Hollow Zero Guide

Master Hollow Zero in Zenless Zone Zero with Resonia strategies, Corruption management, and combat tips.

What Is Hollow Zero?

  • 1Hollow Zero is the primary endgame roguelike mode in Zenless Zone Zero.
  • 2Navigate through randomly generated floors filled with enemies, events, and rewards.
  • 3Collect Resonia buffs that enhance your agents for the duration of the run.
  • 4Manage Corruption levels -- too much Corruption causes debuffs and eventual failure.
  • 5Hollow Zero resets periodically, offering fresh challenges and seasonal rewards.
  • 6Completing higher difficulty tiers unlocks better rewards and exclusive materials.

Resonia System

  • 1Resonia are temporary buffs collected during Hollow Zero runs that empower your agents.
  • 2Each Resonia belongs to a category: Offense, Defense, Utility, or Synergy.
  • 3Combining Resonia of the same category unlocks powerful synergy bonuses.
  • 4Prioritize Resonia that complement your team composition and agent specialties.
  • 5Some Resonia are rare and only appear on specific floors -- learn which floors offer the best options.
  • 6You can reroll Resonia offerings using special items found during the run.

Corruption Management

  • 1Corruption accumulates as you progress through floors and take damage from certain enemies.
  • 2At high Corruption levels, your agents receive debuffs: reduced ATK, lower CRIT Rate, and more.
  • 3Corruption Cleanse stations appear on some floors -- prioritize using them when Corruption is high.
  • 4Certain Resonia reduce or negate Corruption buildup -- grab these when available.
  • 5Some agent abilities naturally resist Corruption -- Defense and Support agents are generally more resilient.
  • 6Managing Corruption is the key difference between completing and failing high-difficulty runs.

Combat Strategies

  • 1Build a balanced team with Attack, Stun, and Support agents for Hollow Zero runs.
  • 2Stun agents are critical for creating damage windows against tough Hollow Zero bosses.
  • 3Use the environment to your advantage -- explosive barrels and hazards deal extra damage.
  • 4Save EX Specials and Ultimates for elite enemies and floor bosses.
  • 5Learn enemy attack patterns -- perfect dodges grant significant advantages in extended fights.
  • 6Chain attacks between agents to maintain combo multipliers for higher damage.
