Nightmarish Nerbe is a mini-boss fought in Sanctuary of Dispersion.

[hide]Description
Annihilator Nerbe is actually a Tartan in disguise created by Luke from pure Black Nightmare. He infiltrated Anton to guard him and prevent the prophecy of Luke's death from happening, but his true goal was to absorb Anton's black smoke with something he wore called the Light Force Ring which was sealed at a time in order to keep Nerbe’s true nature under disguise. After Anton's death, Luke brought Nerbe’s body back to Castle of the Dead, modified his body, revived him and unleashed the ring's seal.
Move List
"This... Is... my... realm...": Nerbe teleports in the middle of the room saying "You can't get away from me." and he'll cast a purple bubble similar to Nen Guard and will move around for a few seconds. Unlike Nen Guard, he can be damaged inside the bubble.
"Darkness absorbs everything.": Nerbe will attempt to pull in players by using his palm while clouds appear above the room with black lightning striking down. He is invincible in this state and getting hit by the strikes will cause a blind status.
Purple Orb: Nerbe will cast a blue barrier around himself and says "Try to get out, if you can." and summons a purple orb near a random player that floats around, dealing moderate damage and could stun lock if not destroyed.
Purple Laser: Nerbe fires a laser blast that deals moderate damage.
Dash: Nerbe will rapidly dash at players for moderate damage while leaving a trail of lightning strikes which can knock them in the air.
- Shadow Pillars: Nerbe will knockback players and summon four pillars in each corner that'll create small red orbs which can possibly heal him back to full HP. These pillars must be destroyed immediately and failure to do so will cause him to do another berserk mechanic.
- "Confine them in Darkness"!: Nerbe will cast down lightning, capturing all players and making them unable to move. During this mechanic, players will have their HP tick away by each lightning strike until the last one nearly drains to 0.
Strategy
- When Nerbe utters "Ahh, the power of darkness is no more." he'll be stunned for a couple of seconds which leaves him vunerable to attack after using certain mechanics.
- It's possible to burst him down before he could perform any of his moves upon entering the room.
- Try not to overuse holds which can cause the beserk gauge to quickly fill up.
- All players must stay in Nerbe's bubble until the duration of it ends, stepping out of it will instantly trigger his "Confine them in Darkness"! move.
