Build Summary
updated 2026-08-21Zhao Build Summary — ZZZ S-Rank Ice Defense
The best Zhao build in Zenless Zone Zero (Version 3.1) is Half-Sugar Bunny with Bunny in Wonderland 4-piece and Yunkui Tales 2-piece, HP% / HP% / Energy Regen main stats. Prydwen's 19 Aug 2026 tier list ranks Zhao T0.5.
The best W-Engine for Zhao in Zenless Zone Zero is Half-Sugar Bunny — Zhao's signature is a standout: the HP% mainstat makes the Initial Max HP threshold for full buffs easy to reach, its Energy Regen allows near-full Ether Veil uptime (and thus her Additional Ability's DMG Bonus), and it adds 10% ATK and 30% CRIT DMG. Not required, but a big upgrade. If you don't have it, Tusks of Fury, Original Transmorpher are solid alternatives.
For Drive Discs, run 4-piece Bunny in Wonderland with 2-piece Yunkui Tales, using Disk 4 — HP%, Disk 5 — HP%, Disk 6 — Energy Regen as main stats, and prioritise HP% (Until 27000 Initial HP) and Flat HP (Until 27000 Initial HP) on substats.
Level Special Attack first, then Chain Attack, Basic Attack, Assist, Dodge.
The best Zhao team (Ye Shunguang + Sunna) pairs Zhao with Ye Shunguang, Sunna. SD Rank 1 — App. rate 37.80% | Avg. time 37,098
