Zenless Zone Zero Best Ellen Build
Ellen, an S-Rank ice DPS Agent, is really good at fighting up close in Zenless Zone Zero. She can dodge attacks and counter-hit fast, which can be helpful in close combat. To utilize Ellen’s full combat potential, the following build provides you with thebest W-Engines, Disc Drives, and Bangboo for Ellen Joe in Zenless Zone Zero.
Best Ellen ZZZ Build: W-Engines
Ellen is a main DPS character, so increasing her damage during her Roaming State is important. Here are the best W-Engines for her basic attack-focused style:
Deep Sea Visitor
This is an S-rank engine exclusively made for Ellen. Itincreases her Ice damage by 25%andCrit rate by 20% for nine secondsafter she deals ice damage to any enemy. Since many of Ellen’s skills deal with ice damage, this crit would have a very high uptime.
The Restrained
If you don’t get Deep-Sea Visitors, try going for The Restrained. It is another S-rank engine, which is the second-best option for Ellen. Let me tell you why. Itincreases her ice damage by 20%. Any time a basic attack deals with ice damage, the Restrained willincrease the damage by 12%and inflict more daze (toughness break). This could result in a 100% uptime boost to Ellen’s ice damage and daze if you use her ice damage attacks repeatedly.
Cannon Rotor
Another alternative S-rank W-Engine is suitable for Ellen. Itincreases Ellen’s crit rate by 8%, and when an attack lands a crit on an enemy, anadditional 275% of the attackwill be dealt with as damage. This effect only triggersevery eight seconds.
Electro Lip Gloss
This is the recommended A-class W-Engine for Ellen. When enemies are inflicted with Attribute Anomaly, Ellen’s attack willincrease by 10%and willdeal an additional 15% damageto the target.
Best Ellen ZZZ Build: Disc Drives
Since there are a total of six slots, you get a four-piece set and a two-piece set. I recommend you use the following disc combination, as they can make the most of Ellen’s powerful ice attacks.
4 Set: Polar Metal
The basic and dash attackdamage increases by 28%, whichis quite overpowered. Additionally, when a squad member freezes or shatters an enemy, thebuff will increase by another 28%for 12 seconds.
2 Set: Wood Pecker Electro
Along with a four-piece set of Polar Metal, run a two-piece set of Wood Pecker Electro. This willraise her crit rate by 8%.
Replace both the discs with each other and you will still see pretty broken Stats.
4 Set: Wood Pecker Electro
The crit rate is stillincreased by 8%. Additionally, if a Basic, EX Special Attack or a Dodge Counter crits, Ellen willgain a stack of 9% attack boost. The duration of this stack will be independent of each type of move.
2 Set: Polar Metal
This willincrease the ice damage by 10%.
Your 4th, 5th, and 6th slots of your Disc Drives are Variable Main Stats. Following is the Disk Drives Stat priority.

Best Ellen ZZZ Build: Bangboo
Bangboo’s can enhance your team’s overall damage output. The two best Bangboo I recommend for Ellen are:
If you use her correctly, Ellen is arguably the best S-rank character in the game right now. She can easily overpower any enemy if you know how to use her abilities well.
