Players that undertake A Prickly Request in New World will be instructed to collect a variety of different items. Among the items that fans must find are Briar Branches, and a total of eight of them required in order to complete the quest. For those players that may be having a bit of trouble tracking down these Briar Branches in New World, this guide is here to provide full details on where they can be found.
Where to Find Briar Branches in New World
To start, it is important to note that Briar Branches are harvested from Briar, a thorny bush that does have a tendency to blend in with the environs. Players will thus need to use a bit of care when hunting for Briar, or they may simply overlook them. That said, there are some specific locations on New World’s map where fans can focus their searches, which should make it harder to miss them.

With respect to where those locations are, Briar has a tendency to grow alongside rivers, much like Rivercress in New World. Indeed, players that are working on A Prickly Request should be able to get the eight Briar Branches that they need simply by exploring around those bodies of water. If a fan is not coming across any of the thorny plants with that approach, then it is recommended that they navigate to the fork in the river at Stoutmarch, as plenty of it grows there.
Once a New World player has obtained the requisite Briar Branches, they should confirm that they also have three Skinned Rabbits and six Plucked Turkeys in their possession. Unsurprisingly, the first of these items come from the Rabbits that are found around Everfall, and the second are harvested from Turkeys at the farm that is marked by a quest waypoint. With all of these items in hand, fans will be set to return to Barkeep Cormack in Windsward and collect their rewards.
For those players that are curious about the details of those rewards, they are 3,000 XP, 39.93 Coins, 250 Standing, and an Armor Case. While these may not be the most exciting of prizes, A Prickly Request is not a particularly difficult quest to complete. Indeed, collecting Briar Branches, Skinned Rabbits, and Plucked Turkeys should only be a minor diversion, and fans should be back to journeying across New World’s Aeternum island in no time.
