New World Aeternum Nightveil Hallow 2025 Event Guide | How To Defeat Baalphazu & Earn Exclusive Halloween Rewards?
Posted: Oct 16, 2025 Views: 79
New World Season 10 Nighthaven launched on October 13th. This expansion focuses on werewolves and vampires, likely due to Halloween being in October.
Although Halloween is the last day of October, the event will arrive before then. The popular Nightveil Hallow event will return from October 16th to 26th, and Baalphazu, the demon from another world, has once again arrived in Aeternum. Participate in the event to win various rewards!
Event Lore
Nightveil Hollow is a mysterious festival where ghosts and ghouls gather in the shadows. The boss, Baalphazu, Marquis of Terror, is a demon from Netherworld (a dark, twisted underworld ruled by nightmarish monsters). He was sent by his master to spread fear in Aeternum.
Three legendary witches, The Hexen Sisters, who settled in Aeternum, created the powerful Nightveil Cauldron, capable of dispelling the demon Baalphazu's Ichor. The player's goal is to collect enough demonic Ichor and place it in a cauldron, thereby weakening Baalphazu's influence over the world and saving Aeternum.
How To Start The Event?
You need to go to any Major Settlements and then find a bubbling green Cauldron in the town center, marked by a pumpkin icon on the map, the talk to Salvatore the Mad near the cauldron and accept his quest.
To complete the quest, you must defeat Baalphazu for the first time. After defeating him, return and place Ichor obtained from the boss into the cauldron. Then, speak with Salvatore again to receive a Nightveil Cache as the initial reward.
First Nightveil Cache Rewards:
- 5 Nightveil Tokens
- 2 random Nightveil Hallow weapon patterns
- Access Nightveil Sentinel section of the event shop
Finding And Defeating Baalphazu
How To Find Baalphazu?
Baalphazu is a level 66 Elite World Boss. He is represented on the map by an icon with his portrait. If the boss is being attacked, a glowing circle will appear around the event icon. Possible boss spawn areas include:
- Great Cleave
- Edengrove
- Mourningdale
- Ebonscale Reach
- Brightwood
- Weaver's Fen
Searching for bosses is slow, so the most efficient way to farm them is to join a group organized through Recruitment Chat. Simply type "X WB" or "X Baalphazu" to quickly receive an invitation. While Baalphazu isn't difficult to defeat, it's recommended to be at least level 61, otherwise you might not be able to deal the minimum damage required to earn rewards from the boss.
How To Defeat Baalphazu?
Baalphazu Core Mechanics
Baalphazu's damage isn't high, but it has 23 million health, so you'll need to use mechanics to quickly reduce its health. At the start of the fight, several Crawling Pumpkin Mobs will spawn, ranging from level 55 to 60. Killing them will drop Pumpkin Heads. Picking up a Pumpkin Head and throwing it at Baalphazu will deal significant damage and reduce its Stamina resistance bar. When the stamina bar is depleted, Baalphazu becomes paralyzed and takes more damage, making this the optimal time to deal damage.
Gourdspewers and Calabashers, when killed, create healing circles on the ground and remove debuffs from players.
- Calabashers: Regenerate 10% of maximum health per second.
- Gourdspewers: Regenerate 5% of maximum health per second.
Baalphazu Primary Abilities
- Demonic Waves: Green circular waves emanate from the edge of the arena and move inward, dealing significant damage upon impact. Players can block or dodge these waves.
- Vine Reach: Baalphazu rapidly extends vine arms toward the target of aggro. Players can dodge or block these waves.
- Vacuum: The entire area turns green, sucking players toward the boss. Escape quickly or use defensive skills.

Baalphazu Drops
Each Baalphazu defeat will drop a number of items, but some items have a daily drop limit:
- Armor (up to 5 per day)
- Costumes (up to 3 per day)
- Ichor (unlimited)
Nightveil Cache
By repeatedly farming Baalphazu, you'll gain his drops, which can be exchanged for Nightveil Caches from Salvatore. Each time you open one, you'll gain:
- 7-13 Nightveil Tokens
- Random Nightveil Hallow weapon pattern
- Coin Bag ( offer some New world gold)

- Captain Thorpe
- Adiana
- Anubian Reaver
- Lost Monarch

Nightveil Tokens And Reward Shop
You can redeem Nightveil Tokens for rewards in the shop. Past items like Jack-o'-lantern Mask, Pride of the Witch Hat, and Skeleton Twirl Emote are back, and this year we've also added a full set of skins and 3 masks.
Rewards that can be redeemed repeatedly:
- Chromatic Seal: Redeemable every 3 days, and saves some New World gold for you.
- Elite and Legendary Armor Patterns: Used to craft transitional gear or improve trade skills.
- Nightveil Themed Furniture: Used to decorate your home.
This summarizes New World Season 10 Nightveil Hallow event. While the rewards are good, it only lasts for about 10 days, so players who want new gear and furniture should play daily.
To claim the rewards in time, you need to be at least level 60. However, upgrading and crafting gear requires a significant amount of coins. Fortunately, IGGM.com has plenty of safe and cheap New World coins on sale, which can help you quickly boost your combat power.
