Neverness to Everness — Complete guide

The Complete Life Skills Guide

Every City/Tycoon Life Skill in NTE, in one place — 19 abilities across 16 Espers, grouped by the city system they affect. Every name and level effect is copied verbatim from the game data: nothing rewritten, nothing ranked, nothing invented.

What this guide is built from

This is a cross-character aggregation of the in-game data field cityAbilities — what the site shows per Esper as the "Life Skills" section, gathered here into one comparable view:

  • Character page-data

    Every ability, icon and level description is read verbatim from the public character payloads the Esper pages already use. The same data, regrouped by city system.

    Esper list
  • Sea Angler — worked example

    Nanally's "Boss's Insights" (group: Others) is the Life Skill that powers fishing. The dedicated fishing guide goes deeper on that one activity.

    Sea Angler guide

Life Skills are the City/Tycoon system — they are NOT the Esper combat kit and do not appear on the combat/skill screen. The game data exposes no in-game unlock condition or menu placement (unlock is null), so this guide documents WHAT each ability does, not a verified step-by-step of where to toggle it in-game.

How to read it

Group = which city system

Management touches the Café/restaurant business, Others covers city minigames and services (Swift Travel, Treasure Hunt, Sea Angler), Vehicle the car economy, Bond the Affinity/gift system.

Levels = exact in-game text

Each numbered line is the ability's effect at that level, copied word-for-word from the game data. Higher levels stack the effects shown.

Character link = whose skill it is

Each card links to the Esper that owns the Life Skill — their page shows it in context alongside their combat kit.

What this guide does NOT claim

  • It does not rank Life Skills or name a "best" one — the game data carries no tier or priority information.
  • It does not document the in-game unlock condition or menu location — the data field for that is empty (unlock: null).
  • It does not convert or recompute any value — every number is the raw level text from the game data.
  • It does not cover combat skills, Arcs, Cartridges or Modules — those are separate systems with their own pages.

This is a faithful data reference, not a strategy tier list. It updates only when the underlying character data changes — not from outside sources.
