Add to Watchlist

Please note that the New World Team has stopped covering the game as of Update 1.2. Information on certain pages may not be up-to-date.

This is a guide on Silkweeds in New World. Read on to see possible locations of Silkweeds, including the necessary trade skill and tools to harvest them!

Gathering Lv. Tracking Lv. Req. Tool
Harvesting Lv. 100 Harvesting Lv. 125 Sickle

Silkweed is a Harvesting resource node that requires the Sickle to harvest. With the tool equipped, walk up to the resource node and press the E key to gather and add it to your inventory.

Silkweed Locations

Silkweeds are the tall green plants that closely resemble the Hemp plants. Unlike the Hemp, these plants have a blue flowers at their tips.

You can find these plants in a few grasslands and forests in the starting regions. See the section below to learn all the Silkweed locations.

First Light Silkweed Locations

There are four locations in First Light that contain Silkweeds. If this region is your starting area, we recommend heading to the eastern side near the Fort as the area has low-level enemies.

Everfall Silkweed Locations

There is only one location in Everfall that contains Silkweeds. While the location is near the region's settlement, we recommened traveling to First Light or Monarch's Bluff to obtain Silkweeds.

Monarch's Bluff Silkweed Locations

There are a total of five locations in Monarch's Bluff where Silkweeds can be harvested. If you are traveling from outside this region, we recommend farming in the areas far from the settlement to avoid other players who are harvesting the same plant.

Weaver's Fen Silkweed Locations

You can find Silkweeds in three locations in Weaver's Fen. We recommend the area south of the settlement, as well as the area around the South Pestilence Shrine as they contain the most number of Silkweeds and do not have any enemies nearby.

Restless Shore Silkweed Locations

There are plenty of Silkweeds in the northern side near Fangsnap's Den in Restless Shore. It is recommended to unlock the Shrine of Sisphyos to easily fast travel from the area and to the settlement.

Ebonscale Reach Silkweed Locations

Stormcourt Shipment to the south of the main settlement will have a small patch of field that has Silkweed. While plenty, do note that level 57 Lost enemies will constantly patrol the area.

Another area with a lot of Silkweed is the valley to the north of the Serenity Monastery. It is difficult to access from the Pilgrim's Rest spirit shrine and is guarded by level 60 bears. Even at player level 60, this place is hard to farm solo.

Great Cleave Silkweed Locations

All the Silkweed nodes in Great Cleave can be found in the northern area of the central valley. Fast travel to the Tempest Valley Shrine then start from the bottom of the marked Silkweed locations and continue farming upwards.

Edengrove Silkweed Locations

While there are plenty of Silkweed plants in Edengrove, they will all be scattered across the map. Most will even spawn as either 1 or 2 nodes, only. This makes farming Silkweed in Edengrove a bit inefficient.

The easiest place to farm a decent amount of Silkweed would be the area to the west of Bramblecliff. It can be accessed by running up from Valor Hold Outpost or simply entering Edengrove from Great Cleave.

Mourningdale Silkweed Locations

Mourningdale will have an abundance of Silkweed nodes in the fields south of Mourningdale Town. Players looking to farm this area can also farm Hemp alongside Silkweed as both spawn within the same areas.

Silkweed Extracted Resources

The table below shows the available resources that you can obtain from Silkweed.
