Zenless Zone Zero Seth build: Best W-engine and Drive Discs

Building Seth in Zenless Zone Zero isn’t difficult considering he can use a variety of accessible equipment. He craves Impact, Attack, and Anomaly Proficiency stats, which are easy to obtain.

Here are the best W-Engine and Drive Discs for Seth in ZZZ.

Best W-engine for Seth

1) Peacekeeper - Specialized

The Peacekeeper - Specialized is seemingly Seth’s signature W-Engine, which is equipped with double Attack stats. The passive increases the wearer’s Energy Regen by 0.4 units per second while shielded. Additionally, the character’s Anomaly Buildup of EX Special Attacks and Assist Follow-Ups will be boosted by 36%.

2) Original Transmorpher

As an alternate A-Rank W-Engine, the Original Transmorpher provides 8% HP to the wielder. The character will also gain 10% Impact for 12 seconds when attacked. Since Seth will be used to frequently tank incoming damage, he should be able to benefit from the bonus Impact.

3) Bunny Band

You can also use the Bunny Band W-Engine to build Seth in ZZZ. The equipment will increase his max HP by 8% and provide 10% ATK when he is shielded. Seth has the ability to cast a barrier, so activating the passive shouldn’t be difficult.

Zenless Zone Zero Seth build: Skills and best team comps

Seth's skill priority in ZZZ

Unlocking Seth’s Core Skill should be a priority to access his Core Passive and additional ability in Zenless Zone Zero. He can use the skills to generate powerful shields and reduce the opponent’s Anomaly Buildup RES.

Aside from the Core skill, prioritize the following abilities for Seth's build:

  • Special Attack > Basic Attack > Chain Attack > Assist > Dodge

Seth’s gameplay is all about increasing Resolve through his Special Attack to activate an empowered Basic Attack. Hence, those are the two skills you should focus on at the beginning.


Best team comps for Seth

Here are the best team comps for Seth in ZZZ:

  • Seth + Jane Doe + Grace
  • Seth + Zhu Yuan + Qingyi
  • Seth + Soldier 11 + Qingyi
  • Seth + Nekomata + Anby
  • Seth + Nichole + Anby

Ideally, you would want to use Seth with Jane Doe and Grace, since this squad has the highest damage potential in the game. In a free-to-play team, you can rely on Anby and Nichole for consistent performance.
