Anomaly Commissions

Expanded with confirmed commission system and Eibon context
Anomaly Commissions are the core mission type in Neverness to Everness. These commissions task players with investigating and resolving supernatural anomalies that threaten the city of Hethereau. They form the backbone of the game's PvE content and are the primary way players encounter Anomaly Bosses.
The Eibon Antique Shop stays afloat financially by taking on Anomaly Commissions from the public. Citizens, businesses, and organizations post requests when supernatural disturbances arise. The player character, Esper Zero, joins Eibon as its first unlicensed Anomaly Hunter, lending their unique abilities to help the shop clear its commission backlog.
This setup provides the narrative frame for the game's mission structure. You are not a government agent or a guild mercenary; you are an antique shop employee moonlighting as a supernatural problem-solver.
Each Anomaly Commission typically involves traveling to a location in or around Hethereau, investigating the anomaly's source, and resolving it. Some commissions end with a straightforward encounter against anomalous creatures, while others culminate in a full boss fight against an Anomaly Boss with unique backstory and mechanics.
The investigations themselves can vary in structure. Some commissions focus on tracking clues and following leads before combat begins. Others drop the player straight into action. Narrative details in the briefings provide context about why the anomaly appeared and what is at stake.
Type | Description |
|---|---|
Standard Commissions | Regular anomaly investigations that form the bulk of available missions. These range in difficulty and may or may not feature a boss encounter. |
A more challenging variant with tougher enemies and greater rewards. These test a player's combat readiness and team composition. | |
A separate system focused on city-based tasks rather than anomaly hunting. These contribute to Hethereau's civic life. |
Completing Anomaly Commissions contributes to City Tycoon progression, unlocking new facilities, businesses, and quality-of-life improvements across Hethereau. Commissions also yield standard rewards such as experience, currency, and materials used for character and equipment upgrades.
The combat system's depth (parrying, stagger management, elemental reactions) ensures that commissions remain engaging even when replayed. Learning boss patterns and optimizing team rotations for faster clears is part of the endgame loop.
