Nightmare Vernimius Blightbeard
In The World of Dreams
In the second release of the World of Dreams, in October 2019, the Royals at KingsIsle introduced Two new Nightmare Boss battles. These battles are not for the faint of heart!
I believe this release for these bosses are intended for Pirates at level 78 and higher, due to the levels of the bosses. They can appear at level 79 to 82. So these battles are intensely difficult and designed for top-level players and as team up opportunities. This is one of these nightmare challenges.
Like all of the Nightmare battles, you will need an Obsidian Key to enter Blightbeard battle room inside the World of Dreams.
The Nightmare Battle
It’s worth reading the Creature page for Vernimius Blightbeard on Pirate101.Central’s website. He’s going to be TOUGH! This battle is definitely for a full team.
When you first pass through the Skeleton gate, you’ll step onto Blightbeard’s ship. You’ll have time to double check your crew before you begin the battle. Make sure your life is full, you have plenty of potion and you’ve arranged your doubloons and talents. You’re going to need them.

As you approach Blightbeard, he’ll talk to you.
And the battle will begin. You’ll be able to pick the crew members you’ll want to go into battle with. Pick your best fighters. Blightbeard and his crew will fight you up close and personal.
Like most of the nightmare battles, there will be obstacles in your way. And you’ll face off with Blightbeard, who can be Level 80 to 82. He’ll be joined by several minions. The more members you have on your team, the more of these opponents you’ll face. .

You’ll get to go first. Set up shields and power up your weapons first. Blightbeard will run across the ships deck and come straight at you. His minions will follow, but it might take them 2 turns to get to you and your crew. The Haywire Dragons are the second toughest fighters on the board. Both Blightbeard and the Dragons can kill you and your crew in one turn, if you’re Level 70s. And the Warf Rats are of course the easiest enemies to take out. You might focus on them first.
That’s as far as we’ve gotten so far. So I have no tips to share just yet. ::sigh::

Once you have defeated Blightbeard and won the battle, you’ll find an initial badge in your backpack. Keep finding Obsidian keys and defeat these Nightmare Bosses over and over again to attain the Collection badge for this battle!
I’ll post an image of the badge, as soon as we win it. 😉
I’m assuming that, like all Collection badges, once you’ve defeated a Boss 10 times, you’ll be presented with a new Collection badge to defeat the boss 25 times and so on. Much like the badges for defeating Moo Manchu. So keep battling!
Good luck!
