Zenless Zone Zero 2.6 Meta Guide — Sunna & Aria Tier Teams, Rotations & Pull Priority (2026 Update)

This 2026 guide consolidates and expands on our previous Sunna & Aria guides to cover the complete 2.6 meta — including new tiered teams, rotations, and pull priority advice.


πŸ” What’s New in Version 2.6 — Meta Overview

Version 2.6 introduces two major S‑Rank idols from the Angels of Delusion faction:

  • Sunna (Physical Support – Phase 1)

  • Aria (Ether Anomaly DPS – Phase 2)

These characters reshape the battlefield:

  • Sunna provides massive ATK buffs, Mesmerized debuffs, and guaranteed crit windows for Physical and Anomaly DPS.

  • Aria is a sustained Ether Anomaly carry, whose Abloom explosions scale with her Anomaly Proficiency for extreme DPS.

  • Their synergy allows up to 25–30% team damage increase over generic teams. 

For detailed disc and W-Engine builds, see our Sunna & Aria Builds Guide.

⚙️ Build Priority — Stats, Drive Discs & W‑Engines

πŸ”Ή Sunna – Physical Support

Drive Discs: Swing Jazz 4‑pc (maximizes team ATK)
Main Stats: ATK% (Slots 4 & 5), Energy Regen (Slot 6)
W‑Engines:

  1. Song of Thoughts (Signature – best energy regen)

  2. Weeping Gemini (F2P-friendly alternative)
    Stat Goal: 140%+ Energy Regen for consistent buff uptime 

πŸ”Ή Aria – Ether Anomaly DPS

Drive Discs: Chaos Jazz 4‑pc (max Anomaly Proficiency)
Main Stats: Anomaly Proficiency (Slot 4), Ether DMG% (Slot 5), ATK% or Anomaly Proficiency (Slot 6)
W‑Engines: Angel in the Shell (signature) or Flight of Fancy (F2P)
Stat Goal: Stack Anomaly Proficiency to 400+ to maximize Abloom damage 


πŸ”„ Rotations & Burst Strategy

Step-by-step execution:

  1. Start with a Stunner (e.g., Anby or Lycaon) – build enemy Stun Gauge.

  2. Deploy Sunna – EX Special applies ATK buff + Mesmerized debuff.

  3. Trigger Stun – quickly swap back to the Stunner to capitalize on the stun window.

  4. Switch to Aria – generate resources, unleash Level 3 Charged Attack on stunned/debuffed enemies.

  5. Secondary DPS – Billy/Anton trigger detonations during Aria downtime for additional damage.

Timing and resource management are key for maximizing Abloom damage. 


🎟️ Pull Priority — Who to Target First?

πŸ₯‡ Aria First

  • Ideal for accounts without a strong DPS

  • Self-sufficient, carries F2P teams

πŸ† Sunna First

  • For accounts with invested Physical DPS

  • Elevates existing carries, strengthens team synergy

Polychrome Budgeting:

  • Standard pull: 28,800 Polychromes for guaranteed S-Rank

  • F2P income: ~8,000–12,000 per patch

  • Strategy: focus pulls on the primary roster gap 


πŸ› ️ Summary: Build, Burst & Dominate 2.6

  • Sunna + Aria synergy defines 2.6’s meta

  • S‑Tier teams leverage debuffs + charged attack burst for max damage

  • Rotation execution is as important as raw stats

  • Pull strategy depends on roster stage: prioritize the gap (Aria = DPS, Sunna = support)

  • F2P options remain viable through reliable stun/anomaly combos

Maximize your 2.6 meta potential by planning builds, rotations, and pulls carefully.
