The Gaping Jaw is a major expedition in Elden Ring Nightreign, a standalone adventure set in the Elden Ring universe. This expedition is famous for its Nightlord boss, Adel Baron of Night, a huge black dragon-like creature with a massive mouth and sharp teeth.
Adel can use lightning and can swallow anything that gets too close. In this Elden Ring Nightreign Gaping Jaw Boss guide, I will cover everything you need to know to beat the Gaping Jaw Boss.
The boss, Adel Baron of Night, is a giant black monster with a big snout and grinding teeth. He gets stronger as the fight goes on.
When his health drops below half, he starts using lightning attacks and big area-of-effect moves.
His main weaknesses are poison, frostbite, and sleep. Poison is especially good because it slows him down and makes him easier to handle.
How the Expedition Works
Before you face the Adel Baron of Night, you fight a random group of Night Bosses, like Duke’s Dear Freja and the Ancient Dragon.
Night 1:
You could fight one of these bosses:
- Duke’s Dear Freja
- Gaping Dragon
- Wormface
- Valiant Gargoyle
Night 2:
On the second night, you might face one of these:
- Ancient Dragon
- Outland Commander
- Golden Hippopotamus and Crucible Knight (sometimes you fight both at the same time)
Each night, you will fight one or more of these bosses before you reach the final fight with the Elden Ring Nightreign Gaping Jaw Boss.
The expedition happens over several day and night cycles. You need to upgrade your flasks and collect items to survive. The recommended level for this fight is at least 12, but higher levels help a lot because the boss is very aggressive.

How to Beat Adel Baron of Night
Choose the Revenant, a support class, to help the team by reviving fallen friends from far away. The Revenant has low defense, so it needs to stay back and avoid direct hits. Teamwork is key, as reviving allies and sharing healing keeps everyone in the fight.
Stay on the move and do not stand in front of the Adel Baron of Night Boss for too long. The boss likes to bite and jump at you, so keep moving to stay safe.
When the boss loses half its health, watch out for lightning and big explosions. Dodge away when you see glowing spots on the ground. Use poison weapons to keep the boss weak, and use healing items when you get hurt. Help your friends get back up and share your healing items with them.

After you beat the Gaping Jaw Boss, you get these special rewards:
- Night of the Baron Relic
- Trace of Night
- Gaping Jaw Trophy
