Nightmare Incursions Highlight Phase 3 - Season of Discovery
One of the new features being introduced in Phase 3 Season of Discovery is Nightmare Incursions, a new PvE focused outdoor event. Blizzard has shared a Blue Post prior to Phase 3 launch explaining what a Nightmare Incursion is and how players can prepare for the event in Phase 3!

This is quite unlike anything we’ve done thus far in Season of Discovery and in order to prepare you for what you’ll face, we wanted to provide a short primer to help prepare you for your first few incursions.
So, what are Nightmare Incursions?
Nightmare Incursions are new outdoor content that is predominately PvE-focused (though PvP will occur on a PvP server in these ). You’ll start each incursion with a quest that you get at new Field Captain NPCs outside of each of the dream portals located in Duskwood, Ashenvale, Feralas, and Hinterlands.This quest will have you taking on the new demon creatures that have taken up residence just outside the dream portals in each zone. Once you’ve neutralized a number of these threats and made contact with an agent of the Emerald Wardens near the dream portal, you may return to the Field Captain to hand in the starter quest and you will be given a satchel with randomized mission that will take you into the nearby portal (to stage an “incursion” one could say) to perform a task.
Upon interacting with the portal you will be transported into the dream to start your missions. These missions could be a number of things from missions to slay targets, gather resources, or even defeat a very powerful boss.This content is very “old school” in nature as well, and is quite unlike more modern daily quest systems you’ve likely encountered in more contemporary versions of World of Warcraft.
