What is the best ZZZ Ben build? Ben Bigger is a brawny bear who works for Belobog Industries, but can also be a brilliant buddy in a brawl. OK, I can’t keep going with the alliteration, but we can’t resist a little bit – we are talking about Zenless Zone Zero, after all.
Wordplay aside, according to Zenless Zone Zero lore, Ben is an accountant by trade, but this smart bear also wields some serious power when it comes to taking on foes in the anime game – particularly Belobog competition. Packing a punch with Fire damage, this gigantic guy is most proficient in HP and defense, and can be a valuable part of some of the best ZZZ team comps – especially with the best Zenless Zone Zero Ben build below.
Best ZZZ Ben build
The best Ben build (is this getting old yet?) increases Ben’s defense and uses it in great force against the enemy, thanks to the one and only W-Engine pick for the bear. Thankfully, it’s a A-Rank weapon, so you have a better chance of pulling it from the latest ZZZ Banner.
The best Zenless Zone Zero Ben build is:
- W-Engine:
- Big Cylinder (A-tier)
- Drive Discs:
- Soul Rock (Two-piece set)
- Inferno Metal (Four-piece set)
Best ZZZ Ben W-Engine
| W-Engine | Effects |
| Big Cylinder | Damage taken is reduced by 7.5%. After being attacked, the next attack to hit an enemy will always crit and deals 600% of defense as additional damage. This effect can be triggered once every 7.5 seconds. |
Ben is quite slow in battle, but, as a defense character, where this big bear excels is in his defense and HP. With that in mind, there is really only one choice in ZZZ W-Engine for the big fella: Big Cylinder.
Given Ben’s slow and clunky movement, his ability to dodge is perhaps not up to the same standard as his teammates. Thankfully, the Big Cylinder W-Engine uses this to his advantage, making his next attack after taking damage an automatic crit, and dealing 600% of his defense stat as additional damage. Thanks to Ben’s high HP and the fact that Big Cylinder also reduces damage taken by 15% every eight seconds, this Belobog accountant can take a hit, so he’s perfectly positioned to use Big Cylinder to its full potential.
Best ZZZ Ben Drive Discs
| Drive Discs | Effects |
| Soul Rock (Two-piece set) | +16% defense |
| Inferno Metal (Four-piece set) | +10% Fire damage, plus 28% increased critical rate for eight seconds upon hitting a Burning enemy. |
When choosing Ben’s Zenless Zone Zero Drive Disc sets, we’ve started with Inferno Metal, a perfect choice as it increases Fire damage by 10%, and Ben is as much a Fire Attribute user as he is a defense character. In contrast, the Soul Rock two-piece set compliments the use of the Big Cylinder W-Engine, further boosting Ben’s defense for a greater effect on those reactive critical hits.
Each Drive Disc comes with its own random base stat as well, so if you have duplicates of any of the above and aren’t sure which to use, be sure to check which stat each boosts. For Ben, prioritize any disks that buff critical rate to compliment the Inferno Metal set, or defense, further stacking the benefits of your build’s W-Engine.
