Overview
Wandering Nightmares is a 40-point Moon destination triumph associated with Shadowkeep. Defeat all four roaming Nightmare encounters to earn the Moonshot Shell, which contributes to the Harbinger collection requirements.
How to complete
The encounters rotate weekly in a four-week cycle; only the active encounter can be summoned. Find its red cloud, interact to start the fight, clear accompanying enemies and defeat the boss. Bring a fireteam if needed and return after weekly resets for the other encounters.
| Encounter | Patrol location |
|---|---|
| Fallen Council | Archer's Line |
| Nightmare of Xortal, Sworn of Crota | Sorrow's Harbor |
| Nightmare of Horkis, Fear of Mithrax | Anchor of Light |
| Nightmare of Jaxx, Claw of Xivu Arath | Hellmouth |
For Horkis, enter the blue-lit cave between the buildings near the K1 Communion entrance and turn right toward the ledge. These patrol encounters are separate from Nightmare Hunts. Claim the completed triumph to receive the shell; the old Powerful gear reward is no longer offered.
