The Petal Cap is a mushroom in New World used for potions and the quest “Weakness of the Ego”. We at MeinMMO reveal where you can find it and how to harvest it.
Where can you find the Petal Cap? The Petal Cap is a mushroom that you can obtain from Petal Cap Fronds. However, this plant only grows in a specific area, namely around the city of Windsward.
Outside of this area, it does not exist, making it a relatively rare material. The Petal Cap is also currently being farmed by many players at the start, so the spawn points are often contested.
A larger gathering of the mushroom can be found at the transition to the area First Light in the south of Windsward, as the map NewWorld-Map shows:
In general, we recommend this map to find other resources like Iron or Oil.
What is the Petal Cap used for? This special mushroom has two important functions:
- On one hand, you need it for certain potions that you can craft in the profession Arcana
- On the other hand, it is part of the quest “Weakness of the Ego”
When can you harvest Petal Caps? For this mushroom, you need Harvesting level 30. You also need a sickle to harvest the mushroom.
New World finally celebrated its release yesterday, on September 28, but has been struggling with queue issues since then. The server capacities of Amazon were simply not enough to handle the influx of players.
We are covering the release and the coming days in our live ticker: New World is online – Live ticker for release, servers, and queues
