Adventurers, with Halloween approaching, many games have launched related themed events to add to the festive atmosphere, and New World Aeternum is no exception! This is exactly the core of this guide, Nightveil Hallow Event. The event starts on October 22nd and will last until November 5th.

In this Nightveil Hallow Event, there is a huge boss called Baalphazu, which revolves around a tournament, and many players need to unite to defeat him, so as to have a chance to get rich rewards. Here, let’s take a deep look at what rewards you can get from it and how to complete it.

Start The Event

First, you need to go to any major settlement around town. You will see a huge green Bubbling Cauldron somewhere in the center of the town. They are easy to find. But if you have never found them, don’t worry, there are some pumpkin icon markers on the map to help you locate them faster.

Next, you will see an NPC called Salvatore. Talk to him and accept the task he gives you. You can also talk to him more if you want to learn more about the event behind the scenes, but it is not necessary.

You are given the introductory quest for Nightveil Hallow Event, Baalphazu’s Fall, which is basically the bulk of what you will be doing every day during the event, hunting down and eliminating Baalphazu. But basically, the first time you defeat Baalphazu, there is nothing to do with this quest.

Then you just return to Salvatore and place Ichor you received from Baalphazu in Cauldron. Then talk to Salvatore again to unlock some event rewards.

After completing the quest, you basically just want to keep grinding this event boss until you get everything you want from the event. But remember that there is a limit to the daily rewards during the event, so you need to take that into account.

Baalphazu’s Location

Now let’s learn a little more about this Event Boss before we get into the other things you can do during the event, and the rewards you can get.

Baalphazu is a level 66 Elite World Boss, and he has some very deadly skills and a lot of health, so get ready for a fight! Luckily, since this event doesn’t last very long and almost everyone wants the rewards, there are usually a lot of people going to take him down.

You’ll see icons with his face all over the map, and that’s where he spawns. If you’re having a hard time finding his location on the map, you can use New World map to show all of his possible spawn locations. There aren’t too many, just 6: Brightwood, Ebonscale Reach, Eden Grove, Great Cleave, Morningdale, and Weaver’s Fen.

If Baalphazu boss is already in battle, there will be a glowing circle around the event icon, so keep an eye out for that. Note that the most effective way to win the daily kill is to join a group, because if you take on the boss alone, you may not be able to do enough damage until it’s killed.

How To Defeat Baalphazu?

Now that we know where Baalphazu spawns and how to get to him, let’s move on to his mechanics.

If enough people are fighting him, you can spam him and eventually he’ll go down, especially if you’re in a larger group.

But technically, if you want to help the most, you need to kill all Pumpkinites crawling around the area. Baalphazu will frequently summon mobs, and these Pumpkinites, when killed, will explode and cause Pumpkin Fall in a small area. Pumpkins will stay on the ground after they fall, and players can pick them up and throw them to Baalphazu to stun him.

As Baalphazu’s Stamina Bar slowly depletes, he will stop moving and deal more damage. At this point, it’s best for everyone to jump on him and start spamming him with the highest DPS until he stands up again. Then you just need to repeat this process again until he is defeated.

This is not a hard battle, especially if you have some pleasant companions to fight with you. So if you are low level, make sure to get into a group. It will make the boss farming process much easier.

There are two other mobs running around in this battle, and that are Gourdspewer and Calabashers. But these mobs are very important because they drop a small healing AoE when killed, and you can only survive the battle if you make full use of this.

Baalphazu Rewards

Now that you know how to find and defeat Baalphazu, let’s take a look at the rewards you can get from him.

Once Baalphazu dies, it will drop a Reward Box along with a few other rewards, including New World Coins, XP, Azoth, and possibly one or two new Halloween Costumes. Now, with Baalphazu’s Ichor you’ve acquired, run back to Salvatore’s Cauldron and interact with it to complete the quest and claim your rewards. Rewards include 2 Random Nightveil Hallow Weapon Patterns, 5 Nightveil Tokens, and access to Nightveil Sentinel section in Event Shop.

These are just the rewards you’ll get for your first kill of Baalphazu. However, you can farm Baalphazu five times a day for Armor Piece and three times a day for Costume. Each additional Ichor you get from killing him can also be turned in to Salvatore repeatedly for the following rewards:

• 7-13 Nightveil Tokens
• 1 Random Nightveil Hallow Weapon Pattern
• Coin Bag (3 Times Daily)
• 1 White Gypsum

Trick Or Treat

However, challenging Baalphazu isn’t the only thing you’ll be doing during Nightveil Hallow Event. There’s another really fun part to the event, which is Trick or Treat.

Since you can get some Costumes from defeating Baalphazu or from Cauldrons in most major towns, however, they only last for the duration of this event, so use them before the event ends or they’ll disappear.

These Costumes will transform you into some of your favorite characters you’ve met throughout your journey, such as Captain Thorpe, Adiana, Anubian Reaver, and Lost Monarch, and once you’re wearing Costume, you can search for hidden Treat Baskets in each town.

These have a 10% chance of containing Baalphazu Armor Pieces, 2 Nightveil Tokens (3 times per day), and a new item, Candy. This limited-time consumable comes in 4 flavors, and some candies may be very helpful to your event, while others may have unexpected consequences.

Candy

This candy comes in four variations, and they all give you very interesting limited-time effects.

• Angry Earth Candy Fish will turn your character into a fish for 10 seconds.
• Lost Black Licorice will increase your luck for 5 minutes.
• Corrupted Jelly Beans will give your character Red Glowing Eyes for a certain period of time.
• Ancient Grizzly Gummies will increase the number of Nightveil Tokens you receive for 5 minutes.

Note that this candy is also limited to this event, so use them up before it ends or they will disappear.

How To Use Your Nightveil Tokens?

But as you go around Candying and killing Baalphazu, you slowly start to accumulate a ton of Nightveil Tokens, and you might be wondering what to do with them. That’s where Event Shop comes in. It’s also everyone’s favorite part of the event, because you can trade in your Tokens for really cool rewards.

In fact, every year, classic items return, like Jack-o-Lantern’s Smile, Pride of the Witch, and Skeleton Twirl Emote. But they add new stuff every year, so every time this event comes around, not only can you go get the stuff you missed last year, but you can also get some nifty new stuff. You’ll see what all current and previous Nightveil Hall unique rewards look like on the screen.

So you can decide what you want to prioritize, or if you already have all the unique items. You can go for repeatable rewards, for example, Chromatic Seal is always a useful item, so you can get one of those every 3 days. This will save you a lot of New World Aeternum Coins in the long run.

Or, you can get some Elite and Legendary Weapon Patterns for your adventures. I will warn you though that this isn’t worth it as it’s not the max gear score, but it may be worth it to you as a stepping stone gear or to level up your crafting skills.

Final Thoughts

In conclusion, this guide covers everything related to New World Nightveil Hallow Event. Hopefully, this guide will help some of you better prepare for this event and complete the quests more efficiently. So keep fighting Baalphazu and saving Aeternum!

In MMO game New World, players need to go to various Adventures and Fights. In this process, the strength of Equipment used by the game Character controlled by the player undoubtedly Affects the success rate of Battle. This is also the case in the upcoming New World Aeternum.

Among the various different Equipment, Artifact is a relatively important category. They usually exist as Armor, Weapons and Shields or Jewelry. Players can improve their Combat power by owning and Upgrading them.

Artifact Equipment has a guaranteed Gear Score of 700 and a Unique Perk only available on a specific Item. Upgrading them is done in Gypsum Kiln, and the process usually requires players to use some New World Coins.

In fact, as an Equipment category, there are many specific Artifacts in the game. Therefore, it will be a more troublesome process for players to choose the one that suits them.

In New World Aeternum, since players need to explore various Areas, having a good Artifact can definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, we will introduce you to 6 Artifacts worth getting in New World Aeternum.

1. Paladin’s Morningstar

In the game, neither Flail nor Void Gauntlet, which are Weapons, can be used as the main Healing Weapon. At present, Life Staff is still the most suitable Weapon choice for Healers.

Although Healing Effect of other Weapons is reduced to avoid making Healer too powerful, to give full play to the effectiveness of Life Staff. But perhaps players can use Paladin’s Morningstar to make Flail and even Void Gauntlet can obtain some Healing Effects.

As a Flail Weapon, Paladin’s Morningstar can bring a lot of gains through Flail, so that Flail can also play a continuous Healing Effect in actual applications. In addition, its Heavy Attacks may also provide Burst Healing options when you need it.

2. Twisted Benediction

This is a Weapon belonging to Void Gauntlet. Its Soulfeast allows players to Heal nearby friendly players while Disintegrate Damage over time Effect deals Damage.

Each Stack of Disintegrate Heals 10% of Weapon Damage. Healing only extends from Focus. In addition, all other Void Gauntlet Healing is increased by 50%, and all Healing from other Weapons is reduced by 50%.

These features of Twisted Benediction turn Void Gauntlet’s signature feature, Disintegrate DOT, into a source of Healing. Combined with the increased Healing from the player’s Active Skills, there is the opportunity to form a dynamic offensive Healing method.

3. Swordsaint’s Katana

The main Skill of this Artifact Equipment is Kensei’s Technique. It allows players to Cooldowns of Reverse Stab and Whirling Blade refresh 100% faster and they deal 15% additional Damage when they don’t have a Shield Equipped.

Players have long wanted the option to play Swords without a Shield in the game. Technically, it is currently possible to do so directly, but there is no benefit because it will weaken your Defense for no reason.

However, an Artifact like Swordsaint’s Katana makes shieldless Swords a viable playstyle without having to overhaul Weapon.

4. Pugnacious

Pugnacious is a Blunderbuss Weapon that has an Obdurate that allows the player to hold down the right mouse button to activate Block, which successfully Blocks an Enemy Attack and reloads one round of Ammunition.

As a Weapon with a short range and low strength, Blunderbuss currently looks like a Weapon that wants to be part of a Melee Fighter’s load out. Its Ability to Block Enemy Attacks will provide a useful aid in Combat.

5. Hama Yumi

This is a Bow Weapon. Its Blessed Arrows Effect converts 99% of Damage it deals to Arcane Damage. If the player has a higher Focus, replace your basic Weapon scaling with Focus. This Weapon will deal 20% less Damage.

Shrine Maiden’s Fortune Effect means that when you Hit an Enemy with a Light Attack, a beneficial Soul will gather around you for 10 seconds, which can be Stacked up to 5 times.

When you Hit an Enemy with a Charged Heavy Attack, all Souls are released. They will seek out nearby injured Allies and Heal them, while dealing 80% Weapon Damage to Enemy. In addition, Healing Effect is only applied with Focus.

These Weapon Effects allow focused players to deal some considerable Damage while still helping Heal when they or their Allies are not at risk of immediate death. Because of this strong self-sustaining potential, it can be said that it is an excellent single-player Weapon.

6. Nergal’s Rotloop

This is a Ring whose Circle Of Decay Effect increases Damage caused by the player’s continuous Damage Skills by 75%, while reducing all other Damage caused by 50%.

This Effect makes Nergal’s Rotloop a great Artifact that players deserve to have. Obtaining and using it will definitely help you Defeat Enemies better and faster in Battle.

The above are 6 Artifact Equipments that are relatively worth getting in New World Aeternum. In fact, when you Explore the game on your own, you may find better Artifact Equipments, which will further enrich your gaming experience.
