Wuthering Waves: How to Unlock Nightmare Crownless

Nightmare Crownless is a formidable new Nightmare Echo in Wuthering Waves, a boosted version of the Overlord-class Echo. Boasting increased Havoc and Basic Attack DMG, it's a powerful addition for specific character builds.

Like other Nightmare Echoes, Nightmare Crownless is obtained from its overworld spawn point. However, unlocking this potent spear-wielder requires completing the "Ruins Where Shadows Roam" quest and an additional step. Let's break down how to acquire it.

Ruins Where Shadows Roam Quest Guide

This quest isn't initiated through an NPC or in-world interaction. Instead, find it within the Exploration Progress menu for the Penitent's End region in Rinascita. Access this menu by opening your map and selecting the compass icon in the upper-left corner.

"Ruins Where Shadows Roam" is closely tied to "Quest of Faith," an optional quest involving defeating four enemies in specific Penitent's End locations. Begin by interacting with the prompt near the circular arena beside the Resonance Beacon across the broken bridge in Wailing Ascent. This triggers a battle against a Questless Knight, similar to those encountered in the "Silver Moon/Crimson Moon" quest.

Defeating these knights requires luring them near lit Macabre Torches within the arena. Reignite extinguished torches by strategically maneuvering Fae Ignis enemies to strike them. Avoid using high-damage skills near the torches to prevent accidental extinguishment.

How to Unlock Nightmare Crownless in Wuthering Waves

After completing "Ruins Where Shadows Roam" and "Quest of Faith," locate all four Dream Patrols in Penitent's End (see image above). While completing these patrols isn't mandatory for unlocking Nightmare Crownless, they offer valuable resources and Monnaie. Once all patrols are found, Nightmare Crownless will appear on your map within the ruins north of Penitent's End.

Remember, Nightmare Echoes utilize Enhanced Absorption charges, significantly boosting Echo drop rates. With a weekly limit of 15 charges, prioritize their use if you're focusing on multiple character builds.
