Neverness to Everness (NTE) players looking to boost Hunter Rank (Hunter Level) quickly should focus on collecting and submitting Oracle Stones. These collectibles provide consistent Hunter EXP and other valuable rewards, helping you unlock higher character level caps, better anomaly rewards, and faster overall progression.
What Are Oracle Stones in NTE?
Oracle Stones are S-Rank collectibles scattered across Hethereau. They appear as red glowing ravens (crows) and are marked by a glitchy vortex symbol on the map.
Submitting them to Blackbird at the Witch’s House grants:
- Hunter Level EXP (200 per submission level)
- Annulith
- VitalMax Energy Bars
- Anomaly Material Selection Boxes
- Beetle Coins / Fons
- Increased maximum Stamina (for dodging and climbing)
How to Find Oracle Stones Efficiently
- Look for red glowing crows while exploring. They often perch on rooftops, alleys, ledges, and hidden spots.
- Early game: Manually spot them during quests.
- After submitting 12 Oracle Stones → Reach Divination Level 3 and receive the Oracle Crystal.
Using Oracle Crystal:
- Place it on the ground (radial menu) to reveal all nearby Oracle Stones within a radius.
- You can place up to 3 at once for efficient coverage.
- Use it actively while exploring new districts.
Pro Tip: Collecting Oracle Stones also contributes to map exploration progress and gacha dice rewards.
Where to Submit Oracle Stones (Witch’s House)
- Go to the Witch’s House in Bridge Crossings district (southwest of Wertheimer Tower / near Hankaku Street).
- Enter the house and speak to Blackbird (the witch).
- Select the Oracle option to submit all your stones in one batch.
Submit regularly to keep your Hunter Rank climbing and unlock progressive rewards.
Oracle Stone Submission Rewards & Divination Levels
Each submission tier costs a set number of stones and gives fixed rewards, including Hunter EXP:
- Level 1 (1 Stone): 200 Hunter EXP + Annulith, Energy Bar, etc.
- Level 2 (4 Stones): 200 Hunter EXP + Fons version
- Level 3 (7 Stones): 200 Hunter EXP + Oracle Crystal
- Higher levels continue offering similar EXP bursts plus better materials.
Turning in batches efficiently accelerates your Hunter Rank toward key milestones like Level 30.
