Review
Soldier 0 Anby, or in short S0 Anby, is our first Limited S-Rank Electric Attack Agent and makes a strong debut climbing to the top of the meta as a top tier DPS that’s not only effective but also simple & relatively easy to play!
What makes S0 Anby unique is her focus on a new mechanic and damage type Aftershock, which revolves around dealing damage via triggers instead of directly through abilities (Similar to how Burnice’s Afterburn works). To access instances of this unique damage type, Anby utilizes a fairly standard builder spender playstyle that culminates in a multi-dash attack sequence that triggers constant Aftershocks, the game plan is building and accessing these attacks as much as possible.
Outside of Aftershock, S0 Anby’s kit only contains 1 unique mechanic - a 3-staged resource called “Silver Star” which takes the form of a 3 pointed star mark Anby slowly fills out until full. It can be accessed by striking an enemy with any of the following abilities:
Chain Attack
Ultimate
Basic Attacks
Dash Attacks
Dodge Counter
Special Attack: Celestial Thunder
EX Special Attack: Sundering Bolt
Quick Assist
Assist Follow-Up
Upon landing any of these attacks, S0 Anby will immediately mark the target and accumulate varying amounts of “Silver Star” on them. Each enemy can accumulate up to 99 “Silver Star” and upon reaching the thresholds of 33, 66 and 99 “Silver Stars” an additional point of the Star will be activated - a detail important for the rest of Anby’s kit!
Anby’s “Silver Star” serves two purposes. The first being allowing the repeated use of her combo based Special Attack, “Special Attack: Azure Flash” which triggers Aftershocks and makes up for a significant amount of her total damage. The second is to activate her Core Passive and Additional ability, both of which grant her a plethora of excellent passive buffs.
Let's start with “Special Attack: Azure Flash” first, which is S0 Anby’s bread and butter. After accumulating enough “Silver Star” to reach the breakpoints of 33/66/99 (aka filling up a point of the Star), that enemy will receive 1 stack of “White Flash”. When an enemy has “White Flash” tapping the Special Attack will consume a stack to make Anby perform a rapid dash that deals minor damage but triggers a powerful Electric Aftershock. With 3 points of the Star filled (A maxed out “Silver Star”), she can perform 3 of these dashes in quick succession. Doing this is highly recommended due to the next portion of her Special Attack “Special Attack: Thunder Smite”.
Upon triggering 3 Aftershocks by consuming “White Flash” on an enemy, they’ll be struck with an additional even stronger Aftershock as a bonus. Because of this, Anby’s playstyle becomes quite simple, accumulate all 3 points of her “Silver Star” via various abilities to generate 3 “White Flash” on the enemy, then spend them by using 3 back to back “Azure Flash”.
Accumulate maximum Silver Star
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Aftershock Damage triggers

The other reason we’re accumulating “Silver Star” is of course due to S0 Anby’s Core Passive and Additional Ability mentioned earlier. Her Core Passive: Voltage Gap grants her 25% increased damage as well as a special 30% CRIT DMG multiplier to all her Aftershock damage whilst enemies are marked with her “Silver Star”. This CRIT DMG Multiplier isn’t simply a plain 30% additional CRIT DMG boost, instead it multiplies your existing CRIT DMG again! If you have 200% CRIT DMG your Aftershock CRIT DMG will be 260% (1.3 times stronger)!
S0 Anby’s Additional ability requires a Stun or Support character to activate, a very easy requirement. While in effect S0 Anby gains a free 10% CRIT RATE and boosts the entire squad's Aftershock DMG by 25% against enemies with “Silver Star” while she’s the active agent. A nice pile of free stats that can benefit other Aftershock scaling allies.
The entirety of the remainder of her kit is all extremely basic and exists solely for the purpose of generating and refreshing her “Silver Star” as quickly as possible. Seriously, it's that simple. In the interest of completeness, let's quickly cover her remaining abilities before diving into her admittedly simple combos.
Her Basic attacks are one of the main ways you’ll be generating her “Silver Star” consistently and are composed of a 5 attack combo all consisting of Electric Damage. The one thing that makes this combo a little different is her ability to repeatedly use P4 of the Basic Attack up to 5 times in quick succession, something that is almost always worth doing.
Her Dash Attack and Dodge counter are completely stock standard with the exception being that her Dodge Counter grants an abnormal amount of “Silver Star” accumulation making it one of the best ways to quickly build toward accessing her full “Azure Flash” combo. Also worth noting is that S0 Anby will immediately skip to Basic Attack P2 following a Dodge Counter. Whenever you can fit this ability in and you need “Silver Star” build-up use it!
Outside of S0 Anby’s “Azure Flash” Special Attacks, Anby also has both an EX-Special and a standard Special Attack. The standard Special Attack doesn’t do much damage or have any bonus effects and thus isn’t worth using. The EX-Special can only be accessed by pressing and holding the Special Attack and will deal considerable damage, but more importantly, immediately accumulate a maximum “Silver Star” mark (even if you had 0 accumulated beforehand). This ability allows for excellent amounts of burst for S0 Anby and allows her to use 6 “Azure Flashes” in quick succession!
Accumulate maximum Silver Star
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash

EX Special Attack: Sundering Bolt

Special Attack: Azure Flash
Her Quick Assist, Assist Follow-Up and Chain Attack are all stock standard abilities outside of the fact they help accumulate her “Silver Star”. Her Ultimate however fully accumulates her Silver Star similar to her EX-Special skill, allowing for even further combos when available!
With all that covered, let's quickly cover Anby’s rotations of which there are two: non-stun and stun. When playing S0 Anby outside of the stun window, simply make use of her standard Basic Attack sequence and Dodge Counters to accumulate fully charged “Silver Star” quickly to spend on “Azure Flashes”. 1 Dodge Counter followed by a full Basic Attack sequence is enough to fully charge a “Silver Star”.
Basic Attack: Penetrating Shock P1
Basic Attack: Penetrating Shock P2
Basic Attack: Penetrating Shock P3
Basic Attack: Penetrating Shock P4 x5
Basic Attack: Penetrating Shock P5
Dodge Counter: Ground Flash Counter
Special Attack: Azure Flash

Special Attack: Azure Flash
Anby’s Stun rotation involves accumulating all of her resources for when the enemy is stunned in order to execute as many “Azure Flashes” as possible during the window of vulnerability. The key to maximising her damage in this rotation is saving your Energy, Decibels and ensuring you have a close to fully charged “Silver Star” available before the enemy is stunned. Build up an almost full “Silver Star” Mark then execute the following combo during the stun window:
Accumulate Silver Star Mark
Chain Attack: Leaping Thunderstrike
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Ultimate: Voidstrike
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash

Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
EX Special Attack: Sundering Bolt (If you have the time & energy)
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
Special Attack: Azure Flash
For those looking to optimize the combo above, there are two things worth noting.
The first is to accurately gauge how much “Silver Star” accumulation you need before the stun window with the Chain Attack in mind. Fully accumulating a “Silver Star” Mark will waste any gained via the Chain Attack, thereby stopping just as you get enough with the Chain Attack in mind, will save you time.
The second is that, similar to Evelyn, Anby can make use of the advanced tactic Chain Cancelling to perform two Chain Attacks per boss stun window instead of one. This allows her to deal more damage and gain more “Silver Star” accumulation making the first point even more potent.
And that about covers it, S0 Anby is simple, easy to play and deals outstanding damage making her a good choice for those looking to get stuff done without the stress of overly complex rotations. With that said, she isn’t without her flaws - the Electric damage type already has a number of excellent and even free DPS, if you already enjoy their playstyles and have them built, she might not be as valuable to you.
In addition to this, S0 Anby isn’t quite as potent in AoE fights as some of her peers such as Evelyn or Miyabi are, giving them a slight edge over her in some encounters. With that said S0 Anby is certainly a powerhouse at the top of the meta at the time of her release and an agent to consider for those she appeals to.
Ratings
This tier list assesses characters based on their combat potential in Zenless Zone Zero’s current most demanding content, Shiyu Defense (SD). SD is a mode similar to Genshin Impact’s Spiral Abyss or Honkai Star Rail’s Memory of Chaos and requires multiple teams, Disk Drives and good W-Engines. This mode offers a reasonable mix of Boss encounters (single target) and Elite packs (2-3 targets), allowing multiple characters to find a niche but in the end, there is a bias toward single target focused characters at the top-end and tier list ratings will reflect that.
Please keep in mind Zenless Zone Zero is a skill-based game and each character has a different playstyle, difficulty level and even special tricks and combos. Zenless Zone Zero is also a team based game and it's only by combining both these factors to the highest level a character can reach optimal performance.

CRIT DMG is increased by 30/34.5/39/43.5/48%. When the equipper lands a hit with a Basic Attack, Special Attack, or Aftershock, they gain 1 stack of a buff. Each stack increases the equipper's CRIT DMG by an additional 10/11.5/13/14.5/16%, stacking up to 3 times. The effect lasts for 30s, with each stack's duration calculated separately, and can only be triggered once per use of a skill. With all 3 stacks, the equipper's Electric DMG increases by 20/23/26/29/32%.
Base ATK (Lv 60):713
Crit DMG (Lv 60):48%
S0 Anby's own Signature Engine and her clear best choice. Grants an obscene amount CRIT DMG between its passive and conditional effects that S0 Anby can keep active at all times. Also offers Anby some additional Electric DMG% as a bonus.
86.63%
CRIT DMG increases by 50/57.5/65/72.5/80%. When the equipper enters the battlefield, or activates a Chain Attack or Ultimate, they gain 1 stack of Heartstring. Each stack of Heartstring allows the equipper's Chain Attack and Ultimate to ignore 12.5/14.5/16.5/18.5/20% of the target's Fire RES, stacking up to 2 times and lasting 30s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.
Base ATK (Lv 60):713
Crit Rate (Lv 60):24%
Evelyn's Signature Engine and solid choice for S0 Anby, thanks to its generic passive CRIT RATE and CRIT DMG - S0 Anby can not take advantage of its in Combat effect though.
83.80%
CRIT Rate increases by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16%. Dash Attack Electric DMG increases by 40/46/52/58/64%. When any squad member applies an Attribute Anomaly or Stuns an enemy, the equipper's CRIT Rate increases by an additional 10/11.5/13/14.5/16% for 15s.
Base ATK (Lv 60):713
Crit Damage (Lv 60):48%
Like Heartstring Notcturne it's a good generic option for S0 Anby, thanks to its close to permanent uptime 20% CRIT RATE buff and always active 45% CRIT DMG. S0 Anby can theoretically use the bonus Electric Dash DMG% but it's not relevant for her main combos.
81.01%
Increases CRIT Rate by 15%. Launching an EX Special Attack grants the equipper 8 Charge stacks, up to a maximum of 8 stacks. Whenever the equipper's Basic Attack deals Ether DMG, consumes a Charge stack and increases the skill's DMG by 35%.
Base ATK (Lv 60):713
Crit Damage (Lv 60):48%
Similar to the two engines above, Riot Suppressor provides powerful generic passive CRIT bonuses but at a lesser amount. It goes without saying that S0 Anby sadly has no use for this engines Combat ability.
78.01%
When an EX Special Attack or Chain Attack hits an enemy, the equipper's ATK increases by 6/6.9/7.8/8.7/9.6% for 8s. While the target is under an Attribute Anomaly, this effect is increased by an additional 6/6.9/7.8/8.7/9.6%.
Base ATK (Lv 60):594
Crit Rate (Lv 60):20%
Reasonable option for CRIT scaling agents playing in teams capable of applying Anomaly semi-consistently to trigger and maintain its secondary bonus effect a decent amount of the time. S0 Anby's best F2P option, assuming you can achieve close to 100% uptime on its conditional effects - something that is possible but requires a bit of work. In the event you can't its performance will drop.
77.89%
Launching a Dodge Counter or Quick Assist increases the equipper's ATK by 12/13.8/15.6/17.4/19.2% for 12s.
Base ATK (Lv 60):594
Attack (Lv 60):25%
A solid all-around Free To Play accessible option for all Attack Agents. Grants 25% unconditional Standard Attack and a further 19.2% (At S5) Combat Attack buff after performing a Dodge Counter or Quick Assist lasting 12 seconds. This buff is reasonably easy for all Attack Agents to achieve in both their standard and burst rotations, assuming a Support character is present on the team. While this Engine is a solid and accessible choice for S0 Anby, its Combat Attack buff will require extra work during S0 Anby's Burst combo as she doesn't perform any Dodge Counters or Quick Assists naturally during her Stun window attack sequences. We've calculated this engine with 100% uptime - if you can't achieve this it's performance will drop.
74.92%
Upon hitting an enemy with a Basic Attack, Dash Attack, or Dodge Counter, the equipper's ATK increases by 3.5/4.4/5.2/6/7% for 8s, stacking up to 8 times. This effect can trigger once every 0.5s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
Base ATK (Lv 60):684
Attack (Lv 60):30%
Soldier 11's Signature W-Engine and a good choice for any character with a focus on using a lot of Basic Attacks or even just a few long lasting ones. The catch is each buff stack has its own duration and only 1 buff can be gained every 0.5 seconds, making maintaining max stacks of this buff require constant Basic Attacks. Usually a strong accessible option for most Combat characters but less so for S0 Anby, due to the short duration of its buffs that can only be acquired via Basic Atk's (of which Anby performs none of during her Burst Damage combo). Because of this, this engine often loses all its stacks when S0 Anby needs them most and she has little opportunity to replenish them without interfering with her usual playstyle.

Upon hitting an enemy with an Aftershock or Dash Attack, if the DMG dealt aligns with the equipper's attribute, the equipper gains 1 stack of a buff effect, at most once per use of a skill. For each stack, the equipper's ATK increases by 4%, and CRIT Rate increases by 4%. The effect can stack up to 3 times and lasts for 15s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.
Aftershock and Dash Attack focused Disc Drive set that grants a whopping 15% DMG to Aftershock/Dash ATKs, 12% CRIT RATE and 12% Combat ATK when fully stacked. S0 Anby can easily fully stack this set and keep it permanently active with no trouble, making it her best Disc Drive set.

As long as an enemy in combat is Shocked, the equipper's ATK is increased by 28%.
A solid alternative for S0 Anby but with the downside of needing to maintain Shock on the enemy throughout the majority of the fight - something that isn't always easy to do. A competitive option if you can manage Shocks, but the performance drops dramatically in teams that cannot. Calculations assume 60% Uptime on Thunder Metal's Combat ATK buff - higher uptimes will improve performance, lower will reduce it.

Another alternative to 4P Shadow Harmony that comes with some distinct challenges for S0 Anby compared to her peers. Woodpecker Electro is usually a solid generic choice for most characters and can reliably sit around 2 stacks. S0 Anby can do this outside of the stun window but her main burst combo doesn't include Basic Attacks or Dodge Counters meaning this set will lose some value when she needs it most. Calculations assume roughly 1.5 Stacks on average throughout S0 Anby's rotation.

CRIT DMG: 160% - 200%+ (before Core Passive)
CRIT is a more valuable stat for S0 Anby compared to other characters, due to the additional scaling granted by her Core Passive. The 30% CRIT DMG multiplier to Aftershock damage, makes stacking both CRIT related stats even more of a priority.
Pulchra amplifies all Aftershock damage of which S0 Anby deals a considerable amount. Pulchra also takes up very little field time while delivering a respectable amount of Daze, thanks to her Hunters Gait mechanic. This field time can be used by Anby to accumulate resources for her Burst or execute her non-Burst attack rotations - both of which are useful.
As with most characters in the game mit should be no surprise that S0 Anby synergises excellently with the two generic support power houses - Astra Yao and Caesar. Both offer tremendous damage amplification while taking up very little field time, allowing Anby to deal considerably more damage and also not impeding her ability to act as she wishes on the field.
Teams
If a column has multiple characters, the bigger one is the priority choice for the team while the smaller ones are alternatives. If they are the same size, either of them can be used.
Don't use the damage output calculations as an indication on who is worth pulling or investing as those are just simulations and in day-to-day gameplay there's a lot variables and also the skill of the player is important. As usual, don't compare the numbers between characters.
About Mindscapes:
S0 Anby's M2 allows her to perform 6 additional Azure Flash dashes on the combo following her Ultimate for a total of 9. This is a DPS increase but will take up a portion of the Stun Timer, limiting what else S0 Anby can do in this space. For example she cannot fit the additional 6 dashes plus a 2nd EX special and Azure Flash combo all in one stun window.
