The Forgotten is an A-Class Solid Arc that flexes between offense and defense depending on the wearer's HP bar. Its Picture Frame passive grants ATK while healthy and switches to DEF when HP drops under half, giving one Arc slot two completely different roles based on situational pressure.
The Forgotten is a 4★ A-Class Solid-type Arc in Neverness to Everness. It rolls a base 475 ATK at Level 80 with a 25% HP% substat. The primary skill, Picture Frame, defines its role across rotations and team compositions.
"Even if I'm just a complement to those masterpieces, I'm still beautiful too, right?"
The flavor text sets the Arc's tone and gives designers a quick lens on how the Picture Frame passive is meant to feel in play.
The Picture Frame passive provides the following effect at Refinement Rank 1: Increases ATK by 20% when the wearer's HP is above 50%. Increases DEF by 20% when the wearer's HP is below 50%.
Refinement ranks raise these values without changing the trigger conditions. The table below lists the per-rank scaling.
Level | ATK (HP > 50%) | DEF (HP < 50%) |
|---|---|---|
L1 | +20% | +20% |
L2 | +24% | +24% |
L3 | +28% | +28% |
L4 | +32% | +32% |
L5 | +36% | +36% |
Reaching Level 80 with full access to the Picture Frame passive requires six ascension breakthroughs. Each phase raises the level cap and unlocks the next refinement condition. The costs are fixed per Arc and do not scale with refinement rank.
Phase | Level Cap | Gold | Materials |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1 | Lv.30 | 16,000 | Iron Appleseed x3, Lost Whispers x3 |
Phase 2 | Lv.40 | 32,000 | Iron Appleseed x8, Lost Whispers x8 |
Phase 3 | Lv.50 | 48,000 | Silver Appleseed x5, Obscure Whispers x5 |
Phase 4 | Lv.60 | 64,000 | Silver Appleseed x10, Obscure Whispers x10 |
Phase 5 | Lv.70 | 80,000 | Golden Appleseed x5, Paradoxical Whispers x5 |
Phase 6 | Lv.80 | 96,000 | Golden Appleseed x10, Paradoxical Whispers x10 |
The listed compatible characters share the Arc's core synergy. Any character can equip any Arc regardless of element or skill fit, but these characters gain the full value of the Picture Frame passive thanks to their kits and scaling.
Character | Element | Rarity | Why It Fits |
|---|---|---|---|
5★ | Hotori's kit leans on hp-threshold-driven flex between atk and def scaling, so the Picture Frame payoff scales smoothly with their rotation and default playstyle. | ||
5★ | Jiuyuan's kit leans on hp-threshold-driven flex between atk and def scaling, so the Picture Frame payoff scales smoothly with their rotation and default playstyle. | ||
5★ | Esper Zero's kit leans on hp-threshold-driven flex between atk and def scaling, so the Picture Frame payoff scales smoothly with their rotation and default playstyle. | ||
4★ | Haniel's kit leans on hp-threshold-driven flex between atk and def scaling, so the Picture Frame payoff scales smoothly with their rotation and default playstyle. |
The Forgotten is acquired through the standard Arc acquisition methods in Neverness to Everness. A-Class Arcs can appear in the gacha system and its pity guarantees, in specific shop rotations, and in limited event reward tracks.
Method | Details |
|---|---|
Miracle Box tiles | A-Class Arcs can appear as rewards on Miracle Box tiles within the Arc gacha board. |
10-pull pity | A-Class or higher item guaranteed within every 10 pulls on the Arc banner. |
Gameplay and shop currency | A-Class Arcs are available through regular in-game currency shops and reward tracks. |
Confirm your chosen character's rotation lines up with the Picture Frame trigger before investing refinement materials. An Arc whose condition you cannot reliably fire is worth less than a B-Class Arc you activate every rotation.
At Refinement Rank 1 the values in the passive table are baseline. Early ranks give the biggest jumps; the last couple of ranks are smaller gains and usually not worth duplicating a 5★ Arc unless the character is a dedicated main DPS.
Pair The Forgotten with Solid-aligned Drive Blocks and KongMu Gear. Matching element on support gear stacks multiplicatively with the Arc's passive.
Keep the ascension materials in mind when planning farming routes. The final two phases jump from a 6x to a 12x requirement, which is often the real blocker for hitting Level 80.
Review the Compatible Characters table before equipping. Element mismatch still works, but the biggest multipliers assume the passive's trigger and your character's rotation are synchronized.
