Zenless Zone Zero Fighting Styles Guide
In Zenless Zone Zero, every character has a Fighting Style that corresponds to their playstyle and kit. This is a classification system similar to things like Attributes or Rarity.
There are five different Fighting Styles, and each one fulfills a different role within a team. An Agent’s Fighting Style also determines what W-Engines (weapons) they can equip.
If you’re coming from other games, Fighting Styles are essentially a “class” system. Here’s a quick list of the 5 Fighting Styles:
- Attack
- Stun
- Anomaly
- Support
- Defense

Let’s do a quick dive into each Fighting Style and what they exceed at in combat.
Attack
“Skilled at dealing massive damage directly though attacks, defeating enemies, and bringing combat to a swift end.”
As the name suggests, Attack character’s are designed to deal as much damage as possible. Every Agent will be unique, and some might deal more damage with their Basic/EX Special/Ultimate etc.
In general, Attack characters will want to build Crit Stats to further empower the damage they deal.

Stun
“Skilled at accumulating Daze quickly to Stun enemies, creating opportunities for the squad to deal damage.”
Stun characters specialize in a combat mechanic known as Daze. Daze builds up and stuns enemies, leaving them vulnerable, taking more damage, and activate Chain Attacks which deal massive damage.
Stun characters are an important team aspect to multiply the damage of your team.

Anomaly
“Skilled at accumulating Anomaly Buildup to trigger Attribute Anomalies, weakening enemies and dealing damage.”
Anomaly Agents specialize in the “Attribute Anomaly” mechanic. This is a special mechanic unique to each Attribute, dealing a variety of effects once you deal enough Attribute damage. (Burn for Fire, Shock for Electric, etc)
This playstyle provides an alternative to traditional Crit scaling Attack Agents by investing into Anomaly stats instead.

Support
“Skilled at providing buffs to allies and improving the squad’s combat efficiency.”
Support Agents are as expected, supportive. These Agents have kits designed to empower their teammates, provide unique utility effects such as grouping, buff, etc.

Defense
“Skilled at unleashing counterattacks when being attacked, with strong survivability.”
Defense is the last Fighting Style, and focuses on characters who can tank damage. These characters are powerful at tackling difficult content where surviving is an issue.
The Defense Style can also provide a comfy playstyle, not having to worry as much about dodging or parrying.

Closing Words
This wraps up our quick guide on Fighting Styles in Zenless Zone Zero. This classification closely resembles the “Path” system in Honkai Star Rail. In many other games, Classes fulfill a similar role.
These Fighting Styles will become a large consideration when building a team. You will want to balance your team with different Fighting Styles that compliment each other.
