Miyabi & Yanagi Disorder Team

			Bangboo
Miyabi	Yanagi	Caesar	Agent Gulliver

Switch from Miyabi to Yanagi

Use the powerful and unique Anomaly Miyabi has and then use Yanagi to inflict Disorder. Miyabi can increase Anomaly efficiency for herself and the whole team so you can deal extremely high damage by inflicting Disorder frequently.

Use Frostburn: Break & Shock

This team first will apply Frostburn Break with Miyabi then Shock after that to inflict Disorder. Inflicting Disorder is a must for this strategy, so always keep an eye on the enemy's buildup when fighting.

Character Replacements

Yanagi can be replaced with Brunice and Caeser can be replaced with Lucy or Rina. Note that you will need to take a different strategy if Miyabi is your only attacker or you don't have another Anomaly character.

Harumasa & Qingyi Team

			Bangboo
Harumasa	Qingyi	Rina	Plugboo

Qingyi Stuns the Enemy & Harumasa Deals DMG

Harumasa is a simple Attack character that deals high damage while the enemy is Stunned. Qingyi is a good match since she can Stun the enemy quickly and increase damage, while Rina can apply Electric buffs.

Character Replacements

Qingyi can be replaced with Anby while Rina can be replaced with Nicole, so you can actually have a team with the same strategy with free to play characters. The strategy will slightly change, but you can also combine Yanagi or Grace to include a Anomaly/Attack character.

Burnice & Lighter Team Composition

			Bangboo
Burnice	Lighter	Caesar	Red Moccus

Fight with Lighter and Burnice's Follow-Up

Leveraging Lighter's powerful fire damage support, you can build a high-damage team with Lighter's attack combined with Burnice's follow-up. While increasing the frequency of Burnice's follow-up through Lighter's multiple HITS, you can ensure a steady offensive while staying safe with excellent Dodge and the Caesar Shield.

Apply Scorched Then Bring in Lighter

First, use Burnice to apply Heat and Scorched, then use Lighter to fight. If you have enough energy for Burnice, it is also effective to long-press and apply Burn all at once, then perform a Quick Assist with Lighter.

Character Replacements

The slot for Burnice can be replaced with Lucy while Caesar can be replaced with Seth. Additionally, you can use Lighter in a Stun role and place Soldier 11, the main attacker, in Caesar's slot for a more powerful setup.

Burnice & Yanagi Team Composition

			Bangboo
Burnice	Yanagi	Caesar	Red Moccus

Disorder Specialty Team with Burnice and Yanagi

This formation creates Disorder by stacking Yanagi's persistent Shock with Burnice's Burn Anomaly debuffs, which is applied by allies. With Yanagi's Disorder Buff and Polarity Disorder effect, you can repeatedly deal massive damage using Burn and Shock.

Attack With Yanagi Until Heat Runs Out

When you're ready to follow up with a Shield and then Burnice, make sure to focus on generating Shock and Disorder Anomalies while attacking with Yanagi. It will be smoother if you monitor Burnice's Heat gauge carefully and switch to Burnice just before accumulated Heat depletes.

Character Replacements

As a key ally in triggering Disorder, Yanagi's slot can be swapped out for any other Anomaly Specialty Characters, aside from Jane and characters with Fire Attributes. For Caesar's role, other durable Supports are also highly effective, particularly Rina, who has excellent synergy with Yanagi.

Tips!	This team build revolves around Attack, Stun, and Support, with Anomaly and Defense characters placed in the support role, and their Base Stats being applied.

Jane Main Team Composition

			Bangboo
Jane Doe	Seth	Caesar	Bangvolver

Team Formation with Jane as the Core

This is a team composition around Jane as the main damage dealer, who can inflict powerful Assault attacks frequently. Use Seth's Anomaly Proficiency and Caesar's ATK Buffs on Jane to maximize the activation of her Assault firepower.

Tips!	Since you can use shield effects with Caesar's first, Seth's shield, which has lower durability, is less likely to be depleted.

You Can Also Aim for a Stun With Defensive Assist

Seth and Caesar can quickly refresh [Shield] effects from Defensive Assist and can also build up Daze significantly. Usually, you should fight with Jane who has [Shield] up, while also aiming for a stun with Defensive Assist.

Character Replacements

As characters that can support Jane, you can use various support characters in Caesar's slot. Seth has a fixed Base Stats role, but you can also replace him with the powerful stun character Qingyi.

Tips!	Since you want Jane to be active for a long time, various stun characters are generally not a good fit. However, Qingyi is an exception due to her strong support capabilities, making her a powerful choice even if you replace Seth.

Zhu Yuan Ether Team Composition

			Bangboo
Zhu Yuan	Qingyi	Nicole	Resonaboo

Main Team Composition Focused on Ether Attributes

This team is centered around Zhu Yuan with Qingyi and Nicole as supports. It is easy to inflict Ether DMG and is effective against Ether Weaknesses enemies that are often found in the environment.

It's Easy to Aim for High Damage During a Stun

Zhu Yuan has the ability to significantly increase damage dealt while stunned, so by pairing her with Qingyi, who can quickly inflict stun and greatly enhance the Stun DMG Multiplier, you can greatly boost your firepower.

Additionally, Nicole’s defense reduction and Ether damage increase make it easier to achieve instant bursts of damage, which is another appealing aspect.

Character Replacements

For Zhu Yuan's team, Enhanced Shotshells recovery and instantaneous damage from Stuns are important, so a Stun Character is necessary. If you don't have Qingyi, you can replace her with another Stun character.

Best Team Comps in the Current Meta

Best Attributes for High-difficulty Content

In challenging content like Shiyu Defense, use characters that have the Recommended Attributes as much as possible. Having multiple characters with the recommended attributes and including powerful attackers will have a huge effect.

Tips!	Note that there is a good chance that the strongest Attributes will change in future updates.

Need to Have 2 Teams

In Zenless Zone Zero, many challenges require using 2 teams. Therefore, it will be easier if you have at least two attackers and preferably two full team compositions that include an Attack, Stun, and Support character.

▼Belobog Heavy Industries PT	▼Ellen Main Team

Soldier 11 Fire Team

			Bangboo
Soldier 11	Qingyi	Lucy	Rocketboo

Increased Firepower During Stun with Soldier 11 and Qingyi

This is a combination of Qingyi's Daze Multiplier UP and Soldier 11's Fire DMG UP when stunned. Also use Lucy to enhance Soldier 11's Additional Ability and ATK, but you can use another character as long as they can support Fire Attribute characters.

Limited Options for Team Composition

The above formation can only be considered strong if Soldier 11's Additional Ability and Qingyi's Daze Multiplier UP are activated. As a result, the combination of Soldier 11, Qingyi, and a Fire Attribute character is necessary, leading to narrow choices in team composition.

Character Replacements

Ben is a Fire Attribute supporter and can replace Lucy since he can activate Soldier 11's Additional Ability. You can substitute Qingyi with a Stun character like Anby, but if you do, it's advisable to consider a different team composition.

Grace Disorder Team

			Bangboo
Grace	Rina	Jane Doe	Plugboo

A Team Formation aimed at Dealing Massive Damage through Shock → Disorder

This team composition aims for high-damage Disorder using Grace's Shock and Jane's Assault. With Grace being one of the few Electric Attribute attackers available, you can effectively control enemies with Electric Weaknesses by using Shock to prevent their actions while dealing significant damage.

Shock Can Be Applied Frequently and Efficiently by Incorporating Disorder

When you stack Disorder, you can deal the damage that would have accumulated in the remaining time all at once, allowing you to inflict massive damage and reapply Shock without waiting the full 10 seconds. During combat, it's effective to apply Shock with Grace when stunned or when your energy is charged, and then immediately trigger Disorder with Jane.

Character Replacements

As an ally for triggering Disorder, Jane's slot can be freely replaced with other Anomaly characters. For Rina's slot, you can also consider using other sustained high-damage supporters.

Nekomata Physical Team

			Bangboo
Nekomata	Caesar	Lucy	Bangvolver

A Setup Focused on Consistently Attacking Enemies With Nekomata

A team formation that mainly uses Nekomata to relentlessly attacks target enemies, boosted by Caesar's Anti-Interrupt UP [Shield] and Lucy's ATK Buff. Since this setup does not use any Stun characters, it's important to maintain the buffs continuously to achieve sustained high damage.

Increase Nekomata's Firepower with Quick Assist

Nekomata's damage will be significantly increased with Quick Assist or Dodge Counter. In the above team composition, only Lucy can activate Quick Assist, so use EX Special Attack → Quick Assist and switch to Nekomata, aiming to increase firepower.

Character Replacements

In this Hyper Carry setup, should you consider swapping out Nekomata from the DPS role, make sure it is with a character that can maintain their presence on the battlefield for longer. If you aim to trigger Additional Abilities, don’t hesitate to rotate characters as needed.

Piper Low-Rarity Team

			Bangboo
Piper	Seth	Lucy	Red Moccus

A Team Focused on Battling Primarily With Piper's Assault Damage

A Hyper Carry formation that battles with Piper, boosted by Lucy's attack power buff and Seth's Anomaly Mastery buff. While Piper's direct attack damage and strong hits both deal high damage, frequent use of Quick Assist requires some practice for effective operation.

The Order of Organization is Very Important

The formation mentioned above heavily relies on Quick Assist, making the order of character placement extremely important. Since Seth is positioned at the front and Lucy triggers Quick Assist for the next character, arrange them in the order of Lucy → Piper → Seth.

Character Replacements

You can use any Anomaly character as a primary attacker that can benefit from both ATK Buff and Anomaly Proficiency Buff. If you want to make substitutions, replace Piper with Jane and Lucy with Caesar.

Cunning Hares Starter PT

			Bangboo
Billy	Anby	Nicole	Avocaboo

Easy-to-Assemble Starter Team for Everyone

The above formation is a Cunning Hares setup composed only of characters that can be obtained by progressing through the story. It has good balance and can be adjusted gradually based on character availability, making it a versatile option for long-term use.

Good Balance but Poor Dexterity

While the initial character formation has a good balance of Attack, Stun, and Support roles, none of them have particularly outstanding abilities. As enemies become stronger, battles will become tougher, so be sure to make substitutions with new characters as you acquire them.

Character Replacements

Lucy is also available for free through Events, providing a boost in damage as a substitute for Nicole. As you acquire other attackers, you can replace them accordingly, while gathering the remaining characters to focus on different Attribute formations.

Victoria Housekeeping PT

			Bangboo
Corin	Von Lycaon	Rina	Butler

An Electric Attribute Team Mainly Centered Around Corin

This is a physical team centered around the A-class attack character, Corin, that aims to deal significant damage with consistent firepower. When stunning, be sure to use Lycaon for a quick touch and take advantage of the Daze Multiplier UP from Skills.

Tips!	Switching Corin for Ellen creates a powerful Ice Attribute formation. This setup is recommended for those who don’t have Ellen but do have Lycaon and Rina.

Stages With Multiple Enemies Are Challenging

While the above formation can easily achieve consistent firepower, Corin's attack range is limited, making it difficult to deal area damage. When multiple enemies appear, use Lycaon to Stun one enemy and reduce their numbers quickly with a Chain Attack or similar abilities.

Character Replacements

Ellen can replace Corin, and Soukaku can be swapped with Rina for similar operations. Since Ellen is a limited character and difficult to obtain, if you really want to use an Ice Attribute setup, you can also consider replacing Corin with Soukaku.

Belobog Heavy Industries PT

			Bangboo
Anton	Koleda	Ben	Safety

An Electric Team Centered Around Anton

This is an Electric team aims to deal significant damage with consistent firepower centered around the A-class attack character, Anton. Use Belobog Heavy Industries' specialty to aggressively target parries and Stun, and after Stun, unleash Anton to deal damage all at once.

Tips!	Belobog Heavy Industries characters consume fewer Assist Points for Defensive Assist compared to other characters.

Stages With Multiple Enemies Are Challenging

While the above formation easily produces consistent firepower, Anton's attack range is narrow, making it difficult to generate area damage. Although Ben has a wide attack range and can handle multiple enemies effectively, his slowness and lack of maneuverability might be a concern.

Character Replacements

Since this formation doesn't use Grace, you can easily convert it to a team designed for Disorder Anomaly by changing the attacker to an attribute different from Electric. Additionally, with Rina included, it can still be effective even if you replace a character that isn’t primarily focused on Attribute Anomaly, thanks to the PEN Ratio Buff.

Ellen Team Composition

			Bangboo
Ellen	Von Lycaon	Lighter	Sharkboo

Strengthen Ellen With Two Ice Support and Stun Extension

This is a setup that strengthens Ellen through the Ice support effects shared between Lycaon and Lighter, as well as the stacking of Stun debuff and extension. Ellen's combo can be fully enhanced with the extended Buff and Stun.

Defensive Assist + Aim for Stuns with Lighter's Fifth Hit of Basic Attack

You can aim for an early Stun while activating the Ice support effects with Lycaon and Lighter's Parry, EX Special, and fifth hit of the Basic Attack. Ellen's ability to remove all Buff or Debuff at once during Stun is powerful.

Tips!	By stacking Lycaon's Stun DMG Multiplier UP & Ice resistance down during Stun, you can also deal damage at once from Stun.

Character Replacements

Soukaku and Rina not only offer firepower support but also meet the conditions for Additional Ability, allowing them to switch places with either Lycaon or Caesar. Qingyi has strong support capabilities and is a good fit, but you’ll need to bring her in together with Soukaku or Rina to activate Ellen’s Additional Ability.

How To Build Teams And Tips

Base Team Should Consist of 1 Attacker + 2 Supporters

In Zenless Zone Zero's battles, the strategy is to attack immediately after Stunning the enemy. Therefore, instead of using multiple attackers, it is recommended to support the firepower of a single main attacker with two support units.

Tips!	Base your team on Attack + Stun + Support. An Anomaly or Defense character can replace the Support character.

Decide on the Character You Want to Use First

When creating a team, first decide on the one character you want to use. It will be easier if you choose an Attack or Stun character first that will spend time in battle for a particularly long time.

Select the Remaining Two by Faction and Attribute

Each Character has a powerful additional effect that can be activated when teamed with the same Faction or Attribute Character. For the remaining two characters, prioritize characters that can activate their Additional Ability, and then choose one with high Base Stats.

Be Careful When Assembling a Single Attribute PT

In Zenless Zone Zero, there is a powerful Disorder effect that activates when applying multiple Anomalies simultaneously. Unless you are enhancing a specific Attribute Anomaly, it is recommended to aim for Disorder by using two characters with the same Attribute along with one character who excels at applying a different Attribute Anomaly.

Tips!	If you have 3 different Attributes, it will be difficult to apply Attribute Anomalies so it is best to avoid it.
