Sigrid Build Guide: Zero Sigrid audio engine, driver disk and team strategy

Sigrid de L'Azur is an S-class ice attribute character that will appear in "Zenless Zone Zero/Zero Zero". He is affiliated with Airspace Patrol Department and serves as the deputy administrative director. Her combat positioning is very clear: focus on the front stage, trigger the Aerial Patrol Spear state through a variety of moves, and then connect with the strengthened basic attack Converging Spear to deal the main damage.

This guide will focus on Sigrid’s audio engine, driver disk, skill upgrades and team composition. If you just want to copy the homework quickly, you can first look at the flow chart below; if you want to understand why it is configured this way, the subsequent mechanism analysis will be more helpful.

Mechanism analysis: Why does she take the stand?

The core of Sigrid is not to simply rely on skills to make bursts, but to cycle around Aerial Patrol Spear and Converging Spear. Her fourth phase of basic attack, dodge and counterattack, enhanced special skills, support pursuit, combo skills and finishing skills all belong to the Unbridled Spear type of moves. After hitting an enemy, she triggers Aerial Patrol Spear, and releases Converging Spear in a short window with a long-press basic attack.

In other words, the output rhythm of Sigrid is more like "trigger state > long press to strengthen the basic attack > then refresh the state > hit again to strengthen the basic attack." She is not a fast-cutting character who leaves the field after throwing away her skills. Instead, she needs her teammates to provide damage, gain or resistance reduction first, and then let her take advantage of the entire output window.

She also has a very key survival and circulation point: during the first and second animations of basic attacks, she can automatically block enemy attacks, offset the damage and refresh Aerial Patrol Spear. This design makes her more stable when standing in the front office, and also allows skilled players to maintain the rhythm through close-fitting output.

When Sigrid releases a combo skill on an unbalanced enemy for the first time, it will enter the Formation Breaker state. This state will record the current stage of Converging Spear, and provide three additional enhanced basic attacks that can be released in quick succession, which is suitable for concentrated attacks within the imbalance window. Therefore, defeating characters is of great value to her.

Skill upgrade priority

Skills	priority	Reason
Core Skill / Core Technology	highest	Maximum level can provide permanent critical hit rate, and obtain a short-term high critical hit rate increase when Aerial Patrol Spear is triggered or refreshed.
Basic Attack / Basic attack	high	Converging Spear is the main source of damage, and the basic attack level directly affects the output.
Special Attack / Special skills	high	Strengthen special skills to participate in triggering core status, which also affects the cycle feel.
Chain Attack / Link Technology	high	Formation Breaker is strongly correlated with the imbalance outbreak window
Dodge / Dodge	in	Useful but scene-oriented, can be used later when resources are insufficient.
Assist / Support	in	It has auxiliary value for circulation, but its priority is lower than core output skills.

The core technology of Sigrid is very important. The reference mentioned that she has a considerable critical hit rate bonus with high-level core skills, and will also gain a short-term additional critical hit rate after triggering or refreshing Aerial Patrol Spear. Therefore, when cultivating, don't just focus on the critical hit rate on the panel, but be particularly vigilant about the overflow of the critical hit rate.

Best Audio Engine Recommendation

Sigrid is a strong attack character, which theoretically requires critical hits, critical damage and attack power. But because her own mechanism already gives a lot of critical hit rate, Yinqing chose to give priority to critical hit damage, attack power, resistance reduction or penetration gain instead of continuing to pile up critical hit rate without thinking.

Knight's Extolment

Knight's Extolment is the best choice for Sigrid, and it is also the exclusive audio engine that best suits her mechanism.

Project	Values and effects
Knight's Extolment	Image embedded in this table.
rarity	S-Rank
Basic attack power	713
Secondary attribute	Critical damage 48%
Core advantages	After a basic attack or enhanced special skill hits a critical hit, Battle Edge will be stacked to increase the critical hit damage; after the stack is full, Bonechill will be obtained, allowing the wearer to ignore part of the target's ice resistance in damage.

This sound engine is strong at two points: first, it gives Sigrid the critical damage that is most lacking; second, it continues to amplify her ice damage output by ignoring ice resistance. Since the core loop of Sigrid frequently uses basic attacks and enhanced special skills, the trigger conditions are also natural.

Other available audio engines

audio engine	Recommendation	Suitable for reasons
Severed Innocence	high	Provides high critical damage, and continues to increase critical damage after stacking; although some effects are partial to electric properties, the basic properties are still excellent
The Brimstone	high	Provides attack power bonus. Basic attack, sprint attack, and dodge counterattack can stack attack power after hitting it.
Gilded Blossom	Middle to high	A-level alternative, providing attack power and enhanced special skill damage, and the acquisition cost is relatively friendly
Starlight Engine	Middle to high	A-level universal attack sound engine, gain increased attack power through dodge, counterattack or quick support.

If you don't plan to draw a dedicated sound engine, just give priority to the choice with "high critical damage, stable attack power, and non-awkward triggering method". Sigrid is not suitable for continuing to pile up critical hit rate for the sake of looking good on the board, because in actual combat, her status critical hit rate can easily fill the upper limit.

Driver disk recommendation

Four-piece set: Dawn's Bloom

Sigrid The most recommended four-piece set is Dawn's Bloom. The two-piece set increases basic attack damage, and the four-piece set further increases normal attack damage after the attacking character uses enhanced special skills or finishing moves. This effect is almost written for the enhanced basic attack output of Converging Spear.

suit	Recommended location	Reason
Dawn's Bloom	4 piece set	Enhanced basic attack damage, in line with the core output axis of Sigrid
Polar Metal	2 piece set	Provides ice attribute damage, the most intuitive ice C damage increase
Branch & Blade Song	2 piece set	Provides critical hit damage, suitable for panels with sufficient critical hit rate
Puffer Electro	2 piece set	Provides penetration rate, suitable for high-defense or high-resistance environments
Astral Voice	2 piece set	Provide attack power, versatile and stable

Main terms and adverbs

Adverb entry priority suggestions are:

1. Critical damage

2. Attack power percentage

3. Critical hit rate

4. Penetration value

5. small aggression

The most important thing to emphasize here is the critical hit rate. Ordinary power-attacking characters are usually hungry for critical hits, but Sigrid’s mechanics will give her extra critical hits in actual combat. If you have been able to stably approach full damage in the status window, you should shift your resources to critical damage, attack power, and penetration gains.

Best team recommendation

Sigrid's additional abilities tend to work with break or support roles, and she requires more front-end time, so the best idea is Sigrid + break position + support position. The breakdown position is responsible for creating an imbalance window, the support position is responsible for increasing damage, reducing resistance, penetration or energy circulation, and Sigrid is responsible for filling the output in the window.

High team

Main C	Break / Assist	support
Sigrid	Norma	Astra Yao
Sigrid	Norma	Sunna
Sigrid	Dialyn	Astra Yao

The value of Norma and Dialyn lies in providing a strong imbalance window, while support roles such as Astra Yao and Sunna can make Sigrid's station output more concentrated. The focus of a high-level team is not to let everyone grab damage, but to let Sigrid fully unleash the enhanced basic attack and combo burst when the enemy is unbalanced.

A more friendly team formation

Main C	Break / Assist	support
Sigrid	Lycaon	Rina
Sigrid	Lycaon	Zhao
Sigrid	Dialyn	Nicole

Lycaon has a high degree of compatibility with Sigrid: he is an excellent breaking position and can provide help around the ice attribute system. The third party can choose Rina, Zhao or Nicole according to the account situation. Rina is more focused on penetration and general-purpose buffs, Nicole is more suitable for scenes that require gathering monsters or reducing defense, and Zhao depends on the specific mechanism and your existing level of practice.

Video extraction suggestions

From a cost-effective perspective, ordinary players can give priority to 0+1 or M1. If you only draw the character itself, Sigrid is still a mechanically complete ice attack master C; if you are willing to add more resources, the exclusive audio engine can well solve her most needed problems of dealing with critical damage and ice resistance. Heavy Krypton players can consider M6 as a target that truly changes the burst limit.

Practical methods and ideas

The basic loop of Sigrid can be summarized as:

Support position gain > Break through position to reduce toughness and balance imbalance > Sigrid's entry triggers Aerial Patrol Spear > Long press to release Converging Spear > Strengthen special skills or combo skills to refresh status > Enter Formation Breaker burst within the imbalance window.

When getting started, don't rush to press all the skills. The focus of Sigrid is to identify the blue window and stably connect with the enhanced basic attack; once you are proficient, you can pursue compressing movements when the enemy is unbalanced, play the special Converging Spear three times, and place the finishing move in the window with the most complete gain.

Summary: Is Sigrid worth cultivating?

If you lack the main C of the ice attribute, or like a front-end combo attack character, Sigrid is worth paying attention to. Her advantages are a complete mechanism, a clear rhythm on the field, a strong burst of imbalance windows, and the ability to improve front-end fault tolerance through the blocking mechanism. The focus of her construction is also relatively clear: less overflowing critical hit rate, more critical damage, attack power, ice damage and penetration.

The most recommended graduation direction is Knight's Extolment + Dawn's Bloom four-piece set + critical damage No. 4 + ice damage or penetration No. 5 + attack No. 6. In terms of teaming, just put her into the overloaded main C team of "Destroy + Support"; the higher the level of training and the better the imbalance window control, the easier it is for her output limit to be reflected.
