This New World trade levelling guide focuses on Arcana, the profession that allows players craft potions, tinctures, and magic weapons.
While there are several ways to increase proficiency, it will help those who want to level up their Arcana skill without committing too many resources to unnecessary recipes.
NOTE: New World recipes such as those below simply ask for materials of a certain tier, e.g. "Tier 2 Metal, Water Arcana" etc.
We've listed the more common material as it's usually cheaper/easier to obtain. However, prepare for a very, very significant grind.
For example, where we've put 'Coarse Leather', you could use Rugged Leather, Ragehide, or even epic materials such as Scarhide. The same goes for the Arcanas - you could use Water Motes, Water Wisps, Water Essence or Water Quintessence.
The type you use will affect the gear score of the piece.
