Velina Best Build Guide: Kit, Mats, W-Engines, Drive Discs & Team | ZZZ 3.0

Velina is one of the new Agents coming in Zenless Zone Zero Version 3.0, with the update currently expected to arrive around June 17, 2026. As a Wind Anomaly Slash character, she brings a totally fresh flavor to ZZZ’s roster, mixing Gale Field pressure, Wind Energy management, Assist Point tricks, and Anomaly-focused damage into one very stylish kit. This ZZZ Velina guide covers her skills, materials, build direction, W-Engine, and Cinema so you can prep without getting lost in the storm.

 

Overview

Rarity: S-Rank    Attribute: Wind    Specialty: Anomaly

Velina is a Wind Slash Anomaly character built around smooth fan combos, Assist Point spending, and constant field pressure. Her kit lets her flow from Basic Attack into Assist Follow-Up, then set up Gale Field once her Wind Energy is ready, dealing repeated Wind DMG while pulling the previous character back in through Quick Assist. She also has strong defensive flow with dodge-property EX attacks, Defensive Assist, and invulnerable follow-ups. Basically, she feels like a stylish off-field pressure unit who keeps the rotation breezy and busy.
