Nightmares are [[Major]] and [[Ultra]] enemies that debuted in ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' and are primarily encountered in [[Lost Sector]]s and during endgame activities like [[Nightmare Hunts]] and [[Alters of Sorrow]] on the [[Moon]]. They drop phantasmal orbs upon death that grants players an ''Unstable Essence'' damage buff on all other Nightmare enemies for ten seconds. Nightmare bosses are often accompanied by two Major mob enemies that can respawn if destroyed, most often when boss health reaches halfway and if there are no current Nightmare enemies standing then. | Nightmares are [[Major]] and [[Ultra]] enemies that debuted in ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' and are primarily encountered in [[Lost Sector]]s and during endgame activities like [[Nightmare Hunts]] and [[Alters of Sorrow]] on the [[Moon]].

Nightmares have an chance of dropping [[Phantasmal Fragments]] and even rarer [[Phantasmal Core]]s as a resource to craft weapons and [[Dreambane Armor]] at the Lectern of Enchantment, which are unlocked from '''Nightmare Essence''' quests (which can drop from bosses during [[Nightmare Hunts]]). Even certain armor mods equipped to Dreambane armor are effective in both warding and boosting damage against Nightmare enemies. | Nightmares have an chance of dropping [[Phantasmal Fragments]] and even rarer [[Phantasmal Core]]s as a resource to craft weapons and [[Dreambane Armor]] at the Lectern of Enchantment, which are unlocked from '''Nightmare Essence''' quests (which can drop from bosses during [[Nightmare Hunts]]).
