Zenless Zone Zero’s Rina, also known by her full name Alexandrina Sebastine, is a strong electric unit and a member of Victoria Housekeeping Co. She has a very unique design and move set, so let’s take a look at her skills, best W-Engines, drive discs, and more.
While you’re here, be sure to check out the current Zenless Zone Zero banner to see who’s available, and grab any Zenless Zone Zero codes for some free master tapes. We also have a Zenless Zone Zero tier list to help you pick which characters to build.
Here’s everything you need to know about Zenless Zone Zero’s Rina.
What’s the best Rina build?
Rina is a very interesting S-rank character who dishes out electric and strike damage with a support specialty. Instead of walking, she floats around the field and has two bangboos she uses to attack targets. Her attacks also have a very wide reach, so you can generally keep her out of danger and escape sticky situations quickly, all while still dishing out heaps of damage.
We recommend her signature W-Engine, the Weeping Cradle, to compliment her kit. She works best with a four-piece set of Thunder Metal drive discs and a two-piece set of Woodpecker Electro, with crit, attack, and electric damage bonus stats.
| Best W-Engine | Weeping Cradle |
| Best drive discs | Four-piece – thunder metal Two-piece – woodpecker electro |
| Main stats | Crit rate > crit damage > attack > electric damage |
| Sub-stats | Crit rate > crit damage > pen ratio > attack |
Due to her additional ability, Rina does well on a squad with at least one other electric character and/or one other member of Victoria Housekeeping. She can fill a DPS or sub-DPS role, so her team comps look to be quite flexible, though keep in mind that electric users like Zenless Zone Zero’s Anton or Zenless Zone Zero’s Anby will get the benefits.
What are the best W-engines for Rina?
Rina, as an S-rank character, has her own signature W-Engine – the Weeping Cradle. This is her best-in-slot weapon and fits perfectly with her kit. In terms of alternatives – as we all know what it’s like trying to get five-star weapons, Kaboom the Cannon can provide a team-wide buff, which is always very helpful.
| W-engine | Effect |
| Weeping Cradle (S-rank) | Increases Rina’s off-field energy regeneration. Her attacks enhance the squad’s damage against a struck target for three seconds. During this time, this effect increases every 0.5 seconds. Repeated triggers refresh the duration, and passive effects of the same name do not stack |
| Kaboom the Cannon (A-rank) | Increases all squad members’ attack for eight seconds when any squad member attacks and hits an enemy, stacking up to four times. The duration of each stack calculates separately and every unit provides one stack |
| Unfettered Game Ball (A-rank) | Whenever Rina’s attack trigger an attribute counter, all squad member’s crit rate against struck enemies increases by 12% for 12 seconds |
| Slice of time (A-Rank) | Any squad members’ dodge counter, EX special attack, assist, or chain attack gains at least 20 more decibels, and more energy, for Rina. This can trigger once every 12 seconds |
What are the best drive discs for Rina?
The best drive discs you can equip Rina with is a four-piece set of Thunder Metal to gain the electric damage buff and increase her attack, paired with a two-piece set of Woodpecker Electro to increase her crit rate.
Now, finding good drive discs may be tricky given the RNG of sub-stats, so you can opt for a four-piece set of Freedom Blues with a two-piece set of Thunder Metal, or mix all three sets up to get three two-piece set bonuses.
| Drive disc set | Effect |
| Thunder Metal | Two equipped: Increases electric damage by 10% Four equipped: Increases Rina’s attack by 28% as long as an enemy target in battle is in the shocked state |
| Woodpecker Electro | Two equipped: Increases crit rate by 8% Four equipped: Triggering a critical hit with a basic attack, dodge counter, or EX special attack increases Rina’s attack by 9% for six seconds. The buff for different skills calculates separately |
| Freedom Blues | Two equipped: Increases anomaly proficiency by 30 Four equipped: When an EX special attack hits an enemy, it reduces the target’s anomaly buildup resistance to electric by 20%, lasting eight seconds. This does not stack with other electric resistances |
| Swing Jazz | Two equipped: Increases energy regeneration by 20% Four equipped: Launching a chain attack or ultimate increases all squad members’ damage by 15% for 12 seconds |
