Here is everything to know about the best Soukaku build in ZZZ, including the ideal W-Engine and Drive Discs for the Ice-Attribute Agent.

What is the best ZZZ Soukaku build? Section 6’s Ice-Attribute Support Agent can be quite a heavy hitter with its Slash-fighting style to boot. Altogether, the best loadout for the Oni-looking Agent hones in on those strengths including her Support capabilities. Capable of inflicting large amounts of damage, she can also quickly build up Ice-type Anomaly to inflict Freeze and Frostbite effects.

An A-rank character amongst those unlockable in Zenless Zone Zero, Soukaku is one of the easier Ice-type Agents to unlock in MiHoYo’s urban sci-fi entry into the gacha games genre. Whether you’re after creating an ultimate attacker or one of the winning ZZZ team comps, you’ll have all you need with this best Soukaku build guide.

The best ZZZ Soukaku build

Soukaku is a heavy hitter who deals out large amounts of damage and Ice-Anomaly simultaneously, making a build that buffs her ATK and Ice DMG the best way to utilize her expertise. If you have other Ice-Attribute Agents like Ellen and Lyacon on your team, Soukaku’s Group Set Meal ability unleashes her full potential even more so by increasing Ice DMG for the entire squad.

The best Zenless Zone Zero Soukaku build is:

  • W-Engine:
    • Bashful Engine (A-Rank)
  • Drive Discs:
    • Polar Metal (four-piece set)
    • Freedom Blues (two-piece set)

The best Soukaku build in ZZZ including the W-Engine & Drive Discs

Best Soukaku W-Engine

W-Engine Effects
Bashful Demon Boosts Ice DMG by 15%, increases squad members’ ATK by 2% for 12 seconds following EX Special Attacks, stackable up to four times. Passive effects from W-Engines of the same name don’t stack.
[Reverb] Mark III Increases squad members ATK by 12% for 10 seconds following Chain Attacks or Ultimates. Passive effects from W-Engines of the same don’t stack.

Being her signature weapon, Bashful Demon is the only W-Engine any first-rate Soukaku build should have – offering the best of both worlds with both an Ice DMG boost and team ATK buff in one package.

However, this can be quite tough to pull within the game’s Signal Search gacha system without luck. With that, the easily pullable B-rank Reverb Mark III makes an ideal substitute in the meantime – offering a strong 12% ATK buff for squad members.

Best ZZZ Soukaku Drive Discs

Drive Disc Effects
Polar Metal (4-piece) Boosts Ice DMG by 10% (2-piece effect). Basic Attack and Dash Attack Damage increased by 20% – increased by another 20% for 12 seconds when a squad member inflicts Freeze or Shatter.
Freedom Blues (2-piece) Increases Anomaly Proficiency by 30.

Polar Metal’s effects make it seem like the Drive Disc made for Soukaku – increasing Ice, Basic, and Dash Attack damage before being boosted more by Freeze and Shatter when it’s built up. If you have Lyacon and/or Ellen in your squad to capitalize on this as well, Polar Metal will make your Soukaku build an additional force of nature.

Enhancing the damage made by these Attribute Anomaly effects through added Anomaly Proficiency, Freedom Blues gives that extra boost to make Soukaku’s Ice-type prowess as deadly as her strength. To further make the most of each Drive Disc though, be sure to check its Base and Random Stats for added ATK, CRIT Rate, and PEN (Penetrative Damage) to make Soukaku even more of a juggernaut on the battlefield.
