This guide should give you a solid foundation to tackle the dynamic battles in Zenless Zone Zero. Remember, practice and experimentation with different Agents and strategies are key to mastering the combat system.
Understanding the Combat System
Agents and Roles:
•Attack: Deal high direct damage to end fights quickly.
•Stun: Specialize in quickly building Daze to stun enemies, allowing for chain attacks.
•Anomaly: Focus on applying debuffs through Attribute Anomalies to weaken enemies.
•Support: Provide buffs to enhance team performance.
•Defense: Have high survivability and counterattack capabilities.
Attributes:
•There are five main attributes (Fire, Electric, Ice, Physical, Ether), each with unique effects when triggering Attribute Anomalies on enemies. Combining different attributes can lead to a "Disorder" effect for significant damage and Daze.
Basic Combat Mechanics
•Movement and Dodging: Basic movement includes running and dodging, crucial for avoiding enemy attacks. Perfect Dodging at the right moment triggers a Dodge Counter, which has a Heavy Attack effect.
•Attacks:
•Basic Attack: The primary damage source, with variations when held or chained.
•Special Attack: Unique to each Agent, with an enhanced version (EX Special) available after enough energy is gathered.
•Ultimate: A powerful move shared across the team, activated by filling the Decibel Rating gauge through combat actions.
•Energy Management: Agents generate energy through basic attacks, dodge counters, and over time. This energy is used for EX Special attacks.
Advanced Combat Techniques
•Daze and Stun: Enemies have a Daze bar that fills with each hit, leading to a stun when full. Stunned enemies take increased damage and can be hit with chain attacks.
•Chain Attacks (QTE): Triggered on a stunned enemy by using a heavy attack, allowing for rapid succession of powerful moves from different Agents.
•Assists: When an Agent is about to be hit, switching can activate a Perfect Assist, either defensive or evasive, providing strategic combat advantages.
•Bangboo: These robotic companions aid in combat by automatically attacking and using skills. Some also have their own Chain Attacks, enhancing team combos.
Combat Tips
•Team Composition: Balance your team with a mix of roles to cover all combat scenarios. Using Agents of the same faction can unlock special synergies.
•Attribute Matchups: Before missions, check enemy weaknesses and tailor your team to exploit them for easier combat.
•Learning Combos: Each Agent has unique combos; mastering these can significantly boost performance in battle. Practice in VR Training to learn and perfect these.
•Resource Management: Manage your energy for EX Specials and your Decibel Rating for Ultimates to use them at optimal times.
•Combat Simulation: Use this mode to farm materials and practice without risking resources, helping to refine strategies and Agent upgrades.
General Advice
•Stay Mobile: Constant movement in combat can help in dodging and positioning for attacks.
•Timing: Master the timing for perfect dodges, assists, and chain attacks for maximum effect.
•Adaptability: Be ready to switch Agents frequently to exploit enemy weaknesses or respond to threats.
