Boss and broker rewards
Buy Nightmare from the Wretched Broker
Nightmare is an exchange resource used for several Aspect upgrades, and the Broker offers a targeted way to obtain it.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Buy Nightmare from the Wretched Broker
Wretched Broker at the Crossroads; use the Bones exchange when Nightmare is available.
Before you go
- Unlock or summon the Wretched Broker.
- Bring Bones for the amount shown in the current exchange.
- Select an Aspect upgrade that requires Nightmare.
- Check the Broker’s current listing and any progression condition.
Farming steps
- Inspect the Aspect upgrade menu and identify a specific Nightmare requirement.
- Go to the Wretched Broker at the Crossroads.
- Open the exchange list and look for Nightmare.
- Confirm the displayed cost and availability before purchasing.
- If it is locked or absent, continue the indicated progression and revisit the exchange on a later night.
- Buy the needed amount when available, then return to the Aspect upgrade menu.
- Spend the Nightmare on the selected upgrade once its other requirements are met.
- Do not spend runs searching for a Nightmare room node; the Broker is the documented purchase route.
- Plan the Bones expense around the Aspect you actually intend to upgrade.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat the Broker check for each Nightmare-requiring Aspect upgrade. The shop refreshes by night and later offers can depend on progression. Buy and spend against a specific upgrade; there is no field-gathering loop for this material.
Common mistakes
- Searching dungeon rooms for Nightmare: check the Crossroads Broker.
- Assuming the exchange is available regardless of progression: use the current list and complete any shown condition.
- Buying without choosing an Aspect: confirm the exact upgrade need before using Bones.
When to stop or switch
Stop purchasing once the selected Aspect has its required Nightmare; switch to its other missing materials.
