Review
Deals a large amount of her total damage while performing her Charged Spinning EX attack which applies devastating amounts of Assault but also allows Piper to move while casting.
Can quickly apply the Flinched state to enemies thanks to her fast Physical Anomaly buildup increasing Daze the afflicted target takes by 10%.
After performing a fully channeled EX spin and accumulating 20 stacks of her Power buff, grants the entire squad an 18% Damage % buff boosting her own and other character's output.
Spin to Win!
Has incredibly limited potential teammates she shares a Faction or Elemental synergy with outside of other Physical DPS who she’ll need to compete with on-field time for on.
Competes with many other A-Rank Physical DPS.

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.

The W-Engines are listed in order of priority. Sometimes the percentages appearing near them won't reflect their performance as pure damage or Stun output isn't the only thing we're looking at - the utility of the W-Engine might be more important than the calculations imply.
100.00%
When EX Special Attack hits an enemy, one of three possible effects is randomly triggered for 5 seconds. This effect can trigger once every 0.3s. The same types of effects cannot stack. Repeated triggers reset the duration allowing several effects to be active at once:
increases the equipper's ATK by 8/9.2/10.4/11.6/12.8%,
increases the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency by 40/46/52/58/64,
increases the equipper's Anomaly Buildup Rate by 25/28/32/36/40%.
94.97%
Increases ATK by 12/15/18/21/24%. When using a Special Attack or EX Special Attack, the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency is increased by 25/31/37/43/50 for 8s, stacking up to 3 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
88.68%
Whenever a squad member inflicts an Attribute Anomaly on an enemy, the equipper gains a buff that increases Anomaly Proficiency by 30/34/38/42/46, stacking up to 4 times. This effect expires when the target recovers from Stun or is defeated. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
96.14%
100% uptimeWhen there are enemies inflicted with Attribute Anomaly on the field, the equipper's ATK increases by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16% and they deal an additional 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% more DMG to the target.
83.46%
0% uptimeWhen there are enemies inflicted with Attribute Anomaly on the field, the equipper's ATK increases by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16% and they deal an additional 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% more DMG to the target.
83.80%
For every 10 Energy consumed, the equipper gains a buff that increases ATK by 2.5/2.8/3.2/3.6/4% for 10s, stacking up to 10 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
100%
Competitive option for direct and Anomaly-based Physical damage dealers granting 10% permanent Physical DMG% from the 2-PC and 35% increased DMG against enemies inflicted by Assault by any party member for 12 seconds. DMG% bonus against enemies will be up the majority of most fights against boss-type enemies thanks to its long duration and ability to trigger from any team member allowing a Physical based Bangboo/teammate to assist with uptime via their own Assaults.
Best combined with your choice of 2-PC Set:
Substats: Anomaly Proficiency > ATK% > PEN = ATK
ATK: 2100-2700+
HP: 9000+
DEF: 800+
Anomaly Mastery: 116 - 150+
Anomaly Proficiency: 350 - 450+

Rotation & Teams
Due to the nature of Piper’s kit, she wants to spend some time on-field in order to execute her fully charged EX Spinning Slash, meaning she ideally doesn’t want to compete with other damage dealers who would soak up the time she needs. This requirement makes things difficult for Piper as the only other Physical characters she can pair with to activate her Additional Ability are all damage dealers and there is only one other character sharing the same factions as her.
Fortunately, the character sharing a faction with her is Lucy who just so happens to be an incredibly good support for Piper, solving her biggest issue of a lack of teammates. Lucy isn’t just there to enable Piper’s Additional Ability though - she also grants Piper a flat 600 ATK boost which she can keep active close to permanently. Lucy also has a great signature W-Engine that boosts the whole teams combat ATK% multiplier, boosting Piper’s damage even further. Both units work well together and cover each others Additional Ability requirements allowing the last team member to be incredibly flexible.
Alternative primary Anomaly/Disorder DPS teammate for Burnice who can output excellent Physical Anomaly application during her EX-Special attack, triggering some impressive Disorders when aligned correctly. However, she has far more limited options compared to Jane outside of her main EX combo to fill field time, making her somewhat energy hungry but with careful planning she still forms a powerful synergy with the correct third supporting team mate.
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.
Stun Disorder Team
Calculations
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.
Important!
Rotation time: 9.77s for Burst.
Here are the rotations used in the calculations.
As an Anomaly character Piper is not anywhere near as reliant on her Ultimate as Attack characters making it an optional addition if you see fit, it will increase her damage but is not essential. Piper can also make use of her rotation equally as well outside of the stun burst window something that can be especially relevant when playing her in teams without stun characters, the only damage related cost of this is the sacrifice of the stun damage multiplier.
Burst rotation (During Stun)
- Chain Attack: Buckle Up
- Special Attack: Tire Spin (Full Channel Until EX Starts)
- EX Special Attack: Engine Spin (Full Channel)
- EX Special Attack: Really Heavy
And here are the W-Engines and Disk Drives used in the calculations.
Increases ATK by 12/15/18/21/24%. When using a Special Attack or EX Special Attack, the equipper's Anomaly Proficiency is increased by 25/31/37/43/50 for 8s, stacking up to 3 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.
Substats: ATK (42%), Anomaly Proficiency (126), PEN (54)
