Introduction
Nightingale Realm Cards are utilized to modify the elements of your realm. They can also provide modifiers within a specific realm. There are 3 different types of cards that include Biome Cards, Major Cards, and Minor Cards.
This guide covers everything you need to know about Nightingale Realm Cards.
Nightingale Realm Cards
In Nightingale you will be able to open portals to many different realms. In order to do so it requires the use of both a major card and a biome card. The major card determines the difficulty of the realm you are going to open. The biome card determines which biome you will be creating.
Once you have obtained the card combination you are looking for you then need to locate a portal in order to play them. Once at the portal you can play the cards to open a portal to that specific realm.
The third type of card is a minor card. There are many different variations of minor cards. You will utilize a minor card at a realmic transmuter. Once you do you will obtain a modifier that’s active while you’re within the realm that you played the minor card.
Realm cards can be crafted, obtained from quest rewards, purchased from essence traders, or looted from chests. You can obtain the realm card recipes from a variety of methods. Once you have the recipe you can then craft the card.
Below you find all the Realm cards in Nightingale, and how to obtain them.
Please note: When crafting cards you will utilize the enchanter’s focus crafting table. As you progress you will need to obtain the higher tier crafting tables to craft the higher tier cards.
