mage weapons based on the Intelligence attribute, they go well together. The ice gauntlet offers AOE and CC to pair with the fire staff’s more pointed attacks.

The Fire Staff & Rapier Build
Another great option for those who love the fire staff is to pair it with the rapier. This will allow the player to fight both near and far from their opponents. With the rapier backing the fire staff, players will be able to rebuttal their attackers and gain mobility to get away from them.
