A plethora of agents can join your Zenless Zone Zero roster. The top-tier or 5-star options are highly sought after, and they can carry your squad throughout the campaign. Naturally, you might be wondering which ones are viable. Here’s our guide on the best S-rank characters in Zenless Zone Zero.
Zenless Zone Zero best S-rank characters – Ideal 5-star agents to get from the Signal Shop
Zenless Zone Zero is a free-to-play gacha game. As such, it’s imperative that you avoid the need to spend an exorbitant amount of cash. Moreover, take note that there are freebie characters that can be unlocked as you progress.
For those looking to acquire 5-star or S-rank characters, you can find them in the Star-Studded Cast standard banner in the Signal Shop. The characters are Grace, Rina, Koleda, Nekomata, Soldier 11, and Lycaon. Here are some other tidbits to keep in mind:
- A premium currency called Master Tape is required to make standard banner pulls.
- The standard banner has a promotional offer where you can do 10-pulls at a lower Master Tape cost. You’re also guaranteed one random 5-star character within 50 pulls.
- Likewise, you can get a 5-star character of your choosing upon reaching 300 pulls.
- If you want to acquire the agents that you really need, you should be able to do so early in the game. There’s little to no investment as there are ways to receive Master Tape currency for free. You can learn more in our reroll guide.
- Note that other 5-star agents (i.e. Ellen and Zhu Yuan) come from limited-time banners, which we won’t discuss in this particular guide.
