Overview
Damaged Crate is a S-grade special furniture piece in Neverness to Everness. Unlike standard decorative pieces, Damaged Crate grants a unique Anomaly Property effect rather than passive Comfort or Collection stats.

A wooden crate that looks like it could break with a slight push, but it's locked, much like a door that can't be opened from this side. The key is in the hands of the furniture shop owner, who happens to be quite the penny-pincher.
Property Effect
Damaged Crate unlocks the following effect while placed in the player's Anomaly Property:

About Anomaly Furniture
Anomaly Furniture is the rarest tier of furniture in Neverness to Everness, the gold-bordered S-Grade slot in the catalog. Each Anomaly piece carries a unique gameplay effect that activates while it remains placed in any owned unit, ranging from quality-of-life shortcuts (fast-travel back to the property, butler quick-completes) to combat boosts (deployed character ATK, DEF, or stamina costs) and economy buffs (currency drops, anomaly-residual conversions). Effects are global to the player's account once the piece is placed, so a single copy is enough to enable the bonus.
Tips
Anomaly Furniture effects activate once the piece is placed in any owned property unit; you do not need to keep the piece in active rotation across rooms for the bonus to count.
Damaged Crate is one of 18 known Anomaly Furniture pieces. Unlocking the full set is a long-term goal: most pieces are gated behind anomaly investigations, exploration milestones, or rotating event rewards rather than direct purchase.
Confirm the unlock condition before spending currency. Several Anomaly Furniture pieces are tied to one-time story or world events and cannot be re-acquired if missed during their availability window.
