Hello all the NTE players! Shinku is ready to make her debut as the newest limited S-Class Cosmos character in Neverness to Everness Version 1.2, and now is the ideal time to begin preparing her upgrade materials. Fully investing in Shinku requires numerous Ascension resources, Signature Arc materials, Skill materials, and Beetle Coins collected from different activities. Preparing everything before her release allows you to upgrade her immediately and enjoy her full combat potential without any unnecessary farming delays.

This Neverness to Everness Shinku Materials Guide explains every material needed to fully upgrade Shinku, including her Ascension, Signature Arc, and Skill progression, while also highlighting the most efficient ways to farm each resource. Most of these materials can be easily obtained through daily activities, weekly bosses, and exploration, but the most essential part is consistent farming. To make your farming easier, you can use OSLink. This way, you can play your Neverness to Everness PC session from your phone to farm anywhere, anytime, even when you're away from your computer.

How to Prepare for the NTE Shinku: Pre-Farm Priorities

Shinku, the upcoming limited S-Class Cosmos character in Neverness to Everness, is expected to release in Version 1.2 on July 8, 2026. Her limited banner, "Before the Dawn," is expected to run until July 29, 2026. With her release getting closer, now is the best time to start preparing all the materials she will need.

If you are planning to pull her as soon as she releases, it is highly recommended to pre-farm Neverness to Everness Shinku materials in advance. Waiting until after release often leads to slower progress due to competition for resources and daily stamina limits. With everything ready, you can immediately level her up, ascend her, upgrade her skills, and strengthen her Arc (weapon) right after obtaining her, allowing her to perform at full power in new content and events from day one.

For better preparation, let’s find out the pre-farm priorities you should follow:

• Weekly Boss Materials First: Start with the Never-Ending Arachni weekly boss. You will need 35 Dress Sleeves of Vanity for full upgrades. Since it is limited to three runs per week, begin farming early so you don’t fall behind after release.

• Save Beetle Coins: Shinku requires a large amount of Beetle Coins for both her character and Arc upgrades. Earn coins through daily missions, weekly tasks, events, and by selling unused items. Keep saving consistently, because coins are used in almost every upgrade.

• Farm Whisper Materials: Collect all Whisper materials (Paradoxical Whisper, Obscure Whisper and Lost Whisper) before Version 1.2. These drop from enemies like Whisper Spawn, Wind Spawn, Lost Spawn, Empty Shell, Rain Sweeping Maid, Feather Puppet, Leech Spawn, and Octopus. Farming high-density areas will speed things up.

• Headless Rider Boss Farming: You will also need Charging Knight Spark Plugs from the Headless Rider boss. You’ll need many runs so use a strong team to clear it faster and reduce farming time.

• Life Skill Materials: Gather Dreamless Seed and Bureau Coins for Life Skill upgrades. These can be collected through exploration and Life Skill activities while playing normally.

• Farm Pigeon Materials: For skill upgrades, farm materials from the Watch Out for Pigeons activity. These can be collected alongside your daily routes to save time.

With these preparation strategies in mind, let’s move on to the exact upgrade materials required to fully level up, ascend, upgrade Shinku's skills, and enhance her Signature Arc to the maximum level.

Shinku Ascension Materials List 

Ascension materials are needed to increase Shinku's level cap and improve her stats including the HP, ATK and DEF to make her more powerful for the battles. Start by farming the required boss materials and Whisper enemies early to fully ascend her as soon as you obtain her. 

Below are the required Shinku Ascension materials you need:

Charging Knight Spark Plugs: These are the exclusive Ascension materials that you need to level up Shinku, and they are harder to collect. The only way to get them is through Headless Rider boss farming. However, this boss spawns only in specific open-world locations. Prepare for repeated runs with a stronger team because this is one of the time consuming requirements you'll face.

Shinku Skill Materials List

Skill materials are essential for upgrading Shinku's abilities and increasing her overall combat performance. Farm them while exploring the world and completing daily routes to max out her skills without slowing down the rest of her build.

Below are the required Shinku Skill materials you need:

Beetle Coins, Nestling Longings, and Dove Glitters: These materials are essential for upgrading Shinku's skills. You can obtain the Pigeon materials by completing the "Houdinii's Schemes: Watch Out for Pigeons" activity. Start farming them early so you have enough materials to fully upgrade her skills as soon as you get her.

Dress Sleeves of Vanity: This is one of the most time-consuming materials to farm because it only drops from the Never-Ending Arachni weekly boss. Since you can challenge this boss only three times per week, it is best to start farming now. Collecting these materials in advance will help you fully upgrade Shinku without unnecessary delays.

Shinku Arc Materials List

Shinku's signature Arc (Condensate Type) is designed to match her dual-form playstyle and maximize her damage. Farm Shinku Signature Arc materials as early as possible to enhance the weapon as soon as you get it. Having the required Drama Cores and Whisper materials ready will help you unlock its full potential on day one.

Below are the required Shinku Arc materials you need:

Drama Cores (Beginner, Master and Collector): Drama Cores are always essential for upgrading Shinku's Arc faster. To collect them, clear the Bubble Can Factory Anomaly Zone every day to earn Drama Cores. Higher difficulty stages drop better versions, including Beginner, Master, and Collector Drama Cores. You can also get them from the Hunter Exchange or craft them. 

Conclusion

That's all the required Neverness to Everness Shinku materials you need to invest in to fully upgrade her as soon as you obtain her.
