Stay Back is an upgrade to the Social Distancing skill for Hatchet users in New World. Stay Back belongs to the Throwing Tree, which is focused primarily on ranged damage and mobility. This Upgrade increases your Slow Movement Speed effects by 25% for 4 seconds. This is the final Upgrade available for Social Distancing.

Active Skills for the Hatchet increase in efficiency with Strength as their Primary Attribute and Dexterity as their Secondary Attribute. Investing into either Attribute will increase the damage of your Hatchet’s basic attacks and skills, though you will see a greater bonus for investing in Strength.
