Velina's signature and clear top pick: the Energy Regen mainstat is required to max her Core Passive, its Vortex DMG bonus applies to every Vortex the team triggers, and it adds teamwide Anomaly Proficiency. Best for both personal and team damage by a wide margin.

AltSerpentine SeekerS1

Serpentine Seeker stands in for any S-Rank Energy Regen engine. Since ER feeds Velina both Wind DMG Bonus and Anomaly Mastery, raw stat value is close to other options, and the extra resources (more EX casts, more Daze) make ER sticks her best non-signature choice.

AltFlamemaker ShakerS1

Burnice's signature only procs on Assists or EX Specials and its Energy Regen does nothing for Velina's Core Passive, so uptime can be shaky. Keep the buff rolling and its damage boosts plus off-field ER let it trade evenly with ER stat sticks.

Orderly Elegance

Priority

Sweeping Cyclone from the Additional Ability deals an additional 20% Daze. When Velina triggers Vortex, she ignores 20% of the target's All-Attribute RES. When squad members deal Windswept DMG, 20% of the target's Wind RES is ignored.

Saturation Project

Priority

When Velina triggers Windswept, she can also gain 1 point of Windbite (once every 5s). After Sweeping Cyclone triggers the Chromatic Tint effect, it can accumulate the corresponding attribute's Anomaly Buildup; the buildup accumulated by this attack is excluded from Anomaly DMG calculations. The DMG increase to Velina's Windswept and Vortex from the Additional Ability is further increased by 15%.

Chief Angel

When Velina consumes 2 points of Windbite to increase the DMG Multiplier of Vortex, she gains 1 point of Windbite (once every 6s). When Velina hits an enemy suffering a Wind Attribute Anomaly, the Wind Attribute Anomaly Buildup she inflicts increases by 20%. When Velina inflicts Windswept on an enemy already affected by Windswept, the new Windswept's DMG increases based on the remaining duration of the previous one: each remaining second increases the DMG by 2.5%, up to a maximum of 40%.

What tier is Velina in the ZZZ tier list?

Prydwen's 19 Aug 2026 tier list places Velina in Zenless Zone Zero at T0 as a Anomaly DPS.

Strengths

+The only way to reliably access Wind Anomaly as of her release, a huge upscale to many older Anomaly agents
+Notably high Daze on her skills, allowing much faster stuns and 3-stun routes previously not possible for double Anomaly teams
+Anomaly Buildup RES reduction and her signature W-Engine let her work as a pseudo-Support
+Very low field-time requirement — swap in briefly for EX Specials while Cyclones build Daze and Anomaly off-field

Weaknesses

−Doesn't offer much beyond being a Wind Anomaly applier, with only limited synergies via her Ablooms
−Awkward gearing and team-building priorities, as Vortex doesn't scale with her stats while Ablooms and Windswept DMG do
−Locking out Disorders makes her very anti-synergistic with much of the Anomaly cast (Yanagi, Alice, Miyabi)
−Eye of the Storm is fully swap-locked, and her Dodges, Dash Attack and Quick Assist are weak and best avoided
