Yixuan Best Weapons (W-Engines) In ZZZ

Yixuan in Zenless Zone Zero is always accompanied by a black bird. This bird assists her in combat and investigations, and bears the name Qingming. It is said that the Qingming Bird is a technique that Yixuan developed with her sister.

That's why the best W-Engine for Yixuan in ZZZ is called Qingming Birdcage. It's literally the little bird inside a golden cage. Unlike her signature weapon which fits her perfectly, the other viable weapons for Yixuan in Zenless Zone Zero are not very aesthetically pleasing compared to her design.

4 [Cinder] Cobalt

Base Stat	475 Base ATK
Advanced Stat	20% HP
W5 Effect	Upon entering combat or switching in, the equipper's ATK increases by 11.5% for 10s. This effect can trigger once every 20s.

[Cinder] Cobalt is a B-Rank W-Engine that works for Yixuan in ZZZ if players don't have any other alternatives. It gives HP from its sub-stat, which Yixuan needs to maximize her Sheer Force, and a passive that gives ATK. As a Rupture character, a part of Yixuan's ATK is still converted to Sheer Force, so although Yixuan scales better with HP, this passive is still useful.

3 Puzzle Sphere

Base Stat	594 Base ATK
Advanced Stat	25% ATK
W5 Effect	Upon launching an EX Special Attack, the equipper's CRIT DMG increases by 25.6% for 12s. Additionally, if the target's current HP is below 50% of their Max HP, EX Special Attack DMG increases by 32%.

Puzzle Sphere is a 4-star weapon that players can get from gacha or through crafting. This makes Puzzle Sphere both easy to get and easy to refine. Its passive is practically unconditional, where Yixuan's EX Special Attack will always have up to 25.6% extra Crit DMG, and when the enemy is below 50% HP, her EX Special Attack DMG is further boosted by 32%.

The only downside is that it has an ATK sub-stat instead of HP. Still, if players can get W5 of Puzzle Sphere, it's the best weapon for Yixuan behind her best-in-slot signature weapon.

2 Radiowave Journey

Base Stat	594 Base ATK
Advanced Stat	25% HP
Effect	When launching a Chain Attack or Ultimate, the equipper gains 1 stack of a buff effect. Each stack increases the equipper's Sheer Force by 80, stacking up to 3 times, and lasting 12s. The duration of each stack is calculated separately.

Radiowave Journey is a Battle Pass weapon in ZZZ that was added along with Yixuan's release in version 2.0. Naturally, this W-Engine serves as the available weapon for Rupture Agents to complete the Battle Pass' W-Engine lineup.

It has an HP sub-stat, which is perfect for Yixuan, but its passive is highly situational compared to Puzzle Sphere. To gain the Sheer Force buff from Radiowave Journey, Yixuan must use either Chain Attack or Ultimate. Since Yixuan can use two Ultimates back to back, she can get two stacks of buff often.

Meanwhile, for the Chain Attack condition, there are more variables. If Astra Yao is present in the team, she can enable Chain Attack with her ability, but if not, Chain Attack is achievable only by stunning the enemy. This makes a Stun unit crucial for the weapon's effect. This also makes Radiowave Journey more effective when fighting against small enemies.

1 Qingming Birdcage

Base Stat	743 Base ATK
Advanced Stat	30% HP
Effect	CRIT Rate increases by 20%. When the equipper launches an EX Special Attack, the character gains 1 stack of Qingming Companion effect, stacking up to 2 times and lasting 15s. On entering combat, immediately gain 2 stacks. Repeated triggers reset the duration. Each stack of the Qingming Companion effect increases the equipper's Ether DMG by 8%, and increases Ultimate and EX Special Attack Ether Sheer DMG by 10%.

Qingming Birdcage is the best weapon for Yixuan in ZZZ. It has a massive Base ATK, boosts her HP, and offers Crit Rate from her passive. Additionally, she can also stack Ether DMG and Sheer DMG bonuses for her Ultimate and EX Special Attack.
