Introduction
Within every realm you encounter in Nightingale you will be able to apply minor cards in order to receive special buffs. These buffs only apply to the realm you in. You can do this by finding and utilizing the Realmic Transmuter within that realm.
This guide will explain everything you need to know about the Realmic Transmuter in Nightingale.
How to Find the Realmic Transmuter in Nightingale
The Realmic Transmuter is a machine that’s located in random locations within a realm. In the the forest Abeyance realm pictured below it was located in the southeast corner of map. However, because each realm is procedurally generated the machine can be located in a different location, even within another Abeyance Forest realm.
You can located the machine in your Abeyance realm by opening your map and looking for the card symbol. However, in some realms it’s located on the top of the Fae Tower. Once you complete the Fae tower you can then access the Transmuter.
If you do not locate the Transmuter at the top of the tower you will be able to locate it once the tower is complete by looking for the card icon on the map. Completing the Fae Tower reveals all the other points of interest on that map.
How to Use the Transmuter
Once you locate the transmuter you simply need to interact with it to use it. Opening a portal to another realm requires the use of Biome / Major Cards. However, the transmuter only uses minor cards.
Once you interact with the machine you can then place a minor card in it to active the benefits of the card. You of course must have acquired the minor card you want to use in order to utilize it at the transmuter. You can purchase quite a few of the minor card recipes from the essence traders located within each realm. Once you have the recipe you will then need to craft the card.
Once you use the card you will then be granted to modifiers of that card within the realm that you are in. Those modifiers do not carry over to any other realm. You must use another minor card at a transmuter in a different realm to receive the benefits there.
However, whatever modifiers you receive will be active anytime you are in that specific realm. If you reset the realm and go the same biome / difficulty the card you played will no longer be active. You can only play one minor card at a time. You can however replace a card with a different card if you want to change your modifiers for that realm.
