As a nightmare, you have very powerful abilities but at a severe drawback which is that light will shut down your attacks. You must focus on destroying all lights if you want to win an encounter. Thankfully, your Light Eater, as the name implies is a great way to get rid of any light source. Hitting a person with it will destroy all of their active light sources. You can also use it to disrupt the lighting in an entire area by using the high damage potential to destroy [[Engineering_items#APC|APCs]]. Your shadow walk ability allows you to quickly get out and in of a battle which is a very useful ability.

It allows you to easily pick your fights by jaunting out if you see a group of heavily armed [[Security Officer|security officers]] heading your way and jaunt in if you see an [[Clown|easy prey]] wondering alone.

Nightmares cannot jaunt into lit rooms and will receive constant passive damage if they are in one. Remaining within safe lit up areas such as the [[Medbay|medbay]] will basically guarantee your safety as long as the lights stay on.

=== Deny escape ===
If there are no lights while fighting the Nightmare, it will simply leave if it feels it is losing. Deny escape! You can crack on a glowstick and throw it for a great way to stop a jaunted Nightmare from escaping, or set it on fire while it's manifested so the denial of its escape is attached to it. Be sure to always remain close to the nightmare and deny any escape route as if it escapes to darkness, the Nightmare will recover their health much faster than you will if you even can.
