Zenless Zone Zero Daily Missions
Complete Daily Quests
You want to make the most of your time in Zenless Zone Zero, so start each day by knocking out your daily quests. These tasks are quick, but they give you steady rewards that help you level up faster. Here’s a simple routine you can follow:
-
Use all your Battery Charge in the HIA Club’s Combat Simulator. This gives you upgrade materials and Inter-Knot points, which you need for leveling up your Agents and skills.
-
Log in, grab a coffee, try your luck with a scratch card, and open the video store. These errands take just a few minutes and reward you with Inter-Knot Credit, Polychrome, and upgrade materials.
-
Invite Agents on Trust Events. Pick the right dialogue options to boost their Trust Levels. This unlocks extra rewards and helps with Primer Trials.
-
Don’t forget to use your daily coffee bonus. It refills your Battery Charge, so you can spend more time in the Combat Simulator and other activities.
Tip: If you finish your daily quests early, you’ll have more time to focus on other fun stuff, like events or team building.
Weekly Tasks
Weekly missions in Zenless Zone Zero give you bigger rewards, but you need to plan ahead. Here’s how you can stay on track:
-
Complete New Eridu City Fund battle pass tasks. You can do this by running Hollow Zero missions or Routine Cleanup stages. These give you XP and extra loot.
-
Take on Notorious Hunts three times a week. These are tough boss fights, so make sure your team is ready. You’ll get Core Skill upgrade materials for your effort.
-
Finish Hollow Zero Bounty Commissions. These are weekly challenges inside Hollow Zero missions. They reward you with Polychrome and Boopons, which are super valuable.
If you keep up with your weekly tasks, you’ll see your resources and team power grow every week.
Daily Errands
Daily errands are the easiest way to get a steady flow of resources in Zenless Zone Zero. You can finish most of them in just a few minutes. Here’s what you get for doing your daily errands:
Reward Category |
Quantity |
---|---|
Inter-Knot Credit |
80 |
Polychrome |
60 |
Other Resources |
3,000 + 3 + 3 + 3 |
Completing these errands gives you 600 Inter-Knot Credit reputation, 60 Polychrome, and a handful of level-up materials for your characters, W-engines, and Bangboos. The best part? You only need to log in, drink a coffee, use a scratch card, and open the video store. These small actions add up fast and help you progress every day.
Note: Don’t skip daily errands. They’re quick, easy, and give you resources you’ll need for upgrades and pulls.
Stamina Use
Spend on High-Value Activities
You want to get the most out of your Battery Charge every day. The best way to do this is by spending stamina on activities that give you the biggest rewards. Start with the Combat Simulation. This mode helps you farm upgrade materials and level up your characters fast. If you reach level 35, shift your focus to Routine Cleanup. This activity lets you collect S-Rank Drive Discs, which can fix weak spots in your team and make your Agents much stronger.
Here’s a quick stamina plan you can follow:
-
Use stamina on Combat Simulation for character growth and materials.
-
After level 35, spend stamina on Routine Cleanup for top-tier Drive Discs.
-
Don’t forget Side Commissions. These give you extra rewards and don’t use any stamina.
-
Use Ether Battery or coffee to refill stamina when you need a boost.
Tip: Always check which activity gives you the materials you need most. This keeps your team growing every day.
Avoid Overflow
Battery Charge refills over time, but it has a cap. If you let it sit at max, you waste valuable stamina. Try to log in at least twice a day to spend your stamina before it overflows. Even if you only have a few minutes, use up your Battery Charge on high-value activities. This habit keeps your progress steady and stops you from missing out on rewards.
Action |
Result |
---|---|
Spend stamina daily |
No wasted recovery |
Use recovery items |
More farming opportunities |
Avoid max cap |
Continuous progression |
Plan Around Reset
Zenless Zone Zero resets daily. You want to plan your stamina use around this reset. Spend your Battery Charge before the reset hits so you don’t lose any recovery time. If you know you’ll be busy, use recovery items like coffee or Ether Battery to top off your stamina and spend it before the day ends.
Note: Setting a reminder for the daily reset can help you stay on track and never waste stamina. Small habits like this make a big difference over time.
Resource Farming
Agent Experience
You want your Agents to level up quickly in Zenless Zone Zero. The best way is to spend your Battery Charge on Combat Simulation. This mode gives you Agent EXP materials each time you play. Focus on this early in the game. If you run out of stamina, use coffee or Ether Batteries to keep playing. Watch for special events that give bonus EXP. These events help your team get stronger even faster.
Tip: Use your highest-level EXP materials on your main team. This saves resources and helps you beat harder stages.
Dennies
Dennies are the main money you need for upgrades and gear. You can get Dennies in many ways:
-
Play Combat Simulation, especially Bounty Specialization. You get about 22,500 Dennies for every 20 Battery Charge.
-
Finish daily and weekly errands. These give you 3,000 Dennies each day and 7,000 more each week.
-
Run the Video Store to earn Dennies over time.
-
Level up your New Eridu City Fund for extra Dennies.
-
Complete Trial Rewards, Commissions, and Inter-Knot Level tasks for more cash.
-
Try Hollow Zero speedruns for fast Dennies.
-
Do VR Device Training Missions and Mewmew’s missions for even more Dennies.
Note: Spend your Dennies carefully. Upgrade your main Agents and gear first.
Polychrome
Polychrome is the premium currency for pulls and special items. You get Polychrome from many places, but only a little each day. Daily errands, achievements, story progress, and events all give you Polychrome. To get the most, finish your daily and weekly tasks and join every event.
Here’s a quick look at where you can get Polychrome:
Source |
Estimated Polychrome Amount |
---|---|
Daily + Weekly Tasks (40 Days) |
2,760 |
Login Rewards |
3,200 |
Main Event + Sub-Events |
3,000 |
Hollow Zero Update |
2,100 |
Achievements |
5+ |
Arcade |
350+ |

Tip: Save your Polychrome for banners you really want. This helps you get the best Agents without wasting currency.
Team Building
Focus on One Team
It can be tempting to level up every Agent you get, but this will slow you down a lot. At the start of Zenless Zone Zero, pick three Agents and use them most of the time. If you focus on one team, you save resources and move forward faster. Upgrading just three characters makes them stronger and helps you win more battles.
-
Upgrade your main team first.
-
Level up your main DPS before others. This gives your team more power.
-
Don’t use your resources on too many Agents. After level 30, upgrades cost a lot.
-
Make a balanced team. Use different classes and elements for better teamwork.
Tip: A team with good synergy can finish missions faster and beat harder enemies.
Upgrade Wisely
Not every upgrade is worth the same. Focus on upgrades that help your team the most. Try to use Agents from the same faction for extra skills and better teamwork. For example, Cunning Hares give more critical hits, which helps damage dealers.
Elements are important too. Ice and Electric teams can freeze or shock enemies, making fights easier. Some Agents, like Miyabi, are great at single-target DPS and work well with anomaly teams. Soukaku is good for Electric teams, and Miyabi is strong for Ice teams. Upgrading these Agents and their Cinema II skills can make your team much stronger.
Upgrade Priority |
Benefit |
---|---|
Cinema II for Miyabi |
Big boost to damage and speed |
Cinema II for Anby |
More follow-up attacks and higher crit rate |
Cinema II for Hugo |
Double burst and defense ignore |
Avoid Over-Spending
You can run out of resources fast if you try to upgrade every Agent. Stick with your main team until you have extra materials. Don’t rush to level up every new Agent you get. Save your Dennies and upgrade items for the Agents you use the most.
-
Put your resources into a strong trio with good synergy.
-
Wait to upgrade side characters until your main team is strong.
-
Save rare materials for big upgrades, like Cinema II.
Note: Planning ahead keeps your team strong and saves your resources. You’ll be glad you did when you face hard missions.
Coff Cafe Buffs
Activate Daily Buffs
You should never skip your daily visit to the Coff Cafe. This spot gives you a big advantage every day. When you grab your coffee, you get 60 Battery Charge right away. That means you can jump into more battles or missions without waiting for your stamina to refill. You also get a special buff that doubles the drop rate for a certain resource in Combat Simulation. This boost only works for one enemy card in your lineup, so you need to pick the right one for what you want to farm.
The coffee menu changes each day. Some days you get more Agent EXP, other days you get extra Dennies or upgrade materials. You can check the menu before you start your runs. If you plan ahead, you can match your farming to the day’s bonus and get the most out of your time.
Tip: Always claim your coffee before spending your stamina. This way, you never miss out on the daily buff.
Optimize Farming
You want to make every drop of stamina count. The Coff Cafe helps you do just that. With the extra 60 Battery Charge, you can run more Combat Simulations or Routine Cleanups. This means faster progress for your Agents and gear. The daily buff also lets you target the resource you need most. For example, if you need Agent EXP, wait for the day when the coffee boosts EXP drops.
Here’s a quick table to help you plan:
Day |
Coffee Buff Focus |
Best Resource to Farm |
---|---|---|
Monday |
Agent EXP |
Level up Agents |
Tuesday |
Dennies |
Earn more currency |
Wednesday |
Upgrade Materials |
Boost gear and skills |
... |
... |
... |
You can store extra Battery Charge from the cafe, even if you hit your normal cap. This means you never waste stamina, even if you log in late. Make the Coff Cafe your first stop every day. You’ll see your resources pile up much faster.
Note: Smart use of the Coff Cafe buff can double your farming speed. Don’t let this daily boost go to waste!
Hollow Zero & Events
Weekly Limits
You want to get the most from Hollow Zero each week. There are some limits you need to remember. You can only do 45 Shadow Crystal Data missions every week. After 45 runs, you will not get any more rewards until the week resets. Bounty Commissions also have a weekly cap. You can earn up to 8,000 Shadow Crystal Data each week. You get rewards at 2,000, 4,000, 6,000, and 8,000 Shadow Crystal Data. When you reach 8,000, you cannot get more rewards until next week. Your Investigation License Level can go up to 180. But you still only get rewards for 45 runs each week.
Here is a table to help you keep track of these limits:
Aspect |
Weekly Limit / Cap |
Notes |
---|---|---|
Shadow Crystal Data Runs |
45 runs per week |
After 45 runs, no rewards until weekly reset |
Bounty Commissions Rewards |
Up to 8,000 Shadow Crystal Data per week |
Rewards given at 2,000 / 4,000 / 6,000 / 8,000 data milestones; no rewards beyond 8,000 |
Investigation License Level |
Max Level 180 (as of Version 2.1) |
Can still level up to 45 runs per week despite Bounty Commission reward cap |

Tip: Try to finish your Hollow Zero runs before the week resets. This helps you get all your rewards.
Event Rewards
Events in Zenless Zone Zero give you special rewards you cannot get anywhere else. You can earn Polychrome, Master Tapes, Boopons, Dennies, upgrade items, and even limited cosmetics. Some events let you unlock free Agents or Bangboo companions. If you skip these events, you miss out on strong upgrades and rare characters.
Here is what you can get from events:
Reward Type |
Description & Impact on Progression |
---|---|
Polychrome |
Up to 1,200 per event; use for banner pulls and stamina refreshes. |
Master Tapes |
5–10 per event; free Agent searches for roster growth. |
Boopons |
Bangboo-themed rolls; exclusive to timed content. |
Denny |
100,000–250,000 per event; helps with tuning and upgrades. |
Upgrade Items |
W-Engine Mods, Investigator Logs, Seals, Chips; speed up Agent upgrades. |
Nameplates, profile tags, and more; only available during events. |
|
Free Agents/Bangboo |
Some events reward exclusive 4-star Agents or companions. |
Note: Always look at the event page for new tasks. You do not want to miss free pulls or rare items.
Time-Limited Content
Time-limited content goes away fast in Zenless Zone Zero. If you miss these events, you lose the rewards forever. You cannot get those special Agents, Bangboos, or cosmetics later. Missing out makes it harder to upgrade your characters and reach endgame modes like Shiyu Defense or Deadly Assault. The game’s updates help you progress, but you still need to finish events for the best rewards.
Events also give you important currencies and upgrade materials. If you skip them, you slow down your progress and fall behind other players. You should join every event and finish all tasks before they end.
Alert: Set reminders for event deadlines. Even missing a few days can mean losing rare rewards and slowing your team’s growth.
Mistakes to Avoid
Ignoring Resets
You might think missing a daily reset is no big deal, but it can really slow you down. Every day, Zenless Zone Zero gives you a fresh start with new tasks and free rewards. If you forget to log in or delay spending your stamina, you lose out on valuable resources. Many players let their stamina reach the cap and waste the chance to farm materials. Some even spend premium currency, like Films, to refresh stamina when they could just grab a free refill at the Coffee Shop.
Here are the most common mistakes with resets:
-
Wasting Films on stamina refreshes instead of saving them for character pulls.
-
Letting stamina overcap and missing out on farming opportunities.
-
Skipping the free daily stamina refill from the Coffee Shop.
Tip: Set a reminder for the daily reset. Use your stamina before it caps, and always claim your free coffee refill.
Wasting Stamina
Stamina is your ticket to progress. If you let it sit at max, you lose out on growth. Some players forget to spend stamina, while others use it on low-value activities. You want to use every bit of stamina on the best farming spots for your current needs. Always check which materials or upgrades you need most, then spend stamina there.
A quick table to help you:
Stamina Use |
Result |
---|---|
High-value farming |
Fast progression |
Low-value farming |
Slow upgrades |
Stamina overflow |
Lost resources |
Don’t waste stamina on easy missions if you need rare materials. Plan your runs and keep your stamina working for you.
Spreading Resources Thin
It’s tempting to upgrade every new agent you get, but this drains your resources fast. If you level up too many agents or W-Engines at once, you run out of upgrade materials and Dennies. This makes it hard to power up your main team and slows your progress.
-
Leveling too many agents at once drains your stash.
-
Upgrading every W-Engine wastes valuable materials.
-
Spreading resources thin leads to slow progression and weak teams.
-
Focusing on a core trio with good synergy keeps your upgrades efficient.
Stick with one strong team. Save your resources for big upgrades and future top-tier agents. You’ll see better results and have more fun in the long run.
You can make real progress by logging in every day and using your resources wisely. Daily quests give you clear goals, fun tasks, and steady rewards that help your team grow stronger. Try to keep up with login streaks, explore new challenges, and plan your team upgrades. The variety of tasks and weekly systems keep things fresh and exciting. Remember, small actions each day lead to big wins over time—stick with your routine and watch your team shine!
