What are the best Zenless Zone Zero team comps? You won’t get very far surfing the Inter-Knot on your lonesome, so it’s important to take a team of hard-hitting agents with you on your commissions. However, you might find that you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to team comps, and there are only so many level-up materials to go around. We’ve tested a variety of team comps to bring you the best options for combat.

Our selection of the best ZZZ team comps includes free-to-play starter units, as well as premium characters exclusive to Zenless Zone Zero banners. We’ve tested these team comps in version 1.0, so it’s worth bearing in mind that the gacha game could be subject to rebalancing between now and the next Zenless Zone Zero update.

Zenless Zone Zero team comps

Broadly speaking, the best Zenless Zone Zero team comps typically consist of a Daze applicator with high DEF (Defence) to tank hits, a burst DPS (damage-per-second) to consistently chain into, and a support DPS that can inflict crowd-control or status effects. We also recommend opting for at least one single-target and AoE (area-of-effect) damage dealer, so you can respond to all situations.

Many of the best team comps also gain unique buffs when paired with certain Zenless Zone Zero Bangboo, while others benefit from synergies and unique passive abilities from their teammates.

Here are the best Zenless Zone Zero team comps:

  • Anby, Nicole, Billy
  • Koleda, Ben, Grace
  • Rina, Grace, Anby
  • Lycaon, Soukaku, Ellen
  • Koleda, Lucy, Soldier 11
  • Anby, Nicole, Zhu Yuan

The Cunning Hares might be the ‘starter’ ZZZ team comp, but don’t let that color your impression of their performance. This enterprising trio is a perfect team comp for anyone finding their feet in the anime game. Billy and Nicole are excellent at controlling crowds – simply draw waves of enemies into Nicole’s energy field and let loose with Billy’s AoE-oriented kit.

Don’t forget to invest in Nicole’s Ether attribute to take advantage of Corruption – turning enemies against one another gives you a decent amount of breathing room to reposition, especially in the middle of a crowd. Be sure to outfit this team comp with Amillion, a Bangboo that increases the crit damage of all Cunning Hare agents by a whopping 56%.

The Belobog Industries crew is another ‘pre-built’ Zenless Zone Zero team comp that shouldn’t be overlooked. Naturally, with two S-Ranks onboard this comp is bound to pack a punch, but Ben holds his own thanks to his unique synergy with Koleda. He’s also capable of soaking up damage from the heaviest hitters, as well as assisting Koleda in triggering widespread Burn thanks to his Contractual Agreement passive ability.

Belobog Industries agents also benefit from their own faction-specific Bangboo. Safetyboo increases the PEN (Penetration) Ratio of all characters in this team comp by 35%, which is a boon for Grace in particular.

Rina and Grace are excellent Shock applicators, though this team is perfectly viable with Anton if you’re short an S-Rank unit. While they’re both relatively robust units with decent base DEF stats, both Rina and Grace lack the Impact necessary to rack up Daze.

Consequently, we recommend finishing this team off with Anby for a mono-Electric composition that ensures you’re inflicting Shock at a consistent rate. Anby’s Parallel Connection passive ability also grants her a burst of energy regeneration after a Dodge Counter, allowing her to reach her ultimate even faster.

Ice is one of the most powerful attribute anomaly effects in Zenless Zone Zero. Not only does it temporarily immobilize enemies, but it also delivers a powerful hit of burst damage once the effect has run its course. Consequently, this mono-Ice team comp is perfect for premium players who’d rather pile on the pressure without worrying about dodging enemy attacks.

Lycaon is the primary Daze applicator in this comp, though you can also trigger chains via Soukaku’s Fly the Flag ability to segue into Ellen’s devastating Avalanche. Ellen also benefits from this ZZZ team comp thanks to her Rising Storm passive, which grants her attribute damage buffs and allows her to stack Flash Freeze when initiating her EX Special Attack.

Koleda, Lucy, Soldier 11

Koleda takes point as the main Daze applicator in this mono-Fire team comp thanks to her high Impact stat, which enables her to trigger a chain attack after a single attack string. You should always prioritize Lucy first in this rotation, to ensure that her guard boars hit the field as early in the battle as possible before leaving it to Soldier 11 to dish out a burst of Fire damage with an assist attack.

After this initial setup, this team comp’s rotation is incredibly straightforward: simply bounce between Koleda and Soldier 11 to build Daze and Burn, with the occasional chain into Lucy to trigger her EX Special. You can also sub in Piper instead of Koleda if you’re looking for an A-Rank alternative. While she doesn’t bring as much flat-rate Daze application to the table, she shares faction synergy and applies enough Physical anomaly buildup to inflict Assault.

Anby, Nicole, Zhu Yuan

Anby’s role in this ZZZ team comp is fairly straightforward, channeling all her Electric attacks and Daze application into immobilizing your target while gaining energy regeneration from her faction synergy with Nicole. However, it’s Nicole and Zhu Yuan who take to the frontlines of this composition.

As the only other Ether character in ZZZ right now, Nicole’s DEF reduction and Ether damage buff are basically tailormade for Zhu Yuan. Chain attacks procced by Anby allow Nicole to consistently pull mobs into her energy field, providing much-needed AoE crowd control that maximize the damage of Zhu Yu’s Ether Buckshots. Nicole’s EX Special and ultimate also trigger a quick assist to segue neatly into Zhu Yuan, with the latter ability bestowing energy replenishment to help Zhu Yuan net Enhanced Shotshells with her own EX special.

Those are the best Zenless Zone Zero team comps in version 1.0, though you can be sure that more will be added to our list in future updates. Get a headstart on unlocking the premium units in each team comp with Zenless Zone Zero codes, which can grant free Zenless Zone Zero Polychrome Film for pulling on banners. Naturally, all team comps perform at their best when each agent is equipped with the best Zenless Zone Zero weapons and Zenless Zone Zero Drive Discs, so be sure to keep up to speed on those while you’re at it.
