The bestQingyi buildinZenless Zone Zerois all about buffing the cyborg cop’s impact so she can stun enemies more easily and gain attack through her additional ability. Qingyi may seem like a complicated character, but as with any other stun agent, her role is actually quite simple; smack around enemies until they stop moving so your primary DPS can go to town.

I’ll explain her best setup in terms of W-Engines and Drive Discs and run through her important stats, plus lower down I’ll briefly list what you need to level her up.

Qingyi is an electric stun character who has a basic attack that lets her hit enemies continuously with electric damage. As she does, she builds the Flash Connect resource in the top left. When she hits 75, she’s able to use her enhanced basic attack, Enchanted Moonlit Blossoms, which applies a stun damage multiplier to enemies via her core passive. Qingyi’s EX special attack also deals a big chunk of damage and daze. So, in building her, you’ll mainly be looking to buff her impact for those all-important stuns.

The best Drive Discs for Qingyi are pretty standard for a stun character; four pieces ofShockstar Discobuff her impact and help her apply more daze to enemies for frequent stuns, while two-pieces ofSwing Jazzboost energy regen so she can use her skill more. You could swap Swing Jazz in favour ofWoodpecker Electroif you want to build her towards crits, but since her main focus is stunning as opposed to primary DPS, you may benefit from using her skill more instead.

In terms of base stats on the Drive Discs, I recommend:

The fourth Drive Disc doesn’t have any primary stats that are especially vital for Qingyi, so you could go either crit rate–if you’ve got a reasonable amount of crit damage/crit care through other sources–or anomaly proficiency, to increase the damage she deals when she applies shock with all her electric damage. In the fifth slot, I recommend either electric damage bonus or energy regen if you’re using a W-Engine like Steam Oven which relies on that stat.

For substats, impact is key for the reason mentioned above. The maximum attack bonus is 600, meaning you don’t want her impact to be over 220, since there will be no additional benefit. Energy regen is also important so you can use her EX special attack lots, and then crit rate and crit damage if you can build it to a reasonable level, or anomaly proficiency if you’d prefer to enhance any shock she deals.

Here’s what you’ll need to get Qingyi levelled in Zenless Zone Zero:

You can get Stun Certification Seals through the Combat Simulation activity. Pick Agent Promotion and then Stun Drill for Qingyi. Investigator Logs also come from the same place, you just need to choose Basic Material and then Investigation Specialization instead.

It’s worth noting that, similar to previous miHoYo games, you’ll need to raise your Inter-Knot reputation in order to gain access to higher character levels. Once you progress far enough, you’ll also be able to change what enemies you fight in Combat Simulation to create a custom reward set that’ll get you exactly what you need.
