🏆 S+ Tier: Meta-Defining Must-Haves (Top Priority)

Best Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 Tier List

These agents dominate every type of content and can carry full teams with the right setup.

Miyabi (Ice/Frost DPS)

The undisputed queen of boss melting. Frostburst cycles + insane crit scaling = unmatched single-target burst.

Yixuan (Rupture DPS)

DEF-ignoring damage monster. Sheer Force scaling + Lucia synergy makes him a top-tier carry.

Dialyn (Physical/Stun Support)

The most broken support ZZZ has released yet.
She literally turns Chain Attacks into full Ultimates, giving DPS characters double burst windows. Works in many comps.

Astra Yao (Universal Support)

ATK buffs, CRIT buffs, i-frames, healing — Astra is the most flexible support in the game. She makes every team better.

Yuzuha (Anomaly Support)

The heart of anomaly comps. Huge anomaly damage buffs + team ATK support = essential for Ether/Fire/Ice anomaly setups.


🥇 S Tier: Elite Performance with Slight Specialization

Lucia (Rupture Support)

Massive buffs, great Aftershocks, and the best partner for Yixuan and Banyue.

Banyue (Fire/Rupture DPS)

New Fire carry with DEF-ignoring conversion. Requires specific supports but hits like a truck with his W-Engine.

Trigger (Stun)

Off-field Daze machine. Constant Aftershocks, reliable stun cycles, and perfect for stun-centric teams.

Lighter (Stun/Support)

Extends stun windows and buffs elemental damage. Fantastic for Fire/Ice comps.

Hugo (Physical DPS)

Physical bruiser who excels during stun. Shines especially when paired with Dialyn.


🟦 A Tier: Strong, Reliable, and Fully Viable

Soldier 0 Anby (Attack)

Consistent White Thunder stacking + strong Aftershock damage.

Jane Doe (Physical DPS)

High mobility, versatile kit, and excellent for players who enjoy fast, fluid gameplay.

Zhu Yuan (Ether DPS)

Still strong with investment — just overshadowed by newer, more specialized units.


⚙️ Top Meta Team Comp Recommendations (2.4)

🔥 The Current Best Team in 2.4:

Dialyn + Yixuan + Lucia

  • Extra Ultimates

  • DEF-ignoring burst

  • Perfect synergy
    This comp destroys bosses faster than any other setup available.

Krampus Faction Synergy: Dialyn + Banyue + Lucia

Ideal for Banyue’s high-skill gameplay + stat buffs.

Anomaly Supremacy: Yuzuha + [Anomaly DPS] + Trigger

If you enjoy DOTs, control, and high-pressure gameplay — this is your comp.


🎯 Pull Priority Guide (2.4)

Must-Pulls (If Your Resources Are Limited)

  • Dialyn – Ultimate battery + stun queen

  • Astra Yao – Makes every team better

  • Miyabi – If you need ST burst

  • Yixuan – Best long-term DPS value (with Lucia)

Conditional Pulls

  • Banyue – High-skill DPS for players who enjoy complex rotations

  • Trigger/Lighter – Essential for stun-centric teams

F2P-Friendly Advice

A-tier units can clear all content — don’t chase every 5★ if your current teams work.

💬 Final Thoughts

Version 2.4 makes one thing clear:
Stun, DEF-ignore, and ultimate acceleration define the new meta.

Dialyn’s release alone has reshaped how teams function, pushing burst DPS units like Yixuan and Banyue to new heights. Still — don’t feel locked into top-tier units. ZZZ remains very build-flexible, and many A-tier agents can clear everything with proper investment.
