Best Anton Build in Zenless Zone Zero

Anton in Zenless Zone Zero is a Electric Attack Agent from Belobog Heavy Industries and, with the right build, he can be a powerful attacker on your squad. Granted, you’ll really want to put him on a Shock team so that he can be at his maximum potential.

Here are the best W-Engines for your Anton build in Zenless Zone Zero

  • Drill Rig – Red Axis
    This is a good W-Engine that fits well with Anton’s kit. It increases his Electric DMG from Basic Attacks and Dash Attacks for a short while after he uses his EX Special Attack. 
  • The Brimstone
    This is another good W-Engine thanks to its ability to increase the wearer’s ATK after they hit the enemy.
  • Cannon Rotor
    Like The Brimstone, Cannon Rotor can increase Anton’s ATK, as well as deal additional damage when he lands a critical hit. Because you want to build Anton to have pretty high Crit Rate anyway, he should be able to land critical hits pretty often. At only 8 seconds’ cooldown time, you should be able to get that bonus DMG quite often.
  • Starlight Engine
    Starlight Engine has a very simple, but very effective ability. When Anton launches a Dodge Counter or a Quick Assist, he gains a temporary ATK bonus.
  • Lunar – Noviluna
    Lunar – Noviluna is a good W-Engine for Anton because it restores his Energy after he uses an EX Special Attack. Since you want a lot of Energy for him to use his enhanced basic, this will help him to get it back faster. As a B-rank W-Engine, it should be easier to get than the S or A ones.

Here are the best Drive Discs for Anton

  • 4-pc Thunder Metal, 2-pc Swing Jazz
    You’ll always want at least a 2-pc of Swing Jazz on Anton because he really needs that Energy Regen boost. Thunder Metal is the best set for him due to its Electric DMG boost and ATK bonus when attacking Shocked enemies. Anton works best in a Shock team, so he shouldn’t have trouble having a Shocked enemy to hit.
  • 4-pc Hormone Punk, 2-pc Swing Jazz
    Hormone Punk is also a good one for Anton because of its heavy 25% ATK increase. However, it’s important to note that this boost only lasts for 10 seconds and can only trigger once every 20 seconds.

Zenless Zone Zero is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. You always have a chance of getting Anton in the gacha.
