Nightingale's card mechanics make it unique in its genre. They allow you to open portals to other realms and, depending on the cards you use, those realms will look different. While the Biome card determines the environment's appearance, Major cards create realm features, such as quests and points of interest.
One of these cards is the Antiquarian Major Card, which you can find it in the early game. Unlocking it requires some certain conditions to be fulfilled, so some players may need help. For this purpose, we have created a guide that will show you how to unlock the Nightingale Antiquarian Card.
Nightingale: How To Use A Campfire
The campfire is one of the earliest things you'll learn to build in Nightingale, but it can be a bit confusing to figure out how to use it, at first.
How to Get Antiquarian Card in Nightingale
To complete the Unlock Schematic: Antiquarian Major Card quest, you first have to meet certain requirements. Foremost, complete the Simple Sewing Bench quest. There, you need to buy a recipe from the Essence Trader and craft the Simple Sewing Bench. To do this, you need the following materials:
- 1 Bone
- 10 Wood Bundle
- 15 Plant Fibre
The materials are relatively easy to find, as you can get wood bundles by cutting down trees, fibres from interacting with small plants, and bones by hunting animals. Once you have crafted this workstation, you will have to craft a set of equipment on it to reach Equipment Rating 20. After that, you will unlock a quest where you can get the Antiquarian Major Card.
Go to the Antiquarian Site of Power. This place will be marked on your map, so you will be able to find it quickly. If you already meet all the requirements, you can go through the red portal in the building. Inside, you will need to destroy enemies on each floor until you get down to the bottom. The enemies are quite strong, but you won't have any problems with them if you craft some good starting weapons, such as a Simple Slingbow.
Nightingale: How to Dodge
Nightingale has the Dodge feature, which can save your life more than once. We'll show you how to Dodge so you can deal with tough enemies.
Once you reach the bottom floor, you'll find a mechanical altar. Press the button next to it to activate the mechanism, and a boss named Fable Automaton Knight will appear. He is quite clumsy but deals a lot of damage. Nevertheless, using ranged weapons and a companion, you likely won't have any problems with him.
After defeating the Fable Automaton Knight, return to the altar and interact with it to release the Hope Echo. After that, you will unlock the Antiquarian Card. You can craft it using Simple Enchanter's Focus with the following materials:
- 1 Paper
- 1 Ink
- 25 Essence Dust
