Qingyi Guide – Best Builds

As a seasoned gamer and strategy enthusiast, I must admit that Qingyi has truly caught my attention in this game. With her versatile team composition abilities and impressive damage-dealing potential, she certainly stands out amongst her contemporaries.


In the game Zenless Zone Zero, Qingyi is a high-tier, special S-rank character who primarily inflicts electric abnormalities on enemies. Given that she’s a Stun Agent, she serves as the team’s primary source of stun damage, and can even amplify the stun levels of enemies due to her unique ability called Subjugation.

In this manual, you’ll discover top-tier stun DPS configurations for Qingyi following the ZZZ 1.1 update. Whether you’re a free-to-play gamer or a spender, this tutorial is tailored to your needs! Keep in mind that these builds are based on the standard starting level of the mindscape.

Overview

Qingyi Guide – Best Builds

In version 1.1, Qingyi, an android on the Special Response Team, is a distinctive electric damage dealer, serving as the team’s stun agent. What sets her apart from other high-ranking stun agents is her exclusive mechanic, Subjugation. By successfully landing her enhanced bloom attack and executing a perfect dodge during the final strike, she can accumulate stacks of Subjugation. Each stack increases the enemies’ stun damage multiplier by 2%, making it easier for her team to inflict stun damage. Although Qingyi may not be as effective at applying stun directly like Lycaon, she enhances her team’s ability to deal additional stun damage.

Below, you will find Qingyi’s best W-Engines, Disc Drives, Stats, Skills, Bangboo, and team!

W-Engines

SIce-Jade Teapot 

⭐ Impact

  • When a Basic Attack hits an enemy, gain 1 stack of Tea-riffic. Each stack of Tea-riffic increases the user’s Impact by 0.7/0.88/1.05/1.22/1.4%, stacking up to 30 times, and lasting for 8s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately. Upon acquiring Tea-riffic, if the equipper possesses stacks of Tea-riffic greater than or equal to 15, all squad members’ DMG is increased by 20/23/26/29/32% for 10s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.
  • As Qingyi’s signature W-Engine, this W-Engine fits perfectly with her kit, which relies heavily on basic attacks. Considering her basic attacks already have a stacking mechanic in the form of Subjugation, this will give it an additional stacking mechanic which will increase the overall stun damage Qingyi deals, as well as offer team utility by increasing the squad’s damage.

S – The Restrained

⭐ Impact

  • When an attack hits an enemy, DMG and Daze from Basic Attacks increase by 6/7.5/9/10.5/12% for 8s, stacking up to 5 times. This effect can trigger at most once during each skill. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
  • Similar to Ice-Jade Teapot, as Qingyi relies heavily on basic attacks, this W-Engine further enhances the amount of damage and stun that she will deal while using her basic attacks.

S – Hellfire Gears

⭐ Impact

  • When off-field, the equipper’s Energy Regen increases by 0.6/0.75/0.9/1.5/1.2 per second. When using an EX Special Attack, the equipper’s Impact is increased by 10/12.5/15/17.5/20% for 10s, stacking up to times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
  • As Qingy’s EX Special is able to be held in order to combo, that makes Hellfire Gears a very solid pick to increase the impact for Qingyi.

A Steam Oven

⭐ Energy Regen

  • For every 10 Energy accumulated, the equipper’s Impact is increased by 2/2.3/2.6/2.9/3.2%, stacking up to times. After Energy is consumed, this bonus remains for more seconds. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
  • At the end of Qingyi’s EX Special, upon using her basic attack, it goes straight to the third attack, meaning you can quickly make the most use out of Steam Engine with this rotation with increased impact, not to mention the energy regen main stat making it so that she is able to use her EX Special much more often.

A Six Shooter

⭐ Impact

  • The equipper gains a Charge stack every 3s, stacking up to times. When launching an EX Special Attack, consumes all Charge stacks, and each stack increases the Daze inflicted by 4/4.6/5.2/5.8/6.4%.
  • Similar to Hellfire Gears, this W-Engine is more suited for if you plan to have Qingyi off-field more often then being on-field, and when switched in, unleash her EX Special in order to deal a big amount of stun damage very quickly.

Skill Priority

ALWAYS PRIOIRITZE CORE SKILL FIRST!!!

Qingyi Guide – Best Builds

1. When it comes to taking on Qingyi, focusing on landing her basic attacks is key since they deal the majority of her stun damage. That’s where my main focus should be.

2. Enhancing her unique ability will boost both the damage and stun duration, it’s advisable to improve this alongside her regular attacks as well.

3. Since mastering evasive maneuvers significantly enhances her ability to accumulate Subjugation stacks and her dodge counter delivers substantial stun damage, it’s advisable to prioritize dodging as your third action.

Bangboo

S – Officer Cui

Key Trait – When there are 2 or more Criminal Investigation Special Response Team characters in your squad: After using an Active Skill, there is a 50% chance to trigger a follow-up with 1 extra hit, up to a maximum of 3 consecutive triggers. Bangboo Chain Attack DMG increases by 35%.

If you opt for the Zhu Yuan team composition, you’ll find two members from the Criminal Investigation Special Response Team. In this setup, Officer Cui becomes a formidable force, capable of inflicting substantial physical damage with their active skill. Moreover, this skill also enhances the power of its chain attack, making it particularly effective against elites and bosses.

Optimal Team Comps

Team 1 – Ether / Zhu Yuan DPS

Qingyi Guide – Best Builds

The Zhu Yuan / Ether-focused group, comprising of Qingyi, Zhu Yuan, and Nicole, guarantees that each team member maximizes their unique strengths. In particular, Anby’s fundamental attacks cause a 20% higher rate of Daze. If Qingyi’s Impact surpasses 120, every point above boosts her Attack by 6, with a cap at 600. Since Qingyi only necessitates an attack member in the team, she demonstrates versatility and can join many different teams. However, Nicole, the other Ether agent apart from Zhu Yuan in the game, needs Zhu Yuan present to activate her extra ability. Furthermore, Nicole’s capability of reducing enemy defense enables Zhu Yuan and Qingyi to inflict increased damage.

Team 2 – Electric

Qingyi Guide – Best Builds

As a seasoned gamer with over a decade of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that this trio – Qingyi, Rina, and Anton – is a force to be reckoned with. Their unique abilities make them an incredibly potent shock-centric squad in the world of gaming.

Overall Thoughts

Despite being surpassed slightly by characters like Lycaon in terms of solo stuns, she excels in team utility by increasing everyone’s stun capacity through Subjugation stacks. Her high-damage output in stuns, which is superior to other stun agents, sets her apart as one of the top stun units in the game.
