Your Happiness is Priceless

Overview

Your Happiness Is Priceless is an S-Class Arc in Neverness to Everness. It is the most defensively oriented S-Class Arc available at launch, providing a large HP percentage increase and a utility effect that triggers when the wielder uses their Ultimate. Unlike the other S-Class Arcs, which focus on increasing damage output, Your Happiness Is Priceless is built around survivability and team sustain.

Each time the wielder uses their Ultimate ability, the Arc triggers one of three random supportive effects: healing the lowest-HP ally, granting a shield to the wielder, or providing a team-wide heal. These effects operate on a 30-second internal cooldown. Combined with the substantial HP bonus, this Arc turns the wielder into a durable anchor for the team, capable of keeping allies alive through sustained fights and challenging endgame content.

Lore

"Mm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm! (Give me Fons, when you're happy, I'm happy too!)"

The flavor text is presented as a humming melody, the kind of absentminded tune someone hums while content. The parenthetical translation reveals the Arc's personality: a cheerful, transactional spirit that finds joy in the player's happiness (and Fons). The whimsical tone fits the Arc's supportive nature. Where other Arcs embody power, ambition, or philosophy, Your Happiness Is Priceless represents simple generosity, giving healing and protection freely whenever the wielder acts.

Passive Effect

Your Happiness Is Priceless provides a permanent HP percentage increase to the wielder. This bonus is unconditional and active at all times, significantly increasing the wielder's maximum HP pool. The HP bonus scales with the Arc's level.

At L5, the Arc increases the wielder's HP by 40% and the Ultimate trigger values scale up accordingly (40% single-target Max HP heal or shield, 20% team-wide HP recovery). For characters who already have high base HP or who benefit from HP-scaling abilities, this is an enormous boost to both survivability and effectiveness.

Ultimate Trigger Effect

When the wielder uses their Ultimate, Your Happiness Is Priceless triggers one of three random effects. This trigger has a 30-second internal cooldown, so only the first Ultimate within each 30-second window activates an effect.

The three possible effects are:

The random nature of the trigger means players cannot rely on getting a specific effect at a specific time. However, all three effects are valuable in combat, so any result provides a meaningful contribution to team sustain. Over the course of a longer fight, the randomness averages out, and the wielder will trigger each effect roughly equally.

The exact healing and shield values scale with the Arc's level and the wielder's maximum HP. Because the HP bonus from the passive effect increases max HP, it also indirectly increases the potency of the Ultimate trigger effects, creating a positive feedback loop.

Recommended Characters

Your Happiness Is Priceless is best suited for tank or support characters who benefit from a large HP pool and whose teams need additional sustain.

• Fadia: Fadia is one of the strongest candidates for this Arc. Her damage redirect mechanic scales with her HP, meaning the 40% HP increase at L5 directly increases both her survivability and her damage output. The healing and shield triggers from the Ultimate provide additional layers of protection for herself and her team.

• Dedicated healers who want a larger HP pool to survive while keeping the team alive benefit from the passive HP bonus and the supplementary healing from the Ultimate trigger.

• Tank characters who draw aggro or absorb damage for the team become significantly more durable with the 40% HP increase, and the random shield effect provides burst damage mitigation during dangerous phases.

Your Happiness Is Priceless is not recommended for pure DPS characters who would rather have ATK, CRT DMG, or elemental damage bonuses. The HP increase does not contribute to damage output unless the character has HP-scaling abilities.

How to Obtain

Your Happiness Is Priceless can be purchased from the Arc Shop for 25 Tri-Keys. Like all S-Class Arcs, it is obtained through gameplay currency and is not subject to gacha RNG. Tri-Key is earned from story progression, Anomaly Commissions, events, and other in-game activities.

If your team lacks a dedicated healer or shielder, Your Happiness Is Priceless can partially fill that gap by providing supplementary healing and shielding through the Ultimate trigger. However, it should not be treated as a replacement for a proper support character; the healing and shielding are random and limited by the 30-second cooldown.

Strategy and Tips

1. Stack HP from all sources. The Ultimate trigger effects scale with the wielder's max HP. Pair Your Happiness Is Priceless with HP-boosting KongMu Gear and Console Equipment to maximize the healing and shield values from each trigger.

2. Use Ultimates on cooldown. Since the trigger has a 30-second internal cooldown, try to use the wielder's Ultimate every 30 seconds to get the maximum number of triggers per fight. The Charge Speed stat from other sources can help ensure the Ultimate is ready each time the cooldown resets.

3. Do not rely on specific effects. The random nature means you might get a shield when you need a heal, or vice versa. Build your team with enough baseline sustain that any of the three effects is a helpful bonus rather than a critical lifeline.

4. Pair with Fadia for maximum value. Fadia's kit makes her the ideal wielder. Her damage redirect benefits from high HP, and the healing and shielding triggers keep her alive through the redirected damage. If you have Fadia on your team, Your Happiness Is Priceless should be your first S-Class Arc purchase.

5. Consider the 30-second cooldown in boss fights. In long boss encounters, the 30-second cooldown limits how often the trigger activates. Time your Ultimates to align with dangerous boss attack patterns so the healing or shield effect is most impactful when you need it.

Ascension Materials

Reaching Level 80 with full access to the Nacupeda passive requires six ascension breakthroughs. Each phase raises the Arc's level cap, lets its substat continue scaling, and unlocks the next refinement condition. Material and gold costs are fixed per Arc and do not change with refinement rank.
