What Are Nightmare Resonance Crystals Needed For?
When you’ve reached Exalted with the Emerald Wardens, you can buy Nightmare Resonance Crystal for 75 Emerald Chip. This item allows you to pick Resonating Nightmare Bloom nodes in Nightmare Incursions without Herbalism. So far, Resonating Nightmare Bloom has only been found in the Ashenvale Incursion at several locations.
The Resonating Nightmare Bloom nodes can contain several herbs (e.g. 
Golden Sansam, 
Dreamfoil or 
Gromsblood), ores, green items or blue items, and 
Nightmare Seed.
Update: According to player reports, it seems as the respawn rate and drops of the Resonating Nightmare Bloom nodes were nerfed recently.
