Do This BEFORE 1.1 Drops in Neverness to Everness!

Story / Setting (What’s New in Patch 1.1)

• Patch 1.1 is coming in about a week and introduces Sunword Island.
• New characters include Lockosa and Chaos, along with new events/content to explore.
• The update is also designed around preparing for immediate day-one accessibility to new characters at launch.

Gameplay Highlights & Key Advice Before 1.1

1) Spend stamina/pixels efficiently (especially in endgame “rabbit hole”)

• Don’t burn all your stamina/pixels right now on gambling (gacha), even if there are guarantees.
• Prioritize spending on character upgrade materials, including:
  • Ascension materials
  • Ability level-up materials
  • Arc upgrades
  • Experience and beetle coins needed to level up
• Run the rabbit hole a few times now to stock up on gold/purple cartridges for the interim.
• Farming becomes more valuable later as your Hunter level increases:
  • Around Hunter level 40–45, your chance to get golden cartridges improves.
  • Eventually, you can guarantee two golden cartridges, making later stamina spending higher value.

2) Plan your teams like a “pre-load” for new characters

• Main planned team for patch preparation:
  • Hattorii, Nonali, Esper Zero, and G1
• Build readiness by gathering materials so characters can be maxed quickly when patch content drops.
• Day-one strategy for new characters:
  • If you plan to play Loramosa on release day, pre-arm/prepare materials now so you can ascend her immediately and use her right away.
  • The speaker is also prioritizing Sakiri and Haniel.
  • They’re also prepping for Daffodil, with the idea that they may use their last selector on her.

3) Budget / resource management (especially for limited banners and collabs)

If you’re low spender or free-to-play, evaluate:

• How many pools you have saved
• How much annualith you have saved

Then decide whether to spend toward:

• Getting Hattorii
• Or saving for Lacrimosa / Chaos

Additional notes:

• Watch for the Porsche collab, which costs annualith if you pull there.
• Tip: consider alternatives such as investing fawns into Porsche collab pools.
• The video encourages checking optimization videos for the collab system (noting China got it a week early).

4) Reset timers for exchanges + daily shop items

• Hunter exchange resets when Patch 1.1 arrives.
  • The speaker mentions reaching a personal maximum for non–real-money purchasing by buying:
    • extra annulith
    • 3 try keys
• Spiderwood (beetle coin box material) should not reset.
  • Recommended: buy it out since it supports daily extra beetle coins and helps reach max level for the house box.
• Lost exchange shop resets earlier than 1.1 (around early June).
  • Benefits include access to more banner pools (standard/limited), try keys, fawns, and potentially fluffy cotton.
  • Suggested: buy out anything before it resets.

5) Events to complete during the patch window: Whisker Patrol

• Whisker Patrol runs until the end of the current patch.
• Activity: fight anomalies in the city and fend off biker gangs.
• Rewards mentioned:
  • 280 annualith
  • 120k fawns
  • Expansion cores, which act as substitutes for other level-up materials and can save stamina/pixels long-term.

6) Endgame progression: Beyond the Rails (“Prime Circle” / “Fracture Circle”)

Prime Circle

• The speaker is at 16/30 stars and plans to finish before the reset in Patch 1.1.
• Key guidance:
  • Even free-to-play players at Hunter level 40 should be able to clear 30 stars with two teams, potentially even with level 60 characters.
• Cheese is highlighted as a major carry:
  • Strong for bossing rounds
  • Some players can even clear solo

Fracture Circle

• The beginner Fracture Circle does not reset.
• Clearing 30 stars once unlocks its rewards permanently.

• However, rewards like:

  • 750 annulith
  • train logs reset every patch.

• Tip: farm train logs to trade for materials supporting long-term progression.

Step-by-Step “To-Do” Checklist Before 1.1 (as described)

• Clear your journal/quests
  • Remove leftover quests and complete main story quests so you’re caught up.
• Do required spin-off content
  • Example: Loramosa spin-off episode is required to get the most out of her skill.
• Check the overworld map
  • Complete side quests marked by blue exclamation marks for Hunter experience.
• Collect oracle stones
  • Gather as many as possible.
• Spend city stamina and character stamina efficiently
  • Especially use it to be ready for 1.1 (including “pink paws,” as mentioned).
• Farm Beyond the Rails
  • Finish Prime Circle before it resets (speaker aims to reach 30 stars).
  • Consider training logs farming since they reset every patch.

Sources / Gamers Featured

• No external gamers, channels, or sources are named as “featured.”
• The speaker references in-game characters (e.g., Hattorii, Nonali, Esper Zero, G1, Loramosa, Sakiri, Haniel, Daffodil, Lockosa, Chaos, Cheese), but these are not presented as outside sources.
