11Overview22City Commissions are repeatable tasks available throughout Hethereau in Neverness to Everness. They serve as the primary source of daily activities, providing character experience, upgrade materials, and currencies as rewards. The commission system is tied to the antique shop Eibon, which relies on taking anomaly-related commissions from the public to stay afloat. Commissions range from combat-focused anomaly hunts to service-oriented tasks like deliveries and investigations, and some feature creative puzzle mechanics that set them apart from standard quest designs.44Commission Types66City Commissions fall into several categories. Each type offers different gameplay and rewards different skill sets, from combat prowess to driving ability to detective work.88Anomaly Commissions1111The most common commission type and the bread-and-butter of Eibon Antique Shop's work. Anomaly Commissions send the player to investigate and neutralize anomalies that have manifested in specific locations around Hethereau. When approaching an anomaly site, the environment distorts visibly: buildings may become covered in static, objects float in mid-air, and the atmosphere shifts to signal the encounter ahead.1313Anomaly Commissions test the player's combat system skills, including stagger management, Esper Cycle reactions, and team composition. Tougher anomaly commissions may require specific elemental coverage or break-focused teams to handle efficiently.1515Delivery Missions1717Transport items or packages between locations within Hethereau. Delivery missions often involve timed driving segments, putting the player's vehicle handling to the test. The day-night cycle and weather conditions can affect driving difficulty during these missions. Rain makes roads slippery, and nighttime navigation requires more attention.1919Delivery commissions overlap with the Taxi Driver side activity in spirit, though they are separate systems. Taxi shifts involve picking up passengers for tips, while delivery commissions focus on transporting goods under time pressure for commission rewards.2121Investigation Tasks2323Investigation commissions emphasize detective-style gameplay. The player examines anomaly sites, gathers clues, interviews witnesses, and pieces together what happened. These commissions lean into the episodic mystery storytelling that defines much of Neverness to Everness's narrative.2525Some investigations feature creative puzzle mechanics. Examples include a city block that has been transformed into a cube, requiring the player to color sections to solve the spatial puzzle, or a building whose blueprint becomes a perspective puzzle that the player must navigate through physically. These quests stand out from standard fetch-and-fight missions and reward observational thinking.2727Crime Solving2929Crime-solving commissions put the player on the law enforcement side of the equation. The player observes criminal activity on the streets of Hethereau and intervenes to stop it. These commissions create an interesting contrast with the crime and wanted system, where the same player who might have caused mayhem earlier is now solving petty crimes as part of their Eibon duties.3131NPC Requests3333Requests from Hethereau's citizens cover a variety of personal problems and favors. These range from simple fetch quests to more involved multi-step tasks. NPC request commissions often provide flavor text and backstory about the city's residents, fleshing out the world beyond the main narrative.3535Commission Rewards3838Completing City Commissions provides a consistent stream of progression resources. The reward pool scales with commission difficulty and type.4040RewardDescriptionCharacter ExperienceXP for leveling characters.

These are distinct from standard City Commissions and typically involve elite anomalies or boss-tier enemies that demand well-built teams and mastery of the stagger system.4545High-Risk Commissions become available as the player progresses through the main story and increases in level. They are not part of the daily commission rotation but instead function as standalone challenges that reset on their own schedule. The rewards from High-Risk Commissions include higher-tier upgrade materials and rare resources that are difficult to obtain elsewhere.4747Eibon Antique Shop's Role4949The commission system is narratively framed around Eibon Antique Shop, the player's home base. Eibon is an antique shop on the surface, but it actually operates as an anomaly containment agency. The shop relies on taking commissions from the public to stay financially afloat, which gives the daily commission grind a narrative justification: the player is not just completing tasks for rewards, they are keeping Eibon's doors open.5151Commission postings come from Hethereau's citizens who have encountered anomalies, need deliveries handled, or require help with other problems. The player selects from available commissions, completes them in the open world, and returns for rewards. This loop forms the backbone of the daily gameplay cycle alongside the main story progression.5353Side Stories and Episodic Mysteries5555Beyond repeatable commissions, Neverness to Everness features episodic mystery side stories that play out like self-contained investigations. These longer-form quests follow the same detective and anomaly-hunting structure as investigation commissions but tell deeper narratives with multiple chapters. The storytelling is structured as episodic mysteries, each revealing more about Hethereau's supernatural underbelly while introducing memorable one-off characters and scenarios.5757Side stories often unlock through main story progression or by exploring specific areas of the city. They provide substantial rewards and are some of the best-written content in the game, blending supernatural investigation with character-driven narratives.5959Tips6161Complete a mix of commission types each day to earn the widest variety of rewards. Doing only anomaly commissions means missing out on materials exclusive to other types.Higher-difficulty commissions yield better rewards but require stronger teams. Check the recommended level before accepting.Some commissions are gated behind main story progression. If a commission type is not appearing, advance the story to unlock it.Investigation commissions with puzzle mechanics are worth seeking out. They break up the combat loop and can provide unique rewards.Don't skip the daily milestone bonuses. Completing the minimum number of commissions each day to fill the milestone bar adds up significantly over time.Crime-solving commissions pair well with the wanted system thematically. If you have been causing chaos, picking up a crime-solving commission afterward adds a fun role reversal.Delivery missions are faster with upgraded vehicles. Invest in vehicle customization if you plan to run many deliveries.
