What Is a Wanted Level?

Level that Shows Arrest Risk

In NTE, the Wanted Level is a level related to being wanted by the authorities. It increases when your "Warrant," which accumulates when you commit illegal acts in the city, reaches a certain point. When your Wanted Level reaches 1-Star, you will become wanted and be pursued by Security Officers.

Some Actions Are Restricted

Be aware that while you are wanted, you cannot teleport home, use fast travel, or shop at commercial facilities.

Sent to Detention Center if Caught

If any of the characters you are controlling is defeated, you will be caught by a Security Officer and transferred to the Hethereau Detention Center. You will be detained at the Hethereau Detention Center for 6 days and will be released if you pay a fine to the Security Officers or your detention period expires.

Hethereau Detention Center Guide

Note!

The detention period is in-game time, and if you complete the Hethereau Detention Center events as quickly as possible, you can get out in about 12 minutes.

Escaping is Possible

At the Hethereau Detention Center, you can escape before your detention period is over by taking specific actions. Since you can return to the city in a short amount of time without paying a fine, consider escaping if you get caught.

How To Escape from Detention Center

Boss Battle at Max Wanted Level

When your Wanted Level rises to the maximum of 4-Star, a battle with the formidable enemy "Justice Executioner Lv99" will occur. If you lose the battle, you will be sent to the Hethereau Detention Center, but defeating it will reward you with an S-Rare Arc, so if you are confident in your characters' strength, aim to defeat it.

How to Unlock Justice Executioner

Note!

Defeating the Justice Executioner will reset your Wanted Level and clear your wanted status.

How to Raise Your Wanted Level (Warrant)

All Methods List

Attacking pedestrians or Vehicles in the city
Attacking Security Officers or related Anomalies
Commandeering another person's vehicle (Vehicle theft)
Destroying public facilities by driving
Other acts that affect the peace of the city

In NTE, your Wanted Level (Warrant) increases by committing illegal acts in the city, such as attacking pedestrians or Security Officers, stealing or attacking Vehicles, and destroying public facilities by driving.

Easily Raise Wanted Level at the BAC

Since Security Officers do not come to the Bureau of Anomaly Control in the Area M10, you can raise your Wanted Level to the maximum without being interrupted. If you want to fight Justice Executioners, raise your Wanted Level at the Bureau of Anomaly Control.

Bureau of Anomaly Control Location

The Bureau of Anomaly Control can be accessed via the Phone Booth in Area M10 in the southeast of the map.

Enter the Security Office While Wanted

If you go to the Security Office with your Wanted Level raised, you will be sent to prison immediately. If you want to get caught as quickly as possible, it is recommended to warp to the Phone Booth near the Security Office in Miguel District, then steal a Vehicle and head to the Security Office.

Phone Booth Near Security Office

The Phone Booth closest to the police box is located on the east side of Ironheart 9th Avenue in Miguel District.

More Backup as Warrant Rises

As your Wanted Level rises, the Security Officer forces will be strengthened, with more personnel and the appearance of flying patrol cars. Therefore, if you want to raise your Wanted Level to the maximum, you need to avoid the onslaught from these Security Officers.

Security Officer Forces per Wanted Level

Wanted Level	Security Officer Forces
1★	2 Security Officers
2★	2 Security Officers + 2 flying patrol cars
3★	9 Security Officers + 3 flying patrol cars
4★	Mandatory battle with Justice Executioner Lv99 begins

When you reach Wanted Level 2, mobile flying patrol cars (Officer Whiskers) will appear, making it more difficult to escape from Security Officers. Also, even at Wanted Level 1, the number of Security Officers may increase if you continue to flee for a long time.

Benefits of Raising Wanted Level

Obtain "Hethereau's Keeper"

After defeating "Justice Executioner Lv99," which appears at the maximum Wanted Level, you can go to a Security Office to receive the S-Rare Arc "Hethereau's Keeper." Hethereau's Keeper increases damage to boss units and ca summon an "Officer Whisker."

Security Office Locations

Security Offices are located where the blue police officer icon is on the map. The Security Office will not be displayed when you first open the map; you will need to zoom in on the map to find it.

Being Sent to Detention Center

When you become wanted and are caught by a Security Officer, you will be transferred to the Hethereau Detention Center. In the Hethereau Detention Center, you can not only experience prison life but also pick up items and obtain the "Unconventional Attire" skin, which is exclusively available there.
