Build Summary

Zhao Build Summary — ZZZ S-Rank Ice Defense

✓ Verified buildT0.5 (Support) — Oct 2026

The best Zhao build in Zenless Zone Zero (Version 3.3) is Half-Sugar Bunny with Bunny in Wonderland 4-piece and Yunkui Tales 2-piece, HP% / HP% / Energy Regen main stats. Prydwen's Oct 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 Core Skill first, then Special Attack, 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
