Evelyn Build Summary — ZZZ S-Rank Fire Attack

The best Evelyn build in Zenless Zone Zero (Version 3.1) is Heartstring Nocturne with Hormone Punk 4-piece, CRIT DMG% > CRIT Rate% / PEN Ratio% > Fire DMG% / ATK% main stats. Prydwen's 19 Aug 2026 tier list ranks Evelyn T1.

The best W-Engine for Evelyn in Zenless Zone Zero is Heartstring Nocturne — Evelyn's own Signature Engine and unsurprisingly her clear best choice. Grants a tremendous amount of unconditional CRIT RATE and CRIT DMG and has an incredibly consistent combat buff offering up to 25% FIRE RES PEN for Chain Attacks and Ultimates which is perfect for Evelyn along with a massive damage multiplier. If you don't have it, Severed Innocence, Myriad Eclipse, Starlight Engine, Steel Cushion are solid alternatives.

For Drive Discs, run 4-piece Hormone Punk, using Disk 4 — CRIT DMG% > CRIT Rate%, Disk 5 — PEN Ratio% > Fire DMG%, Disk 6 — ATK% as main stats, and prioritise CRIT RATE (Until 75% in stat screen) and CRIT DMG on substats.

Level Chain Attack first, then Basic Attack, Special Attack, Assist, Dodge.

The best Evelyn team (Norma + Astra Yao) pairs Evelyn with Norma, Astra Yao. SD Rank 16 — App. rate 3.17% | Avg. time 29,892
