Notes

2-4 Bug Nest sits in Act 2 of the Nightmare run at recommended hero level Lv 42. The stage runs 22 wave(s) with 286 kills and rewards 276,829 gold and 5,161,492 experience. Reaching this stage unlocks item level Lv 42 in the drop pool; rarity does not scale by area, so even 2-4 can drop an Immortal. The mini-boss is Venom Insect.
