11Overview2233Hunter's Crucible is a recurring combat-challenge activity in Neverness to Everness. Each run opens a ladder of escalating fights and pays rewards for clearing successive tiers. It is not tied to a single patch: the activity first ran as a named event in Version 1.1 and returned in Version 1.3 with a fresh set of challenge stages built around different bosses.4455Format6677Hunter's Crucible is built around escalating combat encounters. Each successive challenge fields tougher enemies, so clears reward team strength and well-built rotations rather than exploration or collection.8899Its first outing was one of several combat-focused additions in the Dreamwalk Corridor cycle, alongside the Underground Circuit racing mode and the Fight Club hand-to-hand activity.10101111Run History12121313VersionWindow (UTC+8)Featured ContentVersion 1.1June 18, 2026 (10:00) to July 8, 2026 (05:59)First run, part of the Dreamwalk Corridor cycleVersion 1.3August 19, 2026 (after the update) to September 30, 2026 (05:59)New challenge stages featuring Mammon and Morphix1414Version 1.1 Run15151616The first run opened on June 18 at 10:00 and closed on July 8 at 05:59, 2026 (UTC+8).
