NTE Ascension Materials List — All Mats & Where to Farm
Complete Neverness to Everness ascension materials reference: every mat name, the anomaly or weekly boss it drops from, and the most stamina-efficient farming order.
Ascension System
Every NTE character has six ascension tiers (A1 → A6) using a mix of elemental crystals, weekly boss drops and Pure Aether Shards. Ascension increases level cap and unlocks character passive nodes.
Element-Specific Crystals
| Element | Crystal | Best Farm |
|---|---|---|
| Frost | Frostpetal Crystal | Hethereau Outskirts — Frost anomaly nodes |
| Volt | Stormwire Capacitor | Hankaku Industrial Zone — Volt anomalies |
| Aether | Aether Filament | Reflection Spire weekly boss |
| Blaze | Cinder Sigil | Old Town anomaly chain |
| Anima | Anima Bloom | Eibon district side anomalies |
| Cosmos | Cosmos Fragment | Sky Temple weekly boss |
| Psyche | Psyche Resonator | Witch's House mini-game tickets |
| Lakshana | Lakshana Petal | Verdant Hollow anomaly |
| Chaos | Voidshard Catalyst | Patch 1.1 anomalies (TBA) |
Weekly Boss Drops
- Glacier Hollow: Eibon Drift Coil — used by Frost / Volt characters.
- Reflection Spire: Adaptive Core — used by Aether / Anima characters.
- Sky Temple: Cosmos Mote — used by Cosmos / Lakshana characters.
- Verdant Hollow: Verdant Sigil — used by Verdant / Lakshana characters.
Universal Mats
Pure Aether Shards are used by every character at every ascension tier. Daily Echo dungeons and the Anomaly Hub side missions are the only farming sources — plan stamina budget around them.
Most Stamina-Efficient Order
- Daily Echo dungeon (180 stamina per run, max 2/day).
- Anomaly chain matching your active team's element.
- Weekly boss matching your active team's element.
- Witch's House tickets — convert to Psyche / Lakshana mats only if you need them.
