Chaos delivers crushing on‑field DPS in Neverness‑to‑Everness, and the correct NTE Chaos build unlocks unparalleled teleportation and raw damage. This combination of arc power, cartridge synergy, and modular focus turns Chaos into a true battlefield destroyer.
Core Build Principles
In the NTE meta, Chaos excels when his Lakshana DMG and ATK% are maximised. The character already benefits from critical stats supplied by his chosen arc and cartridge, so duplicating Crit Rate past that point offers diminishing returns. Prioritising Lakshana DMG therefore yields the highest burst output.
Arc Selection
The flagship weapon for Chaos is What’s Desired, which grants a substantial Lakshana DMG increase alongside a crit damage boost. Alternative options should fill the same role of augmenting Lakshana DMG and ATK%:
- Camellia Society – excellent for Crit DMG and ATK% gains.
- Fluff of Ferocity – effective but requires additional Crit stats to stay competitive.
- A Time Will Come – a solid choice for A‑rank builds.
Cartridge and Module Strategy
The Street Boxer cartridge is the only viable cartridge for Chaos. Its set effect strongly amplifies Lakshana DMG and Crit Rate% when the team triggers Remora or Stain. To activate the cartridge fully, equip a module layout that follows the Type III Lakshana DMG bonus pattern, then cascade in ATK% modules. For sub‑stats, the priority order remains: Lakshana DMG, ATK %, Crit DMG %, and Crit Rate %.
Optimal Team Composition
Chaos thrives on teams that can impose Remora or Stain. The core ensemble is:
- Esper Zero – provides Remora application.
- Hathor – enhances damage and supports stances.
- Haniel – offers additional support and damage amplification.
Flexible alternatives include replacing Esper Zero with Hotori, or swapping Haniel for Jiuyuan. Free‑to‑play options such as Skia and Mint can also support Chaos, though they may lack the same scaling head‑on.
Free Annuliths via NTE Codes
Utilising the NTE code list available in our full guide grants access to free Annuliths, simplifying the acquisition of Chaos during banner pulls.
With its lane‑domination and steep damage curve, the NTE Chaos build remains a staple for players seeking top‑tier DPS without the bloat of less efficient units.
