Best Zenless Zone Zero Zhu Yuan Build
Zhu Yuan is one of the ZZZ characters that utilizes martial arts in her attack style, meaning she chains together attacks. Zhu Yuan is a member of Zenless Zone Zero‘s Criminal Investigation Special Response Team (CISRT) faction, and can only be obtained from a limited-time ZZZ banner. While her team comps are fairly limited because she’s only the second agent with the Ether attribute, she does pair well Nicole.
The best ZZZ Zhu Yuan build
To get the most out of Zhu Yuan’s martial arts and Ether attribute, we’re going to focus on increasing her damage output. To achieve this, our best build aims to strengthen her Ether attacks, turning her into a lethal DPS character.
The best Zhu Yuan build is:
W-Engine: Riot Suppressor Mark VI (S-tier) or Cannon Rotor (A-tier) Drive Discs: Woodpecker Electro (four-piece) Chaotic Metal (two-piece)
Best Zhu Yuan W-Engine
The Riot Suppressor Mark VI W-Engine, when fully upgraded, increases Zhu Yuan’s Ether damage by a huge amount in this build. Zhu Yuan’s damage is split equally between Ether and physical, and her physical damage output already has the edge over other similar characters. This is why we’ve chosen to focus on her Ether damage with her signature W-Engine. However, it is limited, so you can only obtain it during certain banners. That’s why we’ve provided the alternative Cannon Rotor option, which is flexible enough to be used for most attack agents.
Best Zhu Yuan Drive Discs
Where we’d usually recommend equipping the Woodpecker Electro Drive Discs alongside the metal set that corresponds to the agent’s attribute, we’ve changed our approach slightly for Zhu Yuan. Chaotic Metal is unique as it applies a debuff to the opponent rather than buffing the user. Therefore, Zhy Yuan doesn’t need to be the agent that holds the four-piece Chaotic Metal. Due to her synergy with Nicole, she can wear the four-piece, leaving Zhu Yuan free to take the four-piece Woodpecker Electro.
