How to Get the Hunt Realm Card

Learn how to get the Hunt Realm Card in Nightingale! Discover the requirements, find the dungeon, and prepare for the Apex Hunts. Your guide to end-game content.

Alright, so you're looking to snag the Hunt Realm Card in Nightingale? Awesome! This is a big step towards tackling some of the really cool end-game content, like those massive Apex Hunts. Think of it as your ticket to fighting some seriously beefy world bosses. Let's break down how to get it.

First off, you need to locate the dungeon where the card recipe is hidden. Keep an eye out in your Abeyance realm for giant creature bones sticking out of the ground – it looks like a massive dragon skull. You'll spot it more easily in Desert and Swamp biomes, but it's visible in Forests too. Once you find this 'Hunt Site of Power,' you're almost there, but not quite.

Before you can even think about stepping inside, you've got a few requirements to meet:

• Gear Score: You'll need at least 50 Gear Score.
• Hope: Aim for 150 Hope.
• Estate Score: And 75 Estate Score.

Don't worry if those sound a bit vague right now, let's quickly cover what they mean:

• Gear Score is basically the average of your weapons and armor. To bump this up, you'll want to craft refined gear using better resources and upgrade your crafting stations and tools.
• Estate Score is all about how valuable your home base is. Build up your Estate Cairn, add furnishings, crafting stations, and other decorations. The more stuff you build near your Cairn, the higher this score goes. Keep an eye on your quest log to see how you're doing.
• Hope Score is a mix of your Gear Score, Estate Score, and how many quests you've finished. If your Hope is a bit low, try talking to any NPCs you've met and completing their quests. Sometimes, you might have missed an NPC like Frankenstein in a Desert Astrolabe realm, and their quests can really boost your Hope.

Once you've met those requirements and stepped into the dungeon, it's pretty straightforward. Head downwards, just like in other realm card dungeons. You'll be fighting off some spinning and spawning enemies, so keep your eyes peeled for Hope Echoes to grab Codex entries and loot Fae Chests. When you finally reach the bottom, get ready for a boss fight. Defeat the boss, and you'll claim the Realm Card recipe. Craft it at the Refined Enchanter’s Focus, and you'll be able to create portals to Apex Worlds!

These Apex Worlds are where the real end-game action is, featuring massive world bosses like Humbaba. You'll need good gear, allies, and plenty of supplies to take them on. The Hunt Realm Cards also unlock new recipes for advanced building and minor cards that boost your favorite weapon types, making those tough fights a bit more manageable. Good luck out there!
