Ink Blights are special shadow creatures that appear when players approach a Nightmare Fissure with a Dreadstone Outcrop. They appear in triplicate: always spawning one Shriek, one Rasp, and one Jitters. If all three Ink Blights are killed, the Dreadstone Outcrop will disappear.
All Ink Blights have planar entity protection, and thus general damage hit are less effective against them, in contrast, the planar damage hit and others damage source can effectively damage it. For example, a Shadow Reaper will deal 32.99 general damage and 18 planar damage to them instead of 38 and 18 respectively.
The Ink Blights will each take turns attacking the player in a predictable cycle, with the attack frequency of the remaining Ink Blights increasing as they are killed off.

Trivia[]
- Hovering the cursor over the Ink Blights will simply display each of their names as "Ink Blight". However, Characters with their respective Shadow Affinity perks are able to see their real names.
- The Ink Blights having red cloth tied around bodies made entirely of shadow makes them strongly resemble the Ancient Herald.
