Infinity Nikki: How To Get Essence

Collecting crafting materials in Infinity Nikki is required for both making new clothes and completing certain quests, as some people ask for specific items, while some others require players to use a certain outfit to inspire them to make new sketches. At first, players can happily collect materials as long as they have the means to interact with their surroundings, but later on, high-rarity items call for advanced materials.

Essence In Infinity Nikki

To get Essence in Infinity Nikki, players simply have to collect the materials like they normally would. However, they must first unlock the respective upgrade nodes in the Heart of Infinity​​​​​​.

Animal Grooming, Fishing, Collecting, and Bug Catching all have their own upgrade, which means players have to unlock the node where they wish to get the Essence of. For instance, to get the Bunny Fluff Essence, players have to open the Animal Grooming upgrade, but if they wish to collect Starlit Plum Essence or Sizzpolen Essence, then they must upgrade the Collecting nodes.

Insight in Infinity Nikki is like material collecting EXP, so players can grind Insight by getting items. Each material grants a different amount of Insight based on rarity, and there’s a daily cap for insight collection. This means maximizing Insight gain can be a part of the players’ daily routine.

If collecting Insight manually is too slow or tedious, Stylists can also head to the Realm of Nourishment in Infinity Nikki and trade their materials and Vital Energy for EXP. Only items of brown rarity or higher can be swapped for Insight.
