Pink Paws Heist Guide — Optimal Route for Maximum Fons

Overview

Pink Paws Heist is a roguelike game mode in Neverness to Everness where you rob a bank, fight bosses, and earn massive amounts of Fons and event currency. With the optimal route, you can earn 200,000+ Fons per run (approximately 1 million Fons per hour), making it the best Fons farming method in the game.

How to Unlock

Pink Paws Heist unlocks after completing the main story Chapter 1 and reaching City Tycoon Level 3. The entrance is located in the Pink Paw Heist HQ building (marked on your map with a pink paw icon).

Boss Strategies

Mini-Boss: Security Captain (B1)

• Element: Electro-type
• Key Mechanic: Deploys shield drones — destroy them first
• Weakness: Pyro attacks break his shield faster
• Tip: Stay mobile, he has a tracking laser that deals heavy damage if you stand still

Final Boss: Chief of Security (Rooftop)

• Element: Cryo-type
• Key Mechanic: Summons reinforcements every 30 seconds
• Weakness: Pyro element, especially AoE to clear adds
• Phase 1: Normal attacks, dodge the ice grenades
• Phase 2 (50% HP): Activates mech suit, gains a shield. Break the shield by attacking the glowing core on his back
• Tip: Bring a character with good mobility (Chiz, Phoebe) to get behind him during Phase 2

Fons Breakdown Per Run

Source	Fons Amount
Fons Cache #1	10,000-15,000

Fons Cache #3	20,000-30,000
Vault Bags	50,000-80,000
Enemy Drops	10,000-15,000

Pink Paws Event Currency

In addition to Fons, you earn Pink Paws Currency for the event shop. Earning rates:

• Standard run: 500-1,000 currency
• Perfect run (no deaths, all caches): 1,500-2,000 currency
• With Vault Card bonus: 2x multiplier

Event Shop Priority List

Spend your Pink Paws Currency in this order:

1. Tomorrow Rush car (30,000) — Excellent free vehicle worth 3-4M Fons in performance
2. Annulith Packs (5,000 each) — Always valuable for pulling characters
3. Character Pixel Boxes (3,000 each) — Needed for character upgrades
4. Modification Materials (2,000 each) — For vehicle upgrades
5. B100 car (20,000) — Only if you’ve bought everything else; weak vehicle
6. Cosmetics (varies) — Purely aesthetic, buy last

Tips for Faster Runs

• Use Pyro characters — Both bosses are weak to fire
• Bring a healer — Reduces downtime between fights
• Memorize the laser patterns — The corridor is always the same layout
• Skip optional rooms — Only enter rooms with Fons Caches; ignore side rooms with just enemies
• Upgrade your team first — If runs take longer than 15 minutes, your team needs better gear
• Play during off-peak hours — Server lag can affect the minigame timing

Vault Card (Optional)

The Vault Card is a premium item that doubles your Pink Paws Currency earnings. It does NOT affect Fons income. Only purchase it if you specifically want the event shop items faster. It’s not required for the Fons farming route.
