Orphie Build Guide: Skill Priority, W-Engines, Discs& Teams | Zenless Zone Zero

Hi, Proxies!

Looking for the best Orphie build in Zenless Zone Zero? LDShop has you covered! This guide breaks down Orphie & Magus’s top W-Engines, Drive Discs, skill priorities, team comps, and more. Orphie may be a Fire Attack Agent, but she shines as a sub-DPS in Follow-up Attack teams—making her the perfect new addition if you’re building a powerful FUA squad. Let’s dive in and unlock her full potential!

 

Orphie & Magus Overview

Rarity: S-Rank | Specialty: Attack | Attribute: Fire 

Orphie & Magus is a Fire-element, Pierce-damage, Attack agent who thrives on fast, repeated strikes. Her kit revolves around building and spending Bottled Heat to unleash powerful EX skills, with many of her attacks—Basic, EX, Chain, and Ultimate—tagged as Aftershock damage, making them the true engine of her DPS output.

Her Core Passive boosts Crit Rate and Aftershock multipliers, while also letting her trigger enhanced EX skills even when she’s off-field, provided Energy and cooldown conditions are met. Beyond her own numbers, she buffs the team: landing her Heat Charge laser grants all allies Zeroed In, a temporary ATK bonus that scales further with Energy Regeneration.

The synergy deepens in team play, since allies can extend Zeroed In’s duration by triggering Aftershocks themselves. This makes Orphie not only a self-sufficient crit powerhouse but also an enabler who rewards coordinated Aftershock-heavy squads with sustained damage buffs.

So, for who want to pull Orphie & Magus, LDShop gives you a Orphie Pre-Farm Materials Guide.

 

Orphie & Magus Skill Priority

Orphie & Magus is an Fire-focused sub-DPS. Her skills are treated as Follow-up Attacks. Energy is converted into ATK buff. Grants ATK up and DEF down.

 

Skill	Priority
Special Attack	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Top)	Primary Aftershock trigger and biggest consistent damage source.
Core Skill	⭐⭐⭐⭐ (High)	Boosts Aftershock multipliers and provides strong ATK buff.
Chain Attack	⭐⭐⭐⭐ (High)	Extra Aftershock procs tied to Ultimate timing.
Assist	⭐⭐⭐ （Medium）	Some utility, but low damage return compared to main kit.
Basic Attack	⭐⭐ （Low）	Basic Attack contributes little to her off-field kit.
Dodge	⭐ （Low）	Dodge is mainly on-field survival (less relevant when Orphie’s played off-field)

Orphie & Magus W-Engines

As a Fire sub-DPS in FUA Team, Orphie & Magus's optimal W-Engines are those focused on CRIT Rate, CRIT Damage, and Fire Damage Boost sub-stats.

Signature W-Engine

Bellicose Blaze

Rarity: S-Rank | Base ATK: 713 | HP: 60%

Flame-Devouring Choir

Increases CRIT Rate by 20%/23%/26%/29%/32%. When the equipper triggers an Aftershock that deals Fire DMG, their attacks ignore 15%/17.2%/19.5%/21.7%/24% of the target's DEF for 8s. Can stack once every 3s, up to 2 stacks. Repeated triggers reset the duration.

 

Why it Suits Orphie

Bellicose raises Crit Rate and makes attacks ignore enemy DEF when an Aftershock deals Fire damage. Orphie’s kit spawns repeated Fire Aftershocks (Corrosive Flash / EX attacks), so she reliably procs DEF-ignore stacks and turns her multi-hit lasers into nastier, crit-heavy shredders.

 

Alternatives

S-Rank	How It Works
Severed Innocence	Severed pumps base Crit DMG and grants extra Crit-DMG stacks on Basic/Special/Aftershock hits, stacking into huge crit windows. Orphie’s multi-hit Basic and frequent Aftershocks let her ramp stacks fast, converting laser spam into explosive crit bursts (the Electric boost is secondary for her).
Heartstring Nocturne	Heartstring massively boosts Crit DMG and gives stacks on entering combat or using a Chain Attack/Ultimate that let those skills ignore enemy Fire RES. Orphie’s EX/entry combos reliably trigger those stacks, so this engine helps smash Fire-resistant foes and supercharge her chain/EX burst windows.

 

A-Rank	How It Works
Cannon Rotor	Cannon Rotor converts Orphie’s high crit pressure into explosive bonus hits: it boosts ATK and makes critical strikes deal an extra 200% ATK as bonus damage on a short cooldown. Orphie’s Core raises her CRIT Rate and her multi-hit lasers/Aftershocks massively increase proc chances, so critical bursts become potent finishers.
Marcato Desire	Marcato Desire pumps Orphie’s raw offense by granting an ATK buff whenever an EX Special or Chain Attack lands — exactly the moments Orphie shines. Since Orphie auto-triggers Crimson Vortex/Heat Charge and many skills count as Aftershocks, she reliably refreshes Marcato’s short ATK windows, turning laser spam into sustained amplified damage.

Orphie & Magus Drive Discs

Best Choice

4-Piece

Shadow Harmony 2-piece set: The DMG of Aftershocks and Dash Attacks is increased by 15%. 4-piece Set: Upon hitting an enemy with an Aftershock or Dash Attack, if the DMG dealt aligns with the equipper's attribute, the equipper gains 1 stack of a buff effect, at most once per use of a skill. For each stack, the equipper's ATK increases by 4%, and CRIT Rate increases by 4%. The effect can stack up to 3 times and lasts for 15s. Repeated triggers reset the duration.

2-Piece

Swing Jazz 2-piece set: Energy Regen + 20%

Shadow Harmony supercharges Orphie’s role by turning every Aftershock into both a damage nuke and a self-buffing trigger. With continuous procs, she rapidly stacks ATK and CRIT Rate, letting her maintain consistent high-pressure bursts without needing to stay on the field. This set essentially transforms her natural playstyle into a snowballing cycle of stronger and faster Follow-up damage.

Swing Jazz complements it perfectly by ensuring she has the energy to keep those Aftershocks flowing. The regen boost keeps her EX and Chain windows coming online more often, which in turn refreshes Shadow Harmony’s buffs.

Together, they create a loop: Swing Jazz fuels the uptime, while Shadow Harmony multiplies the output—making Orphie’s off-field sub-DPS role feel both explosive and reliable.

 

Orphie & Magus Drive Discs Stats

Main Stats

Main Stats	Drive Discs Slot	/
CRIT Rate / CRIT DMG	Slot 4	Orphie’s kit creates sharp burst “Aftershock” windows, so boosting Crit DMG multiplies those peaks more than flat ATK and raises her off-field one-shots.
DMG Fire / ATK	Slot 5	Orphie’s damage scales with Fire/ATK (Aftershocks are attribute-typed), so Slot 5 should favor Fire DMG when available, otherwise ATK to lift her base scaling.
Energy Regen	Slot 6	Her off-field EX/Special relies on having energy and a cooldown window; more Energy Regen = more frequent automatic Aftershock procs and steadier DPS uptime.

 

Sub Stats

Sub Stats	Priority
ATK	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ （Top）
CRIT Rate	⭐⭐⭐⭐ （High）
CRIT DMG	⭐⭐⭐⭐ (High)

Orphie & Magus Teams and Bangboo

Orphie & Magus Premium Team

DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Bangboo
Seed S-Rank	Orphie & Magus S-Rank	Astra Yao S-Rank	Mercury S-Rank

Seed plays the steady on-field carry while Orphie sits off-field and detonates Aftershocks into Seed’s damage windows; Astra Yao tops both with ATK/energy buffs to multiply those bursts, and Mercury the Bangboo keeps uptime and extra utility so the whole squad hits harder, more often.

 

Orphie & Magus Dual-DPS Team

DPS	DPS	Support	Bangboo
Orphie & Magus S-Rank	Soldier 0 - Anby S-Rank	Trigger S-Rank	Plugboo S-Rank

This dual-DPS shell leans on Anby’s on-field crit/stun pressure while Orphie supplies repeatable off-field Aftershock burst windows; Trigger chains crowd-control and timing so both DPS can combo into follow-ups, and Plugboo adds energy/procs to keep those Aftershocks and Chain Attacks coming for relentless, repeatable damage.
