The Nightveil Hallow event in New World is just around the corner, bringing with it exciting gear and other surprises that weren't fully covered in the official announcement. In this detailed guide, we'll explore the event's offerings, focusing on the intriguing 675 gear items, NightVeil Shields, and the potential for flying in the game. Plus, we'll discuss how to craft near-BiS (Best in Slot) weapons inexpensively. Let's dive in!
Crafting Near-BiS Weapons Cheaply
The Nightveil Hallow event introduces 675 gear items that come with primary attributes, Flame Attunement, and Refreshing Move. These are perfect for players who haven't reached 700 gear score yet or those looking for alternate weapon options.
- Crafting Requirements:You can craft these items using older cooldown materials and patterns available from the event shop. This offers a cost-effective way to upgrade your gear.
- Bind on Pickup: Keep in mind that these crafted items are bind on pickup, so make sure you craft them on the character you intend to use them on.
- Gear Score Considerations: While these 675 gear items are a bit lower in gear score, the difference in damage output compared to 700 gear score items is not massive. So, for most situations, these are still quite effective.
- Exception for M3s: In Mutated Level 3 dungeons (M3s), it's crucial to have gear as close to 700 gear score as possible. So, if you aim to tackle M3s, consider using 700 gear score items.
- Night Veil Shields: These are noteworthy, especially the Tower Shield. They come with unique perks like Flame Conditioning and Refreshing Move. This allows for flexibility in tanking builds and might be particularly interesting for some playstyles.
- Green Patterns: Some patterns indicate a gear score range of 600-675 but can potentially be upgraded to 700 gear score using Prismatic materials. This might be a bug, so be prepared for possible changes in the future. These offer an intriguing option for rolling specific perks on your weapons.
The Possibility of Flying
New information hints at the possibility of flying in New World during the Nightveil Hallow event. While it's unlikely to allow full freedom of flight, it suggests that players may gain a hover or mount-like ability. One of the found character augmentations, Witch's Broom with Fly My Pretty, strongly indicates this feature, potentially tied to the event.
Nightveil Hallow Event Overview
The Nightveil Hallow event begins on October 18th and lasts until November 14th. Here's a brief overview:
