First, you will get to meet a Lost Nux randomly with which you interact (R) with to call forth a Steel Nux of different levels by consuming different amounts of Energy.

To Spawn	Energy Consumed
<Normal> Steel Nux	20
<Awakened> Steel Nux	45
<Enhanced> Steel Nux	60

The more Energy you consume, the stronger Steel Nux you will get to battle with, which also means you will have a chance to obtain higher-tier rewards if you successfully defeat the stronger Steel Nux you spawn.
Steel Nux will not appear in Valencia regions. Also, Steel Nux will not appear at sea or underwater regions.
Steel Nux will appear in all servers except Arsha and Olvia servers.
If you are in a Party, you cannot spawn the Steel Nux by interacting with the Lost Nux.
Only the adventurer who spawns the relevant Steel Nux will be able to defeat it.
Once you engage in combat with a Steel Nux, it will disappear 10 minutes after the combat starts. If unattacked, Steel Nux will despawn in 10 minutes.
Only one Steel Nux will appear for an Adventurer at a time, and PvP will not be allowed once you engage in battle with the Steel Nux.
You will not be able to spawn another Steel Nux even if you spend more Energy while you are in battle with a previously spawned Steel Nux.

As Steel Nux spawns in Danger Zones, you may receive death penalty for being killed by it.
