This guide covers Console min-maxing in NTE (Neverness to Everness), including when to start maxing out your console and the relevant min-maxing criteria.
When to Start Min-Maxing Consoles?
Start at Hunter Level 30 or Higher
Min-maxing Consoles in NTE is recommended after reaching Hunter Level 30. In Rabbit Hole Difficulty III, which unlocks at this level, you can obtain S-Rank Cartridges. Additionally, Rewind Hard Mode becomes available at Hunter Level 30, allowing you to draw S-Rank Modules.
How to Raise Hunter Level FastThe Goal Is to Equip All S-Rank Items
For Consoles in NTE, both Cartridges and Modules gain stronger stats at S-Rank. Therefore, the primary objective is to upgrade all Cartridges and Modules to S-Rank.
Min-Maxing Elements
Two Console Types: Cartridges and Modules
There are two types of Consoles: Cartridges and Modules. Each character can equip one Cartridge, while multiple Modules can be equipped based on the available slots.
All Cartridges ListCartridge Effects Require Modules
Cartridges are paired with specific Modules, and their special effects activate when equipped together. When selecting Modules, prioritize those with the required shapes.
Cartridges Have Two Types of Stats
The min-maxing elements for Cartridges are Main Stats and Substats. Main Stats have a particularly high impact on overall performance, so prioritize optimizing Main Stats while also min-maxing Substats that provide strong synergy.
▼ Main Stat List| Main Stat List | |
|---|---|
| HP% | ATK% |
| DEF% | CRIT Rate |
| CRIT DMG | Cycle Intensity |
| Break Intensity | Healing Bonus |
| [Esper Type] DMG Bonus | Mental DMG Bonus |
Substats Can Be Checked from the Start
Console substats are unlocked through enhancement, but they are visible from the start. You do not need to enhance a Console just to preview its substats for min-maxing purposes.
 Tip! | Substat increases are not randomized; they are fixed values. |
|---|
| Substat List | |
|---|---|
| HP% | Flat HP |
| ATK% | Flat ATK |
| DEF% | Flat DEF |
| CRIT Rate | CRIT DMG |
| Cycle Intensity | Break Intensity |
| [Esper Type] DMG Bonus | Mental DMG Bonus |
| Damage | Healing Bonus |
Min-Max Modules for Shape and Substats
The min-maxing elements for Modules are slots and substats. Since Main Stats are fixed to ATK and HP, prioritize optimizing slots, as they also determine Cartridge special effect activation.
| Tip! | Substat increases are not random; they are determined solely by the number of blocks placed into the slots.. |
|---|
Modules Cannot Be Rotated
Since Modules cannot be rotated once placed, 2-tile vertical blocks and 2-tile horizontal blocks are treated as distinct items. Be sure to consider the exact required orientation when selecting a block.
Character-Specific Blocks Give Bonuses
Characters have compatible Modules, and equipping them provides stat bonuses. Keep this in mind when selecting Modules.
How to Min-Max Consoles
How to Min-Max Cartridges
- 1. Decide which Cartridge to equip on a character
- 2. Farm the target Anomaly Zone in the Rabbit Hole
- 3. Check the stats of the obtained Cartridge
- 4. If it's ideal or acceptable, level it up
First, decide which Cartridge to equip on your character. If you're not sure what to use, we recommend checking the build guide.
In the Rabbit Hole, the type of Cartridge you can get is determined by the Anomaly Zone. Check which Cartridges are available and farm the target stage.
After farming the Rabbit Hole, check the stats of the Cartridges you obtained. You can see all of its stats, including the ones that unlock after enhancement.
Once you get your ideal Cartridge, enhance it to increase its stats. If the character you want to equip it on doesn't have a Cartridge yet, it's recommended to enhance an acceptable Cartridge for now.
Cartridge & Module GuideHow to Min-Max Modules
- 1. Farm Anomaly Zones in the Rabbit Hole
- 2. Use the Rewind
- 3. Check the shape and stats of the obtained Modules
- 4. If it's ideal or acceptable, level it up
To obtain Modules, you will need Bronze Carrotas, which can be obtained in the Rabbit Hole. The rewards are the same on any stage, so just farm the Rabbit Hole to collect Bronze Carrotas.
Once you have Bronze Carrotas, use the Rewind to get Modules. You can use the Rewind from the bottom left of the character's Console screen.
In the Rewind that drops A-Rank and S-Rank Modules, you can also customize the shape of the parts that drop. This custom Rewind costs more coins, and if you select the same part, the coin cost increases by an additional 50% for each one.
Once you get Modules from the Rewind, check their details. Since the Main Stats are fixed, the elements to min-max are the shape and the substats.
Placing Modules involves two factors: the four blocks needed to activate the Cartridge's ability, and the shape of the character's board. If you're unsure how to place them, refer to the examples in the build guide.
Once you get your ideal Module, enhance it to increase its stats. It's recommended to prioritize the shape at first and focus on activating the Cartridge's ability and increasing stats.
