New Characters：Vivian，Hugo
In Version 1.7, the most anticipated part is undoubtedly the two new members of the Mockingbird - Vivian and Hugo. In fact, clues about these two characters were planted as early as the "Wish-Fulfilling Glorious Day" event in Version 1.5. Let's take a look at their details.
Vivian
Basic Information
Rarity: S-rank Attribute: Ether Specialty: Anomaly
Story Setting
Vivian is a mysterious girl with purple hair, often seen carrying an umbrella. Judging by her pointed ears and red eyes, she is most likely of the same kind as Hugo—a vampire.
She behaves gracefully, and the umbrella she holds seems to have the word "VIVIAN" written on it. From her conversations with others, it's not hard to tell that she is also a big fan of "Phaeton." This setting adds a bit of cuteness and contrast to her image.
Vivian Gameplay
Vivian is a must-pull character for Anomaly-focused teams. Based on her skill design, she functions primarily as an off-field character, similar to Bernice, executing her skill rotation before switching out to deal damage from the background.
Her Core mechanics have two key aspects worth noting:
- Vivian's self-stacked enhancement effects can be detonated by the frontline character's EX-special ability, triggering a [Bloom Attack]. When the Bloom Attack hits an enemy affected by a Anomaly status, additional damage calculation will be applied.
- Vivian can also inflict the [Poisoned] status on enemies, causing them to take Ether damage every 0.5 seconds. This damage can trigger elemental Anomaly effects. The [Poisoned] status ends when the target is no longer affected by any elemental Anomaly.
Please note: The above information is translated from leaked Chinese sources and may differ from the final version. Stay tuned to LDShop for updates on Vivian's kit, build guides, and more.
Hugo
Basic Information
Rarity: S-rank Attribute: Ice Specialty: Attack
Story Setting
Hugo, this blond young man, has a unique appearance. With a single red eye and pointed ears, he looks exactly like a vampire.
In Lycaon's agent story, we learned that he and Lycaon were once old friends, having a close relationship and often joking with each other. However, now they have gone their separate ways, and Hugo calls Lycaon a "traitor." There must be an unknown story behind this.
In the event, Hugo used the Bumb name "Robin," which is a tribute to the famous gentleman thief Arsène Lupin. His modus operandi is also very similar to this thief. While stealing, he doesn't forget to act chivalrously, manipulating the wealthy in New Eridu at will. He has quite an influence in the city and even gained a group of fans.
Hugo Gameplay
Hugo is a Ice-Attack Agent, marking the third Ice Main DPS released by Zenless Zone Zero in a short timeframe. This inherently suggests Hugo's mechanics and playstyle will diverge from the previous two Cryo carries.
- Ellen Joe maintains smooth damage output with limited burst options, ideal for enemies with short Stun windows.
- Hoshimi Miyabi specializes in Anomaly Disorder sustained burst damage through anomaly stacking.
Hugo is speculated to be a Stun Burst Specialist, excelling against enemies with extended Stun durations.
Our upcoming Hugo Kit Analysis will provide a comprehensive breakdown of his skill mechanics and rotations. Stay tuned to LDShop and it can also offer you discounted Monochromes top up so you can enjoy the 1.7 version at the best price!
Rerun Characters: Jane, Lighter
According to leaks, there's a high probability that Jane and Lighter will be rerun.
Jane
Jane is an S-Rank Anomaly Physical Agent, specializing in Anomaly Effect-triggered damage. Her [Assault] attacks have a chance to CRIT, enabling devastating burst windows, while her high Dodge efficiency allows agile counterattacks during enemy onslaughts.
Based on Vivian's skills in Version 1.7, she synergizes well with Jane, on par with the Bernice & Jane combination.
Lighter
Light is an S-rank Fire Stun Agent, specializing in breaking enemy defenses while providing both Ice and Fire attribute buffs to the team.
Currently, Lighter is the best Ice-Fire Stun Breaker in Zenless Zone Zero, offering:
- Massive Ice and Fire damage amplification
- High Ice & Fire resistance reduction
- Extending the Stun duration by 3 seconds.
Lighter will be an excellent match for the newly introduced Agent Hugo in Version 1.7. If you previously missed out on this T0 Stun Breaker, don’t forget to seize this rerun opportunity!
