__TOC__
==Description==
'''The Nightmare Realm''' was the event [[Maps|map]] for the second night of the [[Hexscape Event]]. Like other event maps, this map had a specialized wave structure with special enemies. Players started with a varying amount of cash, based on how many players there were in the match. The rewards you receive were based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. This map had two difficulties, Easy and Hard.

Cash was only gained if an enemy was killed, or in some cases, damaged by a specific amount of health. Additionally, the amount gained was a set amount of cash, which was not always equal to the enemy's health. In solo, you received 100% of the cash when an enemy was killed, or it was damaged enough. With each additional player, this decreased by 25%, which meant that in a trio, you only got 50% of the cash. This amount was distributed between players based on how much damage they dealt. However, if a player did not deal any damage, they would receive a percentage of the enemy's full cash upon its death or when it was damaged enough, which was 12.5% in duo and 16.7% in trio. If it was a decimal, it got rounded up or down depending on the decimal value. If it was at least 0.5, it got rounded up. If it was less than 0.5, it got rounded down. For example, the [[Conserver]] gave {{Money|40,000}} after losing 5% of its health in solo, {{Money|30,000}} in duo and {{Money|20,000}} in trio between the players that damaged it. Players that did not damage it received {{Money|5,000}} in duo and {{Money|6,680}} in trio.

Health of enemies in this mode scaled with player count. The increase was 5% for each player, starting from two players, with an added set amount of health added on top of that increase. The first increase was not always the same amount, while the second increase had a varied amount it increases health by. Both increases were affected by enemy health.

This map had the [[HP Locked]] modifier, which set the base health to 100, the [[Blood]] modifier, which made enemies drop blood when killed and the [[Farm Banned]] modifier, which made [[Farm]]s not generate cash, though this effect was on the map before, it was just not displayed visually along with other [[modifiers]].

The final boss of this map was the [[Conserver]], though the [[Rotting Terror]], [[Conjurer (Hexscape)|Conjurer]] and [[Hex's Maw]] spawned with the [[Boss]] attribute for their first appearance.

==Design & Path==
'''The Nightmare Realm''' was located in a different world, which resembled some form of underworld. It had a red atmosphere with violent black winds. This world had a bleak red landscape, with a large black castle near the path and additional structures in the distance. Multiple spikes were also around the structures. There were also multiple rocks placed around the map. On one side of the map, a large black portal with orange outlines could be seen. On the other, a broken Super Computer could be seen, with multiple [[Super Computer Parts]] placed around it. These parts could be fixed, which moves them to the Super Computer.

The path started from a portal, which emitted electrical particles and had swirling winds around it, the path turned and looped around itself once before reaching the Super Computer. 

==Interactive Map==
{{Map:The Nightmare Realm}}

==Objective==
When starting the match, players would be notified of an objective that told them to "''Rebuild Super Computer''". This was done by buying [[Super Computer Parts]], [[interactables]] with varying costs that completed a structure at the map exit. If this was not done by Wave 20, the [[Conserver]] would spawn with massively increased health. However, this did not mean that a match was lost. If the [[Conserver]] was beaten, it still resulted in a triumph. This only made it significantly harder to triumph.

==Preset Loadouts==
In the Easy difficulty, there were three preset loadouts: ''Field Commander'', ''Enforcer'' and ''Big Spender''. If not chosen after 30 seconds, the loadout chosen would be randomized.

{{PresetLoadout
|Name = Field Commander
|Description = A mixture of support, utility, units, and high firepower.
|Icon1 = MinigunnerIconIV.png
|SlotLink1 = Minigunner
|Icon2 = DefaultFreezerIconIG.png

|SlotLink3 = Mercenary Base
|Icon4 = SoldierIconIV.png
|SlotLink4 = Soldier
|Icon5 = May17CommanderIconIG.png

}}

{{PresetLoadout

|SlotLink4 = DJ Booth
|Icon5 = DefaultMortarIconIG.png

}}

{{PresetLoadout

|SlotLink3 = Electroshocker
|Icon4 = DefaultTurretIconIG.png
|SlotLink4 = Turret
|Icon5 = DefaultGatlingGunIconIG.png
|SlotLink5 = Gatling Gun
}}

==Rewards==
The game calculated how many {{Coins|Coins}} and {{Exp|}} you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more {{Exp|}} (Friday – Sunday), any {{Exp|}} earned was multiplied by 2x through the [[XP Boost]] modifier. The VIP [[Gamepasses|gamepass]] also multiplied any {{Exp|}} earned by 1.25x through the [[VIP Boost]] modifier. These two boosts were additive.

Rewards are calculated as:
{| class="tds-table pad-10" style="text-align: center; margin:1em auto"
|-
!Coins Reward
!EXP Reward
|-
! colspan="2" |Easy
|-
|{{Coins|150}} ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + {{Coins|50}} (Triumph Bonus)
|{{Exp|50}} ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1])
|-
! colspan="2" |Hard
|-
|{{Coins|300}} ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + {{Coins|100}} (Triumph Bonus)
|{{Exp|100}} ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1])
|}

Triumphing '''The Nightmare Realm''' could give out an additional reward, which could be any of the [[Hexscape Event]] consumables. These items were:
*{{Color|Common}} (60%)
**[[Turkey Leg]]
***Easy: 1-3
***Hard: 1-4
**[[Pumpkin Bomb]]
***Easy: 1-2
***Hard: 1-3
*{{Color|Uncommon}} (40%)
**[[Sugar Rush (Consumable)|Sugar Rush]]
***Easy: 1-2
***Hard: 1-3

===Badges===
There were also a few [[badges]] which could be obtained when playing this map. These were:

{{Badge
|title = Night II Easy
|image = NewNightIIEasy.png
|obtainable = No
}}
{{Badge
|title = Night II
|image = NewNightIIHard.png
|obtainable = No
}}

==Wave Structure==
'''The Nightmare Realm''' had two wave bonuses, based on the difficulty. In Easy, the wave bonus was calculated as:
:From Waves 1–15:
:<big>{{Money|500}} + ([Waves Completed - 1] × {{Money|125}})^1.15</big>
:From Waves 16–19:
:<big>{{Money|500}} + ([Waves Completed - 1] × {{Money|125}})^1.175</big>
In Hard, the wave bonus is calculated as:
:From Waves 1–15:
:<big>{{Money|500}} + ([Waves Completed - 1] × {{Money|125}})^1.2</big>
:From Waves 16–19:
:<big>{{Money|500}} + ([Waves Completed - 1] × {{Money|125}})^1.225</big>

Regardless of difficulty, Wave 20 gave {{Money|20,000}}.

Depending on player count, the wave bonus was reduced using multipliers. These multipliers were:
{| class="wikitable pad-10 align-center" style="width:50%; margin:1em auto"
!Players
!Reduction per Player
!Total Reduction
|-
|Solo
|0%
|0%
|-
|Duo
|5% (Easy)<br/>2% (Hard)
|10% (Easy)<br/>4% (Hard)
|-
|Trio
|1%
|3%
|}
For example, on Wave 2 when difficulty was set to Hard, the wave bonus was {{Money|828.31597555}}, rounded down to {{Money|828}}. The full number was used in the equation. In duo, it was {{Money|795}} ({{Money|828.31597555}} × 0.96), while in trio, it was {{Money|803}} ({{Money|828.31597555}} × 0.97). The wave clear bonus appeared when every enemy from that wave was killed and no damage was dealt to the base health. It was 25% of the wave bonus in solo, while for duo, trio and quad it was 20%.

Waves could not be skipped in '''The Nightmare Realm'''. The waves in '''The Nightmare Realm''' mode followed these timings:
{| class="wikitable pad-10 align-center" style="width:50%; margin:1em auto"

==Strategy==
*The area around the loop that this map has is a great spot for towers, as it allows them to cover a large amount of the path and is close to multiple cliff spots.
*The [[Farm]] should not be used here, as it does not generate any cash.
*Multiple [[Tank (Attribute)|Tank]] can appear on this map on the Hard difficulty.
**Collision damage from unit collisions and the [[Trapper]]'s traps can eliminate them quite easily.
**Towers with a fast firerate, such as the [[Golden Soldier]], [[Engineer]] or [[Minigunner]] can also be pretty effective.
*The [[Gatling Gun]] is quite useful as it can damage multiple enemies while also dealing large amount of damage, make sure to line it up on a straight path so that it can fully utilize its pierce ability.
