Meditation is one of the most important progression systems in Beyond Nen. It allows you to earn Meditation EXP, which is required to unlock different Nen techniques and improve your character. If you want to master Nen and access more abilities, you will need to understand how this system works.
However, simply unlocking Nen is not enough. You also need to purchase a Meditation Mat, complete meditation sessions, and invest skill points into the correct Nen skill trees. Some Nen abilities also require specific mastery levels before you can unlock them.
In this guide, I’ll explain how to get Meditation EXP in Beyond Nen, where to purchase the Meditation Mat, how to unlock Nen techniques, and how to progress through the different skill trees.
Beyond Nen Meditation Guide – Unlock Nen Skills, EXP
Before you can start earning Meditation EXP, you need to progress through the Nen unlocking quest.
Once you reach Level 10, you can begin working toward unlocking Nen. There are three methods available:
- Complete the Hunter Exam: Pass the Hunter Exam and earn your Hunter License.
- Find all Seven Node Masters: Speak with all seven Node Masters when they spawn. They appear every 45 minutes, and you receive a notification when they become available.
- Get help from another Nen user: Another player can use their Nen to open your Aura Nodes. This method has a 3% chance of successfully unlocking Nen and can also give you the special Way of Nen talent.
After obtaining Nen, you need to continue the quest with Rohan in the Nen Cave.
Keep speaking with Rohan and following his instructions until he asks you to meditate. This is where you will need to get your Meditation Mat.

The Meditation Mat is required to meditate and earn Meditation EXP. You can purchase it from the merchant in the starter village.
Follow these steps to get your Meditation Mat:
- Travel back to the starter village.
- Find the merchant.
- Interact with the merchant to open the shop.
- Scroll through the available items until you find the Meditation Mat.
- Purchase the Meditation Mat.
- Open your inventory and equip it.
Once you have equipped the Meditation Mat, you can place it down and start meditating.
How to Meditate and Get Meditation EXP

After purchasing the Meditation Mat, you can start earning Meditation EXP.
Follow these steps:
- Open your inventory and equip the Meditation Mat.
- Place the mat down in a suitable location.
- Interact with the mat to begin meditating.
- Complete the meditation prompts.
- Continue meditating to earn Meditation EXP.
You will need to spend some time meditating to increase your Meditation EXP. This progression is important because several Nen techniques require a certain amount of Meditation EXP before you can unlock them.
Once you have earned enough EXP, return to the Nen Cave and speak with Rohan to continue his quest. After completing the required steps, he will teach you Nen.
Even after unlocking Nen, you should continue using the Meditation Mat because it is one of the main ways to progress through your Nen techniques.
How to Unlock Nen Skills in Beyond Nen
Once you have unlocked Nen, you can access additional options through the Skill Tree menu.
Press M on your keyboard to open the menu and navigate to the Skill Tree section.
There are several different categories you can invest your skill points into:
- Nen Ability
- Nen Skills
- Nen Technique
- Combat Styles
Each category serves a different purpose, so understanding their requirements is important before spending your skill points.
Nen Ability Skill Tree
The Nen Ability tree allows you to unlock abilities associated with your selected affinity.
Remember that your affinity determines which category of Nen abilities you can obtain. There are five main affinities:
- Transmutation
- Conjuration
- Enhancement
- Manipulation
- Emission
For example, if you have Transmutation, you can unlock abilities belonging to the Transmutation category, such as Godspeed, Rising Sun, and Earth Sludge.
However, unlocking an affinity does not automatically give you every ability in that category. You need to meet the required skill tree conditions and spend your skill points.
How to Unlock Nen Abilities
Some Nen abilities require you to unlock specific masteries before they become available.
For example, an ability may require Transmutation Mastery 4.
To unlock the required mastery:
- Press M to open the Skill Tree.
- Navigate to the Nen Skills section.
- Find the mastery category required by your desired ability.
- Check its skill point requirement.
- Spend your points to unlock the mastery.
- Return to the Nen Ability tree and check whether the ability is now available.
Some masteries require a considerable number of skill points, so make sure you plan your build before spending everything.
My recommendation: Focus on your main affinity instead of randomly investing in different ability categories. This will help you work toward the abilities you actually want to use.
Nen Skills – Unlocking Masteries
The Nen Skills section is important because it contains masteries required by certain Nen abilities.
For example, if you want to unlock an ability that requires Transmutation Mastery 4, you need to visit the Nen Skills tree and purchase the required Transmutation mastery.
This means you should not ignore the Nen Skills section when building your character.
Some abilities may look available in the Nen Ability tree, but you will not be able to purchase them until you meet their mastery requirements.
Before investing your points, check the requirements of the ability you want and unlock the necessary masteries first.
Nen Technique – How to Unlock Zetsu, Ken & More
The Nen Technique tree is where you unlock additional Nen techniques.
You can find techniques such as Zetsu and Ken in this section. Unlike regular abilities, these techniques have their own requirements that you need to complete before purchasing them.
One important requirement is Meditation EXP.
How to Unlock Nen Techniques
- Press M to open the Skill Tree.
- Select the Nen Technique section.
- Find the technique you want to unlock.
- Check its required Meditation EXP and other conditions.
- Use your Meditation Mat to earn more EXP.
- Once you meet the requirements, return to the Skill Tree and unlock the technique.
If you are missing Meditation EXP, simply continue meditating until you have enough.
The more you progress through this tree, the more Nen techniques you can work toward unlocking.
Combat Styles Skill Tree
Beyond Nen also includes a Combat Styles section in the Skill Tree menu.
This tree allows you to invest skill points into additional combat-related progression.
However, if you are still working toward unlocking your main Nen abilities and techniques, I recommend prioritising those first. Combat Styles are another option to explore once you have planned your main build and have enough skill points.
Best Tips for Meditation and Nen Progression
Here are a few tips that can make your Nen progression easier:
- Get your Meditation Mat early: Purchase it from the starter village merchant as soon as Rohan asks you to meditate.
- Meditate regularly: Meditation EXP is required for unlocking additional Nen techniques.
- Check skill requirements: Some abilities require specific mastery levels before you can unlock them.
- Focus on your affinity: Prioritise the Nen abilities that belong to your selected affinity.
- Save your skill points: Avoid spending points randomly because some masteries require a significant investment.
- Return to Rohan: Continue his quest after completing the required meditation steps to unlock Nen.
Meditation is an important part of Nen progression in Beyond Nen. You need the Meditation Mat to earn Meditation EXP, and that EXP helps you unlock additional techniques through the Nen Technique skill tree.
Remember to purchase the Meditation Mat from the starter village merchant, equip it, place it down, and complete the meditation prompts. After that, you can invest your skill points into Nen Ability, Nen Skills, Nen Technique, and Combat Styles.
If you want to unlock powerful Nen abilities, make sure you focus on your affinity and complete the required masteries. With enough meditation and skill points, you can gradually unlock more of your Nen potential.
