Lucy Guide & Best Builds

Welcome to our Lucy build guide for Zenless Zone Zero. Lucy is one of the best A-Rank Support Agents. She specialises in fighting with her Guard Boars, and as a Support Agent, she will provide an ATK buff for the squad. In our guide, we will cover everything you need to know to get the most out of your Lucy, from building the best Drive Discs and W-Engines to important stat priorities and combos.

Lucy's Best W-Engines

Listed below are Lucy's best W-Engines. While W-Engines are listed in a priority order, what is best to build on your Lucy can vary slightly depending on your team composition.

Kaboom the Cannon

Stampede Accident
When any friendly unit in the squad attacks and hits an enemy, all friendly units' ATK increases by 2.5/2.8/3.2/3.6/4% for 8s, stacking up to 4 times. The duration of each stack is calculated separately, and each friendly unit can provide 1 stack of the buff. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Weeping Cradle

Punishment
While off-field, the equipper's Energy Regen increases by 0.6/0.75/0.9/1.05/1.2/s. Attacks from the equipper increase all units' DMG against a struck target by 10/12.5/15/17.5/20% for 3 seconds. During this period, this effect is further increased by 1.7/2/2.5/3/3.3% every 0.5s, up to a maximum additional increase of 10.2/12/15/18/19.8%. Repeated triggers only refresh the duration without refreshing the DMG increase effect. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Elegant Vanity

Untold Beauty
When any squad member enters the field through a Quick Assist, Chain Attack, Defensive Assist, or Evasive Assist, the equipper gains 5/5.5/6/6.5/7 Energy. This effect can trigger once every 5s. When the equipper consumes 25 or more Energy, the DMG dealt by all squad members increases by 10/11.5/13/14.5/16%, stacking up to 2 times, and lasting 20s. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Only one instance of this effect can exist in the same squad.

Slice of Time

Say Cheese
Any squad members' Dodge Counter, EX Special Attack, Assist Attack, or Chain Attack respectively generates 20/23/26/29/32/25/28.5/32/35.5/40/30/34.5/39/43.5/48/35/40/45/50/55 more Decibels and generates 0.7/0.8/0.9/1/1.1 Energy for the equipper. This effect can trigger once every 12s. The cooldown for each type of attack is independent of others. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Unfettered Game Ball

Game Start!
Whenever the equipper's attack triggers an Attribute Counter effect, all units' CRIT Rate against the struck enemy increases by 12/13.5/15.5/17.5/20% for 12s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

[Reverb] Mark III

Booming Sound
Launching a Chain Attack or Ultimate increases all squad members' ATK by 8/9/10/11/12% for 10s. This effect can trigger once every 20s. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Best Drive Discs for Lucy

Moonlight Lullaby

2-Piece Set: Energy Regen +20%
4-Piece Set: When the equipper is a Support character and uses an EX Special Attack or Ultimate, the DMG dealt by all squad members increases by 18% for 25s. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Astral Voice

2-Piece Set: ATK +10%
4-Piece Set: Whenever any squad member enters the field using a Quick Assist, all squad members gain 1 stack of Astral, up to a maximum of 3 stacks, and lasting 15s. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Each stack of Astral increases the DMG dealt by the character entering the field using a Quick Assist by 8%. Passive effects of the same name do not stack.

Lucy's Stat Priority

When building Lucy, ATK and Energy Regeneration are the most important stats to focus on. The amount of ATK you need to build will depend on the level of your Special Skill. At level 8 you will need around 2700 ATK to get the max out of her buff, but if you max her skill out up to level 15/16, 2000 ATK will be plenty enough.

Lucy's Skill Priority

Lucy's most important skill to level is her Special skill since this is what increases her ATK buff for the whole Squad.

How to Play Lucy

Lucy is a Fire support who provides a powerful ATK buff through Cheer On! while summoning Guard Boars that continue attacking off-field. Her primary goal is to use her EX Special Attack to trigger Cheer On!, then immediately swap to the main DPS so they can benefit from the ATK boost while the boars deal passive damage.

Holding EX (Fly Ball) extends the duration of Cheer On!, allowing smoother damage rotations. Lucy should only remain on-field briefly to refresh her buff or set up boars.

During Stun windows, Lucy's Chain Attack can be used strategically. With precise timing, her Chain animation can be cancelled to allow chaining twice into the same Agent on bosses. This increases Decibel generation and can significantly boost overall damage during burst phases.

Her Ultimate further supports the team by restoring Energy across the squad.

So basically, what you want to remember is:

• Normal rotation: DPS → Lucy → Third Agent
• With Chain Cancel: DPS → Cancel → DPS again → Lucy

Lucy's Best Mindscapes

Lucy's most impactful Mindscapes are Little Boar Captain (M2) and Chaos Ball Game (M4). Little Boar Captain will trigger Lucy's Cheer On! status upon the use of Chain Attack and Ultimate. This way Lucy can enter Cheer On! and buff her allies more often. Chaos Ball Game is a useful Mindscape to aim for, as it gives an additional CRIT DMG boost to Lucy's allies when under the Cheer On! effect. M6 Mindscape is also valuable, but not 100% needed.
