How to start the Waking Nightmare quest in Season of Discovery

The Waking Nightmare quest is a part of the epic crafting quest chain, and it starts after you turn in The Lost Vambraces quest and get Decharged Void-Powered Vambraces. This part of the quest chain is in Stranglethorn Vale and begins after you interact with a mound of dirt next to Itty Bitty Murloc.

Once you have Decharged Void-Powered Vambraces, head to Moonglade and talk to Shadowy Figure at coordinates 52.0, 40.6. Shadowy Figure then transforms your Decharged Void-Powered Vambraces into Void-Powered Vambraces.

You can complete the Waking Nightmare quest in Season of Discovery after you equip Void-Powered Vambraces, defeat Nightmare Amalgamation during the Ashenvale Nightmare Incursion, and loot Mantle of Nightmares. 

You can’t take out Nightmare Amalgamation alone because it has a huge health pool and deals massive damage. Make sure to loot it and grab the Mantle of Nightmares. 

The epic crafting quest chain doesn’t end there, and you still have to go through the new dialogue options to learn it. Together with Nightmare Seeds, Inert Mantle of Nightmares is usually one of the necessary reagents for crafting epic gear, and you can get more by buying it from Rix Xizzix in Booty Bay at coordinates 28.4, 75.6.
