Which 5-Star Character Should You Choose in Zenless Zone Zero?

For the Star-Studded Cast Standard Banner where you’re able to get a free character, these are the 6 options you can choose from:

While most of these characters are great options, we suggest eitherchoosing Lycaon or Rina, depending on what you are more in need of. Lycaon serves as adebuffer, while Rina will be good forsupport.

Lycaon is a fantastic optionfor your team to make them stronger by giving them abuffto theirDaze DMG, while also activelyreducing the enemy’s resistanceto Ice. As for Rina, she is great all-around, being able to deal alarge amount of damageto enemies while also giving the rest of the team the ability toignore their enemy’s defense. She can work really well with Electric characters, as she will easily buff Shock reactions.

Overall, it is best to stick toLycaon or Rinaif you want to get the most out of the free options available to you. They can both deal impressive damage, while helping your team to stay as powerful as possible against the enemy. If you are in need of a debuffer for an Ice-focused team, go with Lycaon; if you are in need of some support for an Electric-focused team,go with Rina.
