Zenless Zone Zero All S-Rank W-Engines

Introduction for Zenless Zone Zero All S-Rank W-Engines

In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), S-Rank W-Engines are the highest-tier weapons, offering powerful stats, specialized bonuses, and passive effects that significantly enhance an agent’s combat abilities. This guide covers all S-Rank W-Engines, detailing their stats, special abilities, and ideal agent pairings to help optimize your team for maximum performance in New Eridu.

Understanding W-Engine Channels

In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), W-Engine Channels are a specialized type of Signal Search dedicated exclusively to acquiring W-Engines. Unlike Agent Signal Searches, these banners do not feature S-Rank Agents—instead, all S-Rank signals obtained in a W-Engine Channel will be S-Rank W-Engines.

Each W-Engine Channel highlights a promotional S-Rank W-Engine, which has an increased drop rate compared to standard W-Engines. Alongside the featured S-Rank W-Engine, the banner also includes two A-Rank W-Engines with a boosted probability of being obtained. This system allows players to target high-performance weapons specifically designed to enhance certain agents and their combat effectiveness.

Understanding W-Engine Channels is crucial for optimizing your team’s power, as the right W-Engine can significantly boost an agent’s damage, abilities, and overall performance in battle. Players looking to strengthen their roster should consider these banners when seeking the best weapons to complement their playstyle.

S-Rank Drop Guarantee

In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), the S-Rank Drop Guarantee ensures that players will eventually obtain an S-Rank character or W-Engine, regardless of luck. The system is designed to provide a safety net for players who may have been unlucky with their signal searches. If a player performs 79 signal searches without obtaining an S-Rank signal, the 80th signal search is guaranteed to yield an S-Rank item. This means that no matter how many unsuccessful searches you make, your next signal search will provide an S-Rank, giving you a sense of security when aiming for rare and powerful items.

It’s important to note that the counter resets whenever an S-Rank signal is successfully obtained. After pulling an S-Rank, the count starts over, and the player will need to conduct 79 more signal searches before the next guaranteed S-Rank drop. This mechanic ensures that even with the randomness of the pulls, players are not left without a chance at high-tier rewards for too long.

Promotional S-Rank W-Engine Guarantee

In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), when an S-Rank signal is obtained, there is a 75% chance that the signal will be the featured promotional S-Rank W-Engine. This provides players with a higher probability of obtaining the desired W-Engine, though the remaining 25% of the time, it could be another S-Rank W-Engine. However, if the obtained S-Rank signal is not the promotional W-Engine, the system ensures that the next S-Rank signal obtained will be guaranteed to be the promotional W-Engine.

This mechanic ensures that players who are aiming for the promotional S-Rank W-Engine are not left disappointed for too long. In the worst-case scenario, it may take up to 160 signal searches to guarantee the promotional W-Engine—combining both the initial 79 signal searches for the S-Rank signal and the maximum of 80 additional searches to secure the featured W-Engine. This system offers both a safety net and a strong incentive to pursue the promotional item while still benefiting from the potential of other valuable S-Rank drops.

Modification

At every 10 levels, a W-Engine requires modification to further enhance its capabilities. This process also boosts both its Main and Sub Stats. The cost of modifying a W-Engine varies, depending on its rarity, and requires a certain amount of Dennies along with a Specialty-specific Component.

Carry-Over of Counters and Guarantees

Shared Counters Across W-Engine Channels

In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), the counters and guarantees for signal searches are shared between W-Engine Channels of the same type. This means that if you perform searches on one W-Engine Channel and do not obtain an S-Rank signal, your progress toward the S-Rank guarantee will carry over to the next W-Engine Channel of the same type. For example, if you are searching on a specific W-Engine Channel and fail to get an S-Rank, the next time you perform a search on another W-Engine Channel of the same type, the counter continues from where it left off, ensuring that the next search will be closer to guaranteeing an S-Rank.

Promotional S-Rank Guarantee Protection

Additionally, if you obtain a non-promotional S-Rank W-Engine from one W-Engine Channel, the system will guarantee that the next S-Rank W-Engine you obtain in a subsequent W-Engine Channel will be the promotional S-Rank W-Engine. This ensures that even if you do not get the desired promotional item right away, you will still be guaranteed to receive it in the near future.

Counters Are Not Shared Across Different Channel Types

However, it is important to note that these counters and guarantees do not carry over to other types of channels, such as Exclusive Channels, Stable Channels, or Bangboo Channels. Each channel type has its own distinct progression and guarantees, so switching between them resets your progress toward the S-Rank guarantee. Understanding how these counters and guarantees work across different W-Engine Channels allows players to strategize their signal search efforts effectively.
