Learn how to find the Herbarium Realm Card in Nightingale. This guide covers locating the Site of Power, defeating the Fabled Automaton Knights, and crafting the T2 Realm Card.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find the Herbarium Site of Power landmark in your Abeyance realm. Look for a large clump of floating white stone structures, often with a ramp or climbable blocks leading to the entrance.
  2. 2
    Ensure you have at least 40 Gear Score. Upgrade your gear, favorite tool, or craft a gun. Consider re-crafting simple tools with higher-tier resources if you have access to three Major cards.
  3. 3
    Prepare for a vertical ascent within the Herbarium Site of Power. Bring healing items (salves, potions) to treat potential broken legs from falls.
  4. 4
    Stockpile Essence Dust for tool and armor repairs needed at the dungeon's summit.
  5. 5
    Once inside the Herbarium Dungeon, find the stairs or climbable blocks to ascend. Be aware of enemy spawns and potential lore cards or Fae Chests off the beaten path.
  6. 6
    As you climb, enemies will spawn every other level, including melee units and flask-throwing enemies. They may have increased health and damage.
  7. 7
    At the top, prepare for environmental effects: in desert biomes, seek shade to preserve stamina; in swamp or forest biomes, be mindful of hail and rain affecting stamina.
  8. 8
    Boss Fight: Fabled Automaton Knights
  9. 9
    The boss spawns adds with AoE splash damage that charge up. Interrupt their attacks to beat them down.
  10. 10
    The Knight's sword crystal fires multiple projectiles that lock onto player positions. Use cover and line of sight to avoid them.
  11. 11
    Continue using regular tactics: line of sight, dash away from melee attacks, and use piercing pickaxe or blunt weapons. Aim for the crystal in its sword for bonus damage.
  12. 12
    After defeating the boss, retrieve the recipe for the Herbarium Realm Card.
  13. 13
    Craft a refined Enchanting Table, as the Herbarium Realm Card is a T2 Realm Card. Craft refined building pieces for your base to gather materials for this table.
  14. 14
    Upon unlocking the card, Puck should spawn. Talk to him to receive a quest to visit the Desert Herbarium, progressing the main quest line towards Nightingale City.
