In Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), Trigger is an S-Rank Electric Stun character who makes her return in the Phase 1 banner of the ZZZ 2.2 update, following her previous appearance in Version 1.6. She brings a powerful kit designed for players who enjoy high-precision and coordinated damage strategies.

Character Type: S-Rank Electric Stun
Debut in 2.2: Available in Phase 1 of Version 2.2 alongside the new character Seed

How Does Trigger’s Kit Work?

Hunter’s Gaze Mechanic

Trigger’s core mechanic revolves around Hunter’s Gaze stacks.

She gains Hunter’s Gaze stacks by using Aftershock or performing Finishing Moves in Sniper Stance.
Executing a Finishing Move in Sniper Stance grants 2 stacks of Hunter’s Gaze, boosting her performance significantly.

Coordinated Attacks for Extra Damage

One of Trigger’s strengths is her ability to execute coordinated attacks, which greatly increase overall damage output. This makes her an excellent choice for teams focusing on burst damage and synergy.

ZZZ Phase 1 V2.2 Seed & Trigger marks a significant milestone for Zenless Zone Zero players, bringing two powerful S-Rank characters and exciting banner opportunities. With the debut of Seed and the rerun of Trigger, alongside featured A-Rank characters Anby and Nicole, this phase is an excellent chance to upgrade your roster. Be sure to prepare your pulls and resources in advance to maximize your chances of success.
