Inferno Reap
Last updated 2025-09-07
Inferno Reap is a permanent challenge released in Version 1.1, accessible from Hollow Zero: Withered Domain. It involves the suppression of the Disaster-class Ethereal Nineveh to prevent its growth.
Requirements
To gain access to Inferno Reap:
- Players must reach at least Inter-Knot Level 42.
- Completed at least a single run of the Withering Garden.
This will unlock the special Commission Foliage Hunt. Upon completing the commission, Inferno Reap will become permanently accessible from the Hollow Zero console at Scott Outpost.
Details
Inferno Reap tasks players with dealing as much damage to Nineveh as possible within 180 seconds, i.e. 3 minutes.
At the beginning of the fight, Nineveh will appear in its invulnerable closed state, with Constricting Vines around the field. Killing the Constricting Vines will increase the upcoming fight's duration by 1 second per vine. After 10 seconds has passed, Nineveh will come out of its closed state, and the countdown timer will officially start, signaling that Nineveh can now be fought. Any vines still alive when Nineveh becomes active will be killed off, and will not provide additional time for the player.
Asides from vines, killing Nineveh's summoned Hornets will also increase the fight's duration by 3 seconds per kill.
When the countdown timer drops to certain intervals, Nineveh enters what's known as the Overload Activation state, which increases both her attack damage, and the damage it receives. As the timer reaches intervals closer to the end, the effect of Overload Activation increases.
- 120 Seconds - 30% DMG dealt and received
- 60 seconds - 60%
- 30 seconds - 90%
If players manage to deal enough damage to Nineveh to full deplete its health, it will reenter its 10-second invulnerable state, pausing the timer along with growing another batch of Constricting Vines, giving players the opportunity to extend the fight. After its invulnerable state expires, it will reactivate at full health, making it available to fight once more.
The fight automatically ends once the countdown timer reaches zero, with the player's rank based off the amount of damage dealt to Nineveh.
Resonium Kit
Resonium Kits are a set of select Resonia which players can use to fight against Nineveh within Inferno Reap.
Upon completing Foliage Hunt, players are given a pre-made kit consisting of 21 select Resonia to use. Players can create their own sets by doing missions at the Withering Garden: upon successfully clearing a run, players will be asked whether they want to save the Resonia they have collected from that run as a set. Player-made Resonia Sets can include (Research) Resonium and (Artifice) Resonium, and any Catalyzed Resonia will retain their upgrades as well.
Note that any saved (Hollow) Resonium and (Affinity) Resonium will not take effect within Inferno Reap, and any (Artifice) Resonia whose effects only affect the Monitor Array will become useless as well.
Rewards
Collecting all rewards, will allow the player to fill out the Here It Once Swayed set of Lost Items from the Old Capital.
