Zenless Zone Zero Nicole build, w-engine, and teams

Our Zenless Zone Zero Nicole build helps you harness the power of this A-rank character with a strike attack style that uses the ether element. She's a support character who can buff the team with ease and is also a member of the Cunning Hares faction along with Anby, Billy, and Nekomataa.

If you're new to the game, we recommend you check out our Zenless Zone Zero tier list to find out which Zenless Zone Zero character we think is best, and our Zenless Zone Zero codes for some in-game freebies.

What are the best teams for Nicole in Zenless Zone Zero?

Nicole is an excellent support for a wide range of team comps. Just because she's a day-one, free, A-rank character doesn't mean she can't pull her weight. Using her alongside Zhu Yuan, Harumasa, Nangong Yu, or Anby makes for an excellent pairing, but you can use her in almost any team that requires a bit of debuffing.

Here are some of the best team options for Nicole:

What are the best W-engines for Nicole?

The best W-engine for Nicole is the A-rank called The Vault. This is her signature W-engine. You can easily get this on the banner or purchase it from the Gadget Store on Sixth Street. You can also use the Weeping Cradle from the standard banner, or the Unfettered Game Ball from the battle pass rewards.

• The Vault - A-rank
• Weeping Cradle - standard S-rank
• Unfettered Game Ball - battle pass A-rank
