Let it never be said that Zenless Zone Zero Updates Zone Zero launch characters lack variety - Ben Bigger is a gigantic, anthropomorphic bear with better fashion sense than many of the stylish cast. He's a fire type defender, which means he occupies an incredibly rare role in ZZZ . How much that role matters to a given player is likely going to be how each person ranks Ben Bigger individually; he's a valuable teammate for those without much action-RPG chops or who simply want to have an easier, safer time with content, but he's largely unnecessary for those who can dodge w
This is directly opposed to the fantasy-inclining world of Genshin or the starfaring adventure in Honkai , for instance. Similar to the other HoYoverse titles, however, players can gather different characters in Zenless Zone Zero through a gacha banner system and then form teams, where each member of the party plays a role. As such, some characters are damage dealers, while others are healers, and others operate as supports and tanks, for example. As players progress through the campaign, they need to make their way through dangerous stages using these very characters to continue advancing through the st

Slotting her into a team I was familiar with already, it was immediately apparent to me that every character impacts their composition , whether it's as simple as the way their combat skills place them on the battlefield during and after their use or as complex as the varied buffs and debuffs that can be applied to friends and foes alike. As forgiving as some of ZZZ 's mechanics can be - I really don't think I'm as good at dodging as the game leads me to believe, for instance - its minutiae is no j
In Zenless Zone Zero , there is a specific distinction of characters for “support”. However, there are many more characters that can provide additional support utility to the team. That being the case, for this article's purposes, support characters is a broad term that includes not only in-game support role but also characters specializing in stun and defense. These characters play essential roles in maintaining team synergy and overall effectiveness in battles. Stun characters typically control the battlefield by incapacitating enemies and giving the DPS opening to deal significant damage, defense characters shield the team from damage, and traditional support characters offer buffs, crowd control and other utilities to enhance the team's performance. This diverse range of support roles allows players to create well-rounded teams capable of adapting to various challen
Billy Kid is one of Zenless Zone Zero 's starting characters, but that doesn't mean he's relegated to a newbie-friendly role - he's actually quite a viable team component when paired with teammates of the same attribute or faction thanks to a 50% damage boost to his Ultimate thanks to his passives. He's also a long-range damage dealer who, while very fragile like many other attack agents, is capable of doing massive DPS while remaining relatively safe, away from melee range of enemy units. He isn't the best damage dealer in the game by any means, though, and his low HP/DEF combination means he's going to be in trouble with even one fumbled do
Even though Zenless Zone Zero is different from HoYoverse games in a lot of ways, its core identity remains something familiar. It's a gacha game with a slew of different agents who then team up in groups of 3 to tackle content, which ranges from standard action-RPG battles to roguelite dungeon exploration. Combining the right agents is a satisfying experience, and even though Zenless Zone Zero is meant to be accessible to the point that every character is viable, there are obviously some standouts at release. Here's every ZZZ character ranked at launch for flexibility, impact, and
Koleda is currently the second-best stunner in the game and arguably a better choice for characters like Soldier 11 or Grace than Lycaon due to her higher synergy with them. Her kit is easy to master and can be fully utilized without heavy investment or strict rotations. Koleda fits well in many teams as a stunner, even without worrying about attribute or faction synergy, although she pairs exceptionally well with Ben. However, this could be seen as a downside, given that Ben isn't a particularly popular support unit at launch. Despite this, Koleda's versatility and ease of use make her a valuable addition to various team compositi
In addition to cross-progression, players will also have access to cross-platform play in the game . This means that players will be able to connect with their friends, regardless of the platform they use to progress through the title. Players should be able to add each other in Zenless Zone Zero through an exclusive in-game identity , which overpasses any boundaries normally imposed by platforms. Multiplayer in ZZZ is exclusively cooperative. In it, players can farm certain activities together with characters chosen by allies. All players control their own characters in real-time, which deactivates the time-slow mechanic after perfect dod
