ZZZ All W-Engines | ZENLESS ZONE ZERO W-Engines
100 W-Engines documented — S-Rank, A-Rank & B-Rank
W-Engines are the weapons agents equip in Zenless Zone Zero; each is locked to one specialty — Attack, Stun, Anomaly, Support, Defense or Rupture — so a W-Engine only benefits agents who share that role. All 100 W-Engines are documented here (47 S-Rank, 38 A-Rank, 15 B-Rank), including the newest signatures Knight’s Extolment, Ode of Resurrected Wings and Joyau Dore. Check each agent’s build page for their recommended pick, or pair it with a Drive Disc set to finish the loadout.

ZZZ W-Engines — FAQ
What are W-Engines?
W-Engines are the weapons agents equip in Zenless Zone Zero. Each W-Engine has a rank (S, A or B), a base ATK stat, a substat and a passive effect, and is locked to one specialty — Attack, Stun, Anomaly, Support, Defense or Rupture — so it only benefits agents who share that specialty.
Can any agent equip any W-Engine?
No. A W-Engine can only be equipped by an agent whose specialty matches the W-Engine's specialty lock — an Attack W-Engine only fits Attack agents, a Support W-Engine only fits Support agents, and so on.
What is the best W-Engine in ZZZ?
There is no single best W-Engine — a signature engine is close to best-in-slot for the agent it was designed for, but not for anyone else. The newest signatures are Knight's Extolment for Sigrid, Ode of Resurrected Wings for Remielle and Joyau Dore for Velina.
Are A-Rank W-Engines worth it?
Yes. A-Rank W-Engines are craftable, F2P-friendly, and several — such as engines with CRIT Rate or ATK% substats — sit within 10-15% of a signature S-Rank's damage output when built and refined. They are the standard recommendation for agents without their signature.
How do you upgrade W-Engines?
W-Engines level up using Energy Modules and Denny, up to level 60, with stat breakpoints at levels 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60. Refinement (rank 1 to 5) requires duplicate copies or Power Supplies and increases the passive's effect without raising the base ATK or substat.
